MySQL for Visual Studio exception (no replies)

Hello. I'm trying to link a MySQL Database to my Visual Studio C# project, but I've run into a few snags. In Visual Studio, when I try to connect to a database, it prompts me to update the configuration for MySQL for Visual Studio. If I click "Yes" and run the update tool, I get the unhandled exception "The Logger properties that define a log file path and name have not been set." Here are the details for the exception:

MySql.Utility.Classes.Logging.LoggerUndefinedLogFileException: The Logger properties that define a log file path and name have not been set.

If I click "No", when I try to pick a database from the database list, I get the error "Unable to retrieve the list of databases".

How do I solve this?
