Adding Commerce to a Site Created with the Visual Studio Extension

I've been struggling with this for the last couple of hours, is there a detailed guide out there for adding commerce to a CMS project created in visual studio?

So far I've tried:

  • Deployment Center doesn't recognize the site if I add it to IIS, the site starts up fine and I can log in and access our work.
  • Tried installing via the nuget (just an attempt) it says that it can't find the catalog.
  • I've tried manually merging configuration from a working deployment center site into our project... and proved that I am not super human.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

James

Hi James,

Installing it via Nuget will not install Commerce Manager, the ECF or the database. So you will need to go via the deployment center. The problem you are facing is probably that you are using a different version of CMS than what the deployment center supports (7.5).

I would install a new CMS + Commerce site via deployment center, upgrade it via nuget to the latest version for BOTH the CMS site (use EPiServer.Commerce Nuget package for this one) and Commerce Manager (Commerce.Manager Nuget package), then start transfer over my code from the old stand alone project.

Adding in Commerce into an existing site is hard as you need to modify a lot of configs and copy the right files to the right location to make it work.
