OpenAccess.35.Extensions old version reference error

[João]

Hello,

I'm trying to update Telerik.OpenAccess dll's but I'm having an error when I build the solution.

----------------------------- 

Error 6 Could not load file or assembly 'Telerik.OpenAccess.35.Extensions, Version=2012.3.1209.1, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=7ce17eeaf1d59342' or one of its dependencies. General Exception (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131500)

------------------------------------- 

I just replaced /Telerik_OpenAccessORM folder dll's from version 2012.3.1209.1 to version 2015.1.255.1.

After trying to update telerik.openaccess references version on .csprojs with no success, I tried to changed .config file to 

"redirect binding" to new versions of Telerik.OpenAccess.dll, Telerik.OpenAccess.Runtime.dll and Telerik.OpenAccess.35.Extensions.dll like the example:

   

<runtime>
 <assemblyBinding xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1">
 <dependentAssembly>
  <assemblyIdentity name="Telerik.OpenAccess.35.Extensions"
     publicKeyToken="7ce17eeaf1d59342"
     culture="neutral"/>
  <bindingRedirect oldVersion="2008.0.0.0-2015.1.225.1"
                         newVersion="2015.1.225.1"/>
  </dependentAssembly>
 </assemblyBinding>
 </runtime>

What am I missing?

Thanks in advance

Hi João,

The error you experience happens when Enhancer, which came with the 2012.3.1209.1 version of Telerik Data Access resolves the Telerik.OpenAccess.35.Extensions assembly with the 2015.1.225.1 version (by design each version of Enhance is bound to the corresponding version of the Data Access assemblies). 

Since you mention a Telerik_OpenAccessORM folder, I assume that your application is configured as described in this documentation article. If this is the case, you need to update the Enhancer tool as well, in addition to the assemblies. With version 2015.1.225.1, the tool will be available in one of the following locations (depending on the architecture of your machine - x86 or x64):

C:\Program Files\Telerik\Data Access\sdk

or

C:\Program Files (x86)\Telerik\Data Access\sdk

I hope this helps. Let me know if my assumption is not correct or if you need further information.
