Error in triplet x64 windows unable to find a valid visual studio instance

Vcpkg 2023-06-22-f19f3d9939100085fe2f7e41502d60b08e2083b6

Same error on build server.

Installed are:

Visual Studio Test Agent 2022 (17.6.4)
Visual Studio Build Tools 2022 LTSC 17.6 (17.6.4)
Visual Studio Build Tools 2022 (17.6.4)
Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0 with some DLL (dependency from unknown source)

On the two build tools installation, a listed pre-requisites have been installed and independently verified to be present.

Adding --debug showed that the following call is made:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\Installer\vswhere.exe" -all -prerelease -legacy -products * -format xml

Output below in details.

The file vcvarsall.bat can be found in the file system on:

c:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\BuildTools\VC\Auxiliary\Build
c:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Preview\VC\Auxiliary\Build

However, vcpkg install protobuf looks at other paths with VC in it:

error: in triplet x64-windows: Unable to find a valid Visual Studio instance
    at "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\BuildTools"
The following Visual Studio instances were considered:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\
The following paths were examined for Visual Studio instances:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\TestAgent\VC\Auxiliary/Build\vcvarsall.bat
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC/vcvarsall.bat

Changed VCPKG_VISUAL_STUDIO_PATH to:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\BuildTools
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\BuildTools\VC
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\BuildTools\VC\Auxiliary
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\BuildTools\VC\Auxiliary\Build
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\BuildTools\VC\Auxiliary\Build\vcvarsall.bat

None helped.

Looked at calls made from process monitor of sysinternals. Executables included:

vcpkg.exe
cmake.exe
vswhere.exe
vcpkg-2023-06-22.exe

The following paths are checked it seems:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\VC\bin\cl.exe
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\bin\cl.exe
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\TestAgent\VC\Auxiliary\Build\vcvarsall.bat
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\vcvarsall.bat

Strangely enough the other instances listed from vswhere.exe are excluded, solely the empty instance is studied which happens to include some VC components:

...
  <instance>
    <instanceId>VisualStudio.14.0</instanceId>
    <installationPath>C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\</installationPath>
    <installationVersion>14.0</installationVersion>
  </instance>
...

This raises the suspicion that the VS lookup code solely investigates in depth the first hit. But that was established without checking the code of vspkg.

Suggestion: It would be helpful when the error (at least with —debug) would include what alternatives were considered and skipped, and for the candidates studied what omission they were disqualified for use.

An empty virtual machine was started and solely the build tools were installed from Visual Studio. Vcpkg could install protobuf without problems.

As next step, the following components were uninstalled on the original device:

Microsoft Visual C++ 2015-2022 Redistributable (x64) — 14.36.32532
Microsoft Visual C++ 2015-2022 Redistributable (x86) — 14.36.32532
Microsoft Windows Desktop Runtime 3.1.10
Microsoft .NET Runtime 5.0.1 (x86)
Microsoft .NET Runtime 5.0.1 (x64)
Microsoft .NET Core 5.0.1 — Windows Server Hosting
Microsoft Build of OpenSDK with Hotspot 11.0.16.1+1

Using "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\Installer\vswhere.exe" -all -prerelease -legacy -products * -format xml it was confirmed that the instance with installationVersion 14 was still returned by vswhere.exe.

An investigation into the registry revealed that this instances seemed needed for instance for «AndroidPlatformTools,Xamarin», and countless others.

We removed the individual component: «MSVC v140 — VS 2015 C++ build tools (v14.00)» from both build installations. The instance with installationVersion was gone.

vcpkg install protobuf resulted in no longer trying that location:

error: in triplet x64-windows: Unable to find a valid Visual Studio instance
    at "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\BuildTools\Common7\IDE"
Could not locate a complete Visual Studio instance
The following paths were examined for Visual Studio instances:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\TestAgent\VC\Auxiliary/Build\vcvarsall.bat

But vcpkg still did not study the locations of the build tools.

As a next test, the Visual Studio Test Agent 2022 (2) (17.6.4) was uninstalled. The next run of vcpkg install protobuf had a nice surprise:

error: in triplet x64-windows: Unable to find a valid Visual Studio instance
    at "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\BuildTools\Common7\IDE"
The following Visual Studio instances were considered:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Preview
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Preview
The following paths were examined for Visual Studio instances:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Preview\VC\Auxiliary/Build\vcvarsall.bat

The test agent was no longer studied as expected, but it now also studied the folder of one of the build tools installations. This makes the suggestion stronger that solely one installation of Visual Studio is studied from some point on.

As a next step the installation in *Preview of Visual Studio Build Tools 2022 LTSC 17.6 (17.6.4) was uninstalled.

After that, the output for the first time mentioned the folder with *BuildTools:

error: in triplet x64-windows: Unable to find a valid Visual Studio instance
    at "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\BuildTools\Common7\IDE"
The following Visual Studio instances were considered:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\BuildTools
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\BuildTools
The following paths were examined for Visual Studio instances:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\BuildTools\VC\Auxiliary/Build\vcvarsall.bat

As the next step, we have removed the system environment variable VCPKG_VISUAL_STUDIO_PATH from the environment, and started a new console. In that console, again vcpkg install protobuf was executed.

This time everyting worked fine!

It seems that the root cause for this specific instance of the error was that vcpkg solely studies the first installation seriously from some point on (for instance after establishing that the folder exists). In case the first studied installation of Visual Studio does not meet the requirements, all other installations of Visual Studio seem to be ignored (as also seen in Processmon.exe), although these might be a great fit.

I think this can be considered a usability bug, but since the issue is already closed I will create a new one and link to this analysis. Report #32506

I am trying to start coding so I started watching the Cs50 course.
Now i am trying to use VsCode as my program editor because I know it’s pretty good and it is the same editor they use in the Cs50 lecture, but when i try to include libraries like stdio or cs50 it spits out «#include-Fehler erkannt. Aktualisieren Sie Ihren includePath. Wellenlinien sind für diese Übersetzungseinheit». I’ve tried a couple of things and now installed Vcpkg. While trying to install cs50 by typing «.\vcpkg install cs50» into my PowerShell Window i got the error message «error: while looking for cs50:x86-windows:
error: while loading cs50:
The port directory (C:\Users\felix\DEV\vcpkg\ports\cs50) does not exist» so i tried to install something else first to make sure it works.
I copied what the guy in my Youtube Video typed in to install sqlite3 but now i get the error message «error: in triplet x64-windows: Unable to find a valid Visual Studio instance
Could not locate a complete Visual Studio instance
The following paths were examined for Visual Studio instances:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Community\VC\Auxiliary/Build\vcvarsall.bat».
I added english as a supported language in Visual Stuio Installer but it didn’t help and all the other solution people talked about were not comprehendable for me.

I hope someone can help me and if you can please try to explain it in simple terms as i am failry new to this whole thing.
Sorry for my bad english and thank you all in advance

The error is looking for a Visual Studio 2022 Community installation, not VSCode. Do you have both installed?

Feb 6 at 19:27
When i open my Visual Studio Installer the only installed version is Vs Community 2022

Feb 6 at 19:38
Make sure you have Desktop development with C++ checked in the installer.

Feb 6 at 19:41
That fixes the problem I had but i still can’t include cs50

Issue

I am trying to fix the error I’m facing while running a rust program on my VScode as shown in the link below, install openssl and and set the paths using vcpkg by following the post:
Error: could not find native static library `ssl`, perhaps an -L flag is missing? on WIndows

According to the answer, I ran the following instructions through visual studio code terminal:

git clone https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg.git
cd vcpkg
.\bootstrap-vcpkg.bat

The above codes executed successfully but the code below to install openssl resulted in an error.

.\vcpkg.exe install openssl:x64-windows-static

error:

Error: in triplet x64-windows: Unable to find a valid Visual Studio instance
Could not locate a complete Visual Studio instance

How do I resolve the above error? I have cmake installed and functioning properly but still no luck trying to get vcpkg to install openssl.The paths mentioned in the link answer is also set and I am running all the codes above in the correct directory I made.

Directory where I ran the codes:

C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\wintun-maindtls\vcpkgfile\vcpkg>

Solution

Install the latest version of the Visual studio installer even if you have visual studio code installed.
Check the boxes to install desktop development tools for Linux and windows
Check the box to install C++ CMake tools as well
Then proceed with the installation.

I want to compile TFS on Windows (at commit 17bf6). I have installed vcpkg and Visual Studio community edition 2022.

I’m following github.com/otland/forgottenserver/wiki/Compiling-on-Windows to install required libraries.

At the end I get an error:

Error: in triplet x64-windows: Unable to find a valid Visual Studio instance
Could not locate a complete Visual Studio instance
The following paths were examined for Visual Studio instances:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Community\VC\Auxiliary/Build\vcvarsall.bat

BUT I have installed VS in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022 — I don’t understand why it fails to find it? Am I missing some VS components? Which ones?

Edit. Looks like I’m missing VC, but what is VC?
My folder C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Community doesn’t have any VC folder as in examined path:
VC\Auxiliary/Build\vcvarsall.bat

Fixed.

One has to install C++ CMake tools for Windows component.

@Evil Puncker Perhaps the wiki can be updated with this detail? I know it should be obvious but it’s not for everyone…
I don’t know how to contribute a change to wiki on github… or I don’t have rights.

visual studio should be installed with default settings and English lang pack, it seems like you had unselected all stuff that was selected by default or did they change the installer to not have stuff by default anymore?

@overdriven

It has the installing instruction recorded too, hope it helps!

seems like you had unselected all stuff that was selected by default

@Evil Puncker I don’t remember, I rather did not, but if you look at the video that ralke posted you’ll see that Desktop Development with C++ is not checked by default in VS 2022.

@Evil Puncker
I came back after a few years to compile master branch for experiments. Got the same problem as this guy following
