Hello,

There is a dedicated user on our FTP server, which will help you download Data Access Q2 2015. Our recommendation is to use FileZilla for the download.

------------------------------------------
The FTP client transfer mode should be set to Active.
You can use Explicit FTP over TLS if you need to secure your connection.
URL: ftpeu.telerik.com or IP address: 82.103.64.22
Username: DataAccess2015Q1
Password: Jh[[$Z$jwGe
------------------------------------------
Please keep in mind that the user account will expire in 15 days and all the files in the client folder will be deleted.

@Daniel,

Thank you for the kind words about the Visual Studio integration.

Your idea about turning Data Access into an open-source project is appreciated, and I strongly advise you to share it on our Ideas and Feedback portal. This will allow us to monitor the interest in it and to adjust according to our community's needs.

@Oscar,

I am sorry for the inconvenience you are experiencing.

The New Fluent Model wizard is part of the deprecated Visual Studio integration of Data Access. It is available in the Q1 2015 version placed in the FTP repository mentioned above. The Q2 2015 version, which is currently our latest official release is the first version that does not distribute the VS integration.

I hope this helps. Let me know if you need any additional assistance or information.

Hello deepBlue,

I am sorry for your frustration.

I can guarantee you that at the time present the FTP credentials are valid an provide access to the Q1 2015 installer. On your side you need to ensure that the FTP client transfer mode is set to Active (as in the active.png file).

Note that the expiration date of the credentials, currently, is August 7th.

The expiration date is part of the Telerik company policy about the community's access to the infrastructure.

I hope this helps.

I have just upgraded an existing pre Q2 DataAccess Project to Q2 using nuGet and that seems to be working correctly (at least I haven't encountered any issues yet.

I agree with others that taking out the visual editor is an odd decision as I purely use it to create my database into an entities model and then build my data access over the top for viewmodels (MVC 5.2)

I can see the decision to do this in respect to the likes of EF and others possibly dropping the feature for going with a purely "Code Only" approach but I much prefer doing my DB work in the DB environment (SSMS) and then POCO out viewModels over the top of this. Also could this have something to do with VS 2015 maybe changing something that the tools didn't work correctly so Telerik decided to drop it?

If there are no problems with providing a share to the file I can host it on one of my web servers (assuming Telerik are happy with that and it doesn't break any rules)

@deepBlue,

If you have a project with a fluent model generated with Q1 2015 and you install the Q2 2015 packages, out-of-the-box the integration will be a successful one. In the general case, Q1 2015 and Q2 2015 are compatible. This means that if you have an .rlinq file created with Q1 2015 (or earlier) and convert it to a fluent model using the workflow described here, it will be compatible with Q2 2015. If you have a service layer generated with Services Wizard, it will continue to work with Q2 2015, once you integrate it with the Core NuGet package.

@Jelly Master,

Thank you for your understanding.

Indeed, our idea behind deprecating the Visual Studio integration is to allow us to spend more time on important runtime features. Losing the complete code generation functionalities was necessary because they, as well as the rest of the integration, were dependent on the Visual Studio Add-in we used.

We do have the idea to make the situation a bit more developer-friendly and to introduce a (much simpler) tool that will fill the gap left by New Fluent Model Wizard. Therefore we will appreciate your support about it; the feature request is here. Besides liking the request, you can subscribe about receiving information for its progress through the Follow this item button.

Let me know if you need further information.

@Peter and @Joseph,

You can download the .msi installer of Data Access Q1 2015 by logging in your Telerik accounts and clicking on this link.

@matouk,

Due to the deprecation of the Visual Studio integration (starting from Data Access Q2 2015), there will be no implementation of the tools for Visual Studio 2015. There is, however, a feature request on our Ideas and Feedback portal about releasing a simple tool for generating fluent models, and a feature request for making Data Access an open source product. Your votes about them will be appreciated.

I hope his helps.

Doroteya,

I need Telerik Data Access Q1 2015, as I moved to a new dev machine (and installed Telerik Data Access Q2 2015), and I get .rlinq errors - "Cannot find resource EntitiesModel.rlinq embedded in assembly <xyz>, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null" all over the place at runtime. I understand that its because you have removed the Visual Designer in the Q2 2015 version (and there is no upgrade path?).

I found this thread and post by you http://www.telerik.com/forums/dataaccess-q2-2015-and-windows-xp. So, I uninstalled the Q2 2015 version. The link to download Q1 2015 version does not take me anywhere. And when I try to install the Q1 2015 version using the web installer saved from earlier, I get the "Hmmm. It seems this installer is a bit old ...." error. I wish I had downloaded that Q1 2015 msi when I had upgraded from Telerik ORM to Data Access Q1 2015 earlier this year. Dang!

Please suggest a way out to get the Telerik Data Access Q1 2015 msi. The FTP site downloads are all expired. The link (http://www.telerik.com/forums/www.telerik.com/account/your-products/download-file.aspx?fileid=18483) you posted on this thread gives a 404 error.

Thanks

Ruchi

Hello,

The installer of Data Access Q1 2015 is available for download from the Telerik account that were used for download of Data Access at least once before the release of Data Access Q2 2015 (June 24th, 2015). If the account you are currently using meets this requirement, you can navigate to the Data Access Q1 2015 installer like this:

1. Log in your Telerik account.
2. From the Products & Subscriptions menu select the Free products option.
3. Click the Download button in the Data Access Free section.
4. Select the All product versions option from the right hand-side of the page.
5. Choose 2015.1.225 from the listed Data Access versions.
6. Click the Automatic Installation option to trigger the download of the installer.

Additionally, on our side we are working on different options to resolve the situation with the availability of the Q1 2015 installer. Once it is available, it will be officially announced in the blog of Data Access.

Thank you for your understanding.

Hi,

Daniel and Steve now you should be able to download it from the download page or through Products and Subscriptions page.

@Steve - You have another options that was designed with Sitefinity clients in mind by using Telerik.DataAccess.Profiler NuGet package. It has the benefit that you do not to install anything on the client machine, but just start the profiler application and connect to your Sitefinity instance.

@Constantine - redistributing our installers is prohibited in Telerik Data Access End User License Agreement that you most probably have agreed to. Please do not share and publish any links to Telerik products unless you have written permission to do so.

@Oscar - most of the clients that have difficulties download the package have never downloaded it via their account so our system cannot verify that they are licensed to do it. Due to a limitation in our internal system we need a manual step in the process that is causing this Request-Response workflow that you are experiencing. Even with this limitation we are striving to serve all such requests.

My company currently uses Devex components

I am attempting to evaluate ORM components from different companies, and would like to download the Q1 2015 installer.

When I have installed Telerik.DataAccess.Core and am attempting to install Telerik.Dataaccess.fluent with nuget.

I receive this error

Install-Package : The element 'metadata' in namespace 'http://schemas.microsoft.com/packaging/2012/06/nuspec.xsd' has invalid child element 'developmentDependency' in namespace 'http://schemas.microsoft.com/packaging/2012/06/nuspec.xsd'. List of possible elem

I would prefer to try both if possible

Where can I download q1 2015 and what is the issue with fluent?

answered on 22 Dec 2015, 02:56 PM

Hello Bill,

Thank you for contacting us.

The error on your side usually happens when you are using a relatively old version of NuGet Package Manager. In order to troubleshoot it on your side, I would suggest updating NuGet Package Manager on your side.

Regarding, Data Access Q1 2015, in general I would advise you to use it only in the database-first scenario when you create a fluent model. The consideration here is that the Visual Studio integration delivered with this version is a legacy feature that is deprecated in Data Access Q2 2015. Since the latter version, Data Access is distributed only through its NuGet packages.

With that said, currently you should be able to download Data Access Q1 2015 from here.

I hope this helps.
