Installation Troubleshooting

Reboot required

Chocolatey report a failure to install. This can be because of a pending reboot (error code 1116).
Work around: Reboot and try again

Timeout

Installations taking more than 45 minutes will be killed by chocolatey
Work around 1: Extend timeout: choco install visualstudio2015enterprise --execution-timeout=3600
Work around 2: Use local installation media (see below)

Versioning

Given the pattern major.minor.build.revision, the nuget package follows the convention of

major = visual studio major
minor = visual studio minor
build = visual studio build
revision = nuget package version

Local Installation Media

By default, the above commands will download the install media from the Internet. To save bandwidth or increase deployment speed, paths to local installation media may be specified via environment variables.

Specify iso image path (Windows 10 & 2012 only) with Powershell:

$env:visualStudio:isoImage="c:\users\bob\downloads\vs2015.2.ent_enu.iso"

Alternatively, specify path to an unzipped iso image:

$env:visualStudio:setupFolder="D:\vs2015\"

MyGet

Build.ps1 compiles all packages and places them in the .artifacts folder. This is consumed by a myget feed

MyGet feeds are built off master branch before pushed to chocolatey itself

To install from the MyGet feed use a command like choco install visualstudio2015enterprise --source=https://www.myget.org/F/chocolatey-vs/api/v2
