Hi
 
After updating my Devforce assemblies on the server to 6.1.1.0 from 6.0.9.0 I am no longer able to run my app. The setup is like this:
 
All Devforce assemblies is deployed to the GAC
All App assemblies is deployed to the GAC
 
The bin folder is empty - and this seems to be a problem when probing the assemblies for af valid license key. A problem which has appeared after the update.
 
This is what the log looked like before the update - when everything was ok:
 
And after the update:
 
As a note: I know that the log containing the error is probing for a 4.0.0.2 version of the assembly and not a 4.0.0.1 version like in the first log. This is not the cause of the problem, but an attempt to se if updating the version number of the assembly would help somehow.
 
Can you confirm if there is a problem with the 6.1.1.0 version and the license key when deploying to the GAC?
 
Best regards,
Rasmus

Hi Rasmus;

"The bin folder is empty - and this seems to be a problem when probing the assemblies for a valid license key. A problem which has appeared after the update."

Could you clarify this statement? I'm not sure I understand. If the bin folder is empty, that will explain why the various assemblies can't be found. But are you saying the bin folder is empty for a reason?

Hi Dennis
 
The bin folder is empty, since all the binaries are deployed to the GAC. But this was not an issue before upgrading to 6.1.1.0.
 
Best Regards,
Rasmus

Hi Rasmus;

I see. At this point, my suggestion would be to use Fusion Log Viewer ( http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/e74a18c4%28v=VS.100%29.aspx - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/e74a18c4(v=VS.100).aspx ) to see in more details the assembly binding your application performs and why it can't find those 3 assemblies. This tool has helped me quite a bit previously. Please keep me updated with what you find.

Hi
I have used Fusion log viewer but it shows no errors when binding the assemblies:
If I move the assemblies (the NextStay.XXX assemblies) to the bin folder everything works. It seems as if the newer versions of DevForce cannot probe the assemblies in the GAC. This is from my web.config:
Can you confirm that the newer versions of DevForce, probes the GAC for assemblies containing the license key?
Best regards,
Rasmus

I can confirm that this bug was introduced in version 6.1.0.  We'll get this fixed in the next release, 6.1.3, coming in a few weeks.
 
Until then, the workarounds are to either place the assemblies in the bin folder, or use the full path and file name in the probeAssemblyName instead of the assembly qualified name.
