I recently connected my project to Source Anywhere Hosted, and was successful using source code integration successfully until I shut down Visual Studio. Now when I open my solution inside of visual studio, the software appears to connect to each of the projects successfully, but then hangs with the message "Updating Source Code Control Status" in the status bar. There is no network activity (that I can tell), and the process is not consuming resources.

I'm on build 12046.

For big solution, VS 6.0 may hang for a while to update source code control status. Did you wait long enough?

How many files are in your solution?

Thanks.

There are probably about 3000 files, and I waited over 24 hours.

It is of note that I had previously integrated with SourceAnywhere in this same workspace file (on a free account), then switched back to VisualStudio for a period of time. When I switched back to SourceAnywhere (this time with a paid account) was when the problem started occurring.

I think that I upgraded SourceAnywhere during that hiatus as well.

Thanks,
Kevin

YaY! YOU FRIGGIN ROCK! Thank you so much! You dont know how bad this was affecting my work!

Because you helped me so much, I'm gonna return the favor and help those who dont know how to update the hosts file.

We have Visual Source Safe 2006 and Visual Studio 2008.
Our VSS database is on a network drive.

Step 1 - Determine which server\computer the VSS Database is on:
In Visual Studio 2008 select File->Source Control->Change Source Control. Note the "Server Name". You're only interested in the server name which is the value between the beginning back slashes and the next backslash. In my case it is dddmisfile
\\dddmisfile\vssdatabase\FocusDD
Step 2 - Determine the ip address of the server: Open a Command Prompt (start->Run type cmd and press enter) and ping your server name (type ping YOURSERVERNAME in the command prompt box). I typed ping dddmisfile and this is what I got:
c:\>ping dddmisfile

The IP Address you are interested in is the one that follows Reply from
In My case its 10.104.49.10

You're also interested in the fully qualified domain name: which is the name of the server with the domain appended to it. In My case its dddmisfile.azdes.gov

Step 3 - Add a line to your hosts file with any text editor Open the file with notepad. Type this in the run box (Start->Run)
C:\WINDOWS\NOTEPAD.EXE C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\etc\HOSTS
This is what I see before I modify it:
# Copyright (c) 1993-1999 Microsoft Corp.
#
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
#
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
#
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
#
# For example:
#
# 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server
# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host

127.0.0.1 localhost
To add your server name to this list, simply add a new line and type the ip address then press tab then the fully qualified domain name:
10.104.49.10 dddmisfile.azdes.gov
Thats it! Close Notepad and you're done! Dont even need to reboot!
Dont for get to save your changes!

Thanks very much for sharing the info, dogle.
