New Post: AjaxControlToolkit The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference

jasonkelly — Tue, 24 Feb 2009 19:39:19 GMT

Hello ID,

Our developer says the following could help solve the problem:

The reason is :

There are a web site application and a class library named "controls" in the teambuilder solution. Looks like this person has only added the the AjaxControlToolkit into the website,actually the class library which is named "controls" also needs the latest version of toolkit.

So please add the latest toolkit to both web site and class library, then add the "control" library to the website over again to make sure the control.dll is the latest version in the website. After that please rebuild the solution.

Hope this is helpful for the problem.

New Post: AjaxControlToolkit The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference

ivodurchev — Fri, 30 Jan 2009 00:20:45 GMT

I have the latest version of the AjaxControlToolkit but when I add reference to the website I get this error:
"Could not load file or assembly 'AjaxControlToolkit, Version=3.0.11119.25533, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=28f01b0e84b6d53e' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040) "
I have tried everything I could think of including registering the AjaxControlToolkit in the GAC but no joy. What is referencing this particular version of the toolkit and how can I change it to use the latest one?

Thanks

Zaben — Sat, 01 Nov 2008 03:32:35 GMT

In the class CollisionUtil for MetaliqSilverlightSDK needs some changes to work with silverlight 2 RTW

public static bool CheckCollision(FrameworkElement ControlA, FrameworkElement ControlB)
{

// first see if sprite rectangles collide

Rect BoundingBoxA = ControlA.GetBounds();

Rect BoundingBoxB = ControlA.GetBounds();

BoundingBoxA.Intersect(BoundingBoxB);

if (BoundingBoxA == Rect.Empty)

{

// no collision - GET OUT!

return false;

}

else

{

bool bCollision = false;

Point ptCheck = new Point();

// now we do a more accurate pixel hit test

for (int x = Convert.ToInt32(BoundingBoxA.X); x < Convert.ToInt32(BoundingBoxA.X + BoundingBoxA.Width); x++)

{

for (int y = Convert.ToInt32(BoundingBoxA.Y); y < Convert.ToInt32(BoundingBoxA.Y + BoundingBoxA.Height); y++)

{

ptCheck.X = x;

ptCheck.Y = y;

// List<UIElement> hits = (List<UIElement>)ControlA.HitTest(ptCheck); will not work in Silverlight 2 RTW replace it with bellow

List<UIElement> hits = (List<UIElement>)VisualTreeHelper.FindElementsInHostCoordinates(ptCheck, ControlA);

if (hits.Contains(ControlA))

// we have a hit on the first control elem,

// now see if the second elem has a similar hit

New Post: Where is Script# v0.4.5.0

lkuhn65 — Thu, 11 Sep 2008 16:05:43 GMT

I tried to get v0.4.5.0 from the link on codeplex, but I got this:

This project is not yet published

As of now it looks like download of an msi is available at: http://projects.nikhilk.net/ScriptSharp/Default.aspx - however it is a later version - 0.5.1.0 - so this will take some fiddling to get working now it seems. It would have been nicer to include dependencies within the download so that the project would build right from the get-go, or at least include details about this pre-req on the "Deployment Guide" page.

New Post: error in SocialNetwork.WebSite

wangpengcn — Thu, 17 Jul 2008 15:12:07 GMT

I am using VS Web Developer 2008 to rebuild the SocialNetwork.WebSite, but have some problems. I'v added all needed dll files, i.e. rsstoolkit, ajaxtoolkit, livenet, antixsslibrary, and all dll files generated by the other SocialNetwork sub-projects.
When I ran build, I got an error:
Error 1 Unknown server tag 'cc1:RssDataSource'. C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\QuickApps 7.0\WLQuickApps.SocialNetwork\WLQuickApps.SocialNetwork.WebSite\Controls\BlogHeadlines.ascx 17

After I specified the full path of the namespace in BlogHeadlines.ascx, i.e. <%@ Register Assembly="RssToolkit" Namespace="RssToolkit.Web.WebControls" TagPrefix="cc1" %>, then the error became:
Error 1 The type or namespace name 'GenericRssElement' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?) C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\QuickApps 7.0\WLQuickApps.SocialNetwork\WLQuickApps.SocialNetwork.WebSite\Controls\BlogHeadlines.ascx.cs 52 9 C:\...\WLQuickApps.SocialNetwork.WebSite\
Error 2 'RssToolkit.Web.WebControls.RssDataSource' does not contain a definition for 'Channel' C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\QuickApps 7.0\WLQuickApps.SocialNetwork\WLQuickApps.SocialNetwork.WebSite\Controls\BlogHeadlines.ascx.cs 36 66 C:\...\WLQuickApps.SocialNetwork.WebSite\

I think there is a namespace problem here, but dont know how to fix. Any advice and help is appreciated.

NEW POST: Is microsoft supporting these apps, and for how long?

TorchTheMall — Fri, 16 May 2008 15:09:29 GMT

I am wondering if these are being supported, as video.show uses microsoft expression encoder installed on the server and I have been having trouble getting that to even install on a VPS I am renting thats running windows server 2003 under a paralells virtuozzo virtual server (not my choice between paralells or MS virtual server).

anyway, you would think you would be able to find a place to host that application for 40 bucks a month, but so far I haven't been able to get it working anywhere but my local machine.

Also, the hosting that is offered for free on the bottom of this project page (Verio) is a little misleading. I went and signed up for an account with them too, seeing that they say

"Your Free Website is Compatible with the Following: - Microsoft Expression"

however after signing up for the paid hosting (since they only give you a single DNS server ip with the instructions for the free service and my domain name provider requires 2) I found that their windows hosting that they call "windows virtual web servers" are not accessible via remote desktop, do not have microsoft expression available for encoding, and as far as i can tell there is no way to install it on this server, or even run an .exe. "Expression" they use as a blanket term to refer to the frontpage-like app "Expression Web", because it must have server extensions like frontpage did or something similar.

So its really misleading perhaps since I have been trying to find a reasonably priced virtual server to install expression Encoder on and then when I see "COMPATIBLE WITH EXPRESSION" and a link to the host from the quick apps page, I of course assume that they would meet the requirements of all the projects on this page, but they do not.

Also, I have yet to hear if video.show (or any other of these blueprint/quick apps that might use expression encoder) are going to support expression encoder 2 that has just been released. From the codeplex page its hard to tell if there will be another release of that reference application.

Anyway, I am hoping that you guys see this and really try to get these example applications to the point where they are usable out of the box, so people can worry about learning the new tech in them (LINQ, .net 3.5, ajax) rather than spending two weeks in the expression forums, codeplex forums, hosting provider customer support... and still unable to get a reasonably priced hosting solution that will work for it. It seems to be a high cost of entry for an open source starter kit. I dont mind buying encoder for 300 bucks, but I dont want to pay that every month or more to host it, at least not during development.

Thanks, the code is great - I really want it to work out too, so maybe put yourself in a average joe who rents hosting shoes and evaluate these from that position. And the Verio thing is kinda bogus I think. Might want to look into that.
