PHP Tools fails to install with Visual Studio Community 2017
Posted: March 30th, 2018, 2:16 am
Hello,
I just installed Microsoft Visual Studio Community 2017, Version 4.7.02556, rebooted, and then tried to install phptools.1.27.10707.msi but it fails with this alert window message:
[PHP Tools for Visual Studio] /!\ This add-in requires Visual Studio 2010, 2012, 2013 or 2015 to be installed. Express edition is not supported.
Screenshot: https://www.screencast.com/t/oME5uG54VWW
Note: Both of these were downloaded from their respective sites today 2018-03-29. So it *SEEMS* that the PHP Tools is way out of date since the alert message mentions version 2015 and "Express," and today it is 2018 and the version is "Community."
How can I use PHP Tools with Visual Studio Community 2017?
Thank you,
Chris
