OK I tried to update everything at once... probably not the smartest thing in the world, but that's what we have this community for right? ;-)

Anyway, here we go a lot to explain.

I updated to the latest Telerik.Web.UI.dll and Skins.dll 2013.2.717.40 as of right this second. I also decided it would be a great idea to go ahead and update the OpenAccessORM as well to the latest version.. 2013.2.702.1....

So of course things are going to blow up, I expected that... what I didn't expect was this:

Server Error in '/ADotNET' Application.

I think I can safely say this is the first time I've ever seen this error.

Now the Telerik.Web.UI is not in the GAC. So I added the reference by browsing to the install directory.

Another fear of mine is that more than likely the page I'm trying to call is referencing custom .dll files that we wrote using an older version of OpenAccess. They are all class files, so I don't think I can use the awesome PublisherPolicy.cfg on anything that is just a class assembly.

So I will probably have to go back through all of those and update them individually which is a whole bunch of them... so if anyone does know of a better way to update OpenAccess references to newer versions on class assemblies.... please do tell :D

Anyway, back to the original issue above, I have double checked the bin file of my project and the Telerik.Web.UI.dll, etc.. files are there.
To make it worse, we have an Assemblies folder that we reference for all of the custom individual class assemblies that we write. If I move the Telerik.Web.UI.dll files and it's crew over to that file I then get this error instead.

Yes that's the browser file saying that it cannot find the Telerik.Web.UI.RadSessionPageStateCompression... I'm guessing that's just because it couldn't load the file from the reference folder we have... but even if that was the case shouldn't have copied the Telerik.Web.UI file from the non GAC reference that I specified???

Anyway lots of confusion and frustration going on...

Since I know you are going to want to see the web.config here it is.

Hi Dustin,

Thank you for writing us.

I am sorry to hear you are experiencing such issues.

You need to use the Upgrade References wizard to upgrade all OpenAccess assembly references in your project with the latest installed.

If you are referencing the OpenAccess assemblies from a specific folder the cause for the issue could be either not all of the updated assemblies are copied in this folder or the project is still referencing a different version of the OpenAccess bits. You could find this article helpful, it shows to use OpenAccess ORM without installing it.

In case the issue still occurs you can check this topic on general troubleshooting in order to check if your case is there: LINK

As to check if the error is changed we suggest to set the following tagPrefix in your webconfig file:

<add tagPrefix="telerik" namespace="Telerik.Web.UI" assembly="Telerik.Web.UI" />

Please let me know how it is going.

Dyanko
