I upgraded a project to use the 2013 Q1 Telerik dlls and now am receiving the 'unable to find embedded skin 'Vista'.  The project works fine on my machine, but errors out when I move it to the test environment.  The project was upgraded to use the 4.5 framework, but had to be reverted to 4.0, not sure if this could be causing the issue.  Steps I have taken to troubleshoot:

  1. Made sure I had the same versions of telerik.web.ui.dll and telerik.web.ui.skins.dll
  2. Verified they both were present in the bin folder on the test site
  3. Deleted the site and recreated it
  4. Deleted my bin folder and re-added my references
  5. Used different skins such as Vista, Office2010Blue, and Web20

Any ideas what I am missing here or what else I could try?

Hello Ryan,

This seems to be an issue with the reference of the RadControls DLL files in your project. For example it may be possible that you have successfully updated the old DLLs in your BIN folder, but the project references some of the DLLs from the GAC, which are different version.

Please find attached a short video that demonstrates how to check the DLL references in your Visual Studio project.

What I can suggest you is to have a look at this blog post, that gives you 6 easy steps on how to upgrade/revert your version of RadControls.

Thanks,

I am not sure what was happening.  I ended up rebuilding a new project, transferring all the files, then re-adding the references (exactly how I was previously doing it) and everything works fine.  I think it might have just been an issue with the project because the same telerik dll's work in the new project.
