Hi, I'm posting this question here because there is no way to post a question on the Visual Studio Developer Community, all the questions there about Dynamics 365 were closed with a link to this forum, and I'm not finding anything elsewhere about these particular settings.
I am trying to use the Dynamics 365 extension in Visual Studio 2019. I was able to install the Microsoft.Dynamics.Framework.Tools.Installer.vsix and I now have the Extensions > Dynamics 365 menu. However, whenever I try to Create a new project from Finance Operations template, or Continue without code and try to access it, the Dynamics 365 menu, a 'Manage Local XPP Configurations' box opens, with invalid (blank or non-existent item) fields highlighted.
When it originally opens, the 'Folders for reference metadata has the value 'C://ASamplePath//PackagesLocalDirectory' which doesn't exist; I noticed that a 'C://AOSService//PackagesLocalDirectory' folder does exist, so I changed it to that. Also since 'Folder for your own custom metadata' was blank, I created a root folder 'DP' and selected that. I'm clueless as to what should be entered for 'Cross reference database server...' (since I am not yet looking to connect to any database server) and 'Application version...'
