“I finally was able to get the VseWSS 1.3 CTP that supports 64bit windows installed. Installation went pretty uneventful.

So I fire up VS 2008 and create a new WebPart project. All is going swimmingly so far.

Go to deploy the project KerPlunk!!! Get the “The communication object…..” error message. Shown below.

I seem to remember, some time ago that this message was related to WCF not being registered correctly. So after some research i came across running the following command

ServiceModelReg.exe –r” from your .NET installed directory. Mine is on 64 bit so the location was in the following location.

“C:WindowsMicrosoft.NETFramework64v3.0Windows Communication Foundation

After running you should see the following screen and you should now be able to deploy a solution from VS.

Hope this helps
