EntryPointNotFoundException !

[Jean-Yves]

Hi,

I'm trying Kendo UI for ASP.NET MVC on a MVC 4 project.
But I get an error at the end of your introduction (http://www.kendoui.com/documentation/asp-net-mvc/introduction.aspx)


When I put the 

@(Html.Kendo().DatePicker().Name("Birthday"))

My MVC project stop with this exception : System.EntryPointNotFoundException  


The wired thing is that with 

@(Html.Kendo().Calendar()

        .Name("calendar")

        .Min(new DateTime(2010, 1, 1, 10, 0, 0))

        .Max(new DateTime(2015, 1, 1, 20, 0, 0))

        .Value(DateTime.Now)

        )

I don't get any error!


Do you have any idea about this issue?
I'm missing something?

Thank you

Hi Jean,

I am not sure what causes the problem in your application. Could you please provide a sample project that could be examined in details? This way I will be able to observe the problem and advice you further. Thank you in advance.

Hello, 

Of course i can provide you a sample.

Here it is:http://dl.free.fr/kcLLr211S

Let me know :)

For information I'm on Windows 8 with VS Premium 2012 RC

Re Hello!

I found something!!! (I was thinking about it all day!)
I think it was a compatibility issue.

Yes, I just tried with an MVC 3 project and It's working perfectly.

So I add this (in the main web.config)

<runtime>

  <assemblyBinding xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1">

    <dependentAssembly>

      <assemblyIdentity name="System.Web.Mvc" publicKeyToken="31BF3856AD364E35" />

      <bindingRedirect oldVersion="1.0.0.0-3.0.0.0" newVersion="4.0.0.0" />

    </dependentAssembly>

  </assemblyBinding>

</runtime>

And now It's working in my MVC4 project!!!

Thanks Jean-Yves.

I had similar problem with menu. It was giving me an error:

System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException was unhandled by user code
Message=Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection.
Parameter name: index

with code:

@(Html.Kendo().Menu()

     .Name("menu") //The name of the menu is mandatory. It specifies the "id" attribute of the widget.

     .Items(items =>

     {

         items.Add().Text("Item 1"); //Add item with text "Item1")

         items.Add().Text("Item 2"); //Add item with text "Item2")

     })

 )

... but this bindingRedirect helps also in this case. 

I've got VS 2010 SP1 + MVC 4 RC

I thought this was corrected after reading this post, but unfortunately not.  In my case there was already an assembly redirect and it still fails with the same error.  Any other ideas?  I'm hoping I don't have to revise my project to MVC 3, that will be a big pain.

UPDATE: Sorry looks like it was my own bone-headed move where I had messed up a redirect further up in the chain and the MVC redirect wasn't being applied. 

I probably never would have figured out my root issue without this post, so I'd like to thank Jean-Yves and suggest he get some "Telerik Points" for figuring this one out.

Thanks!
