Hi,
Have been trying for most of the day to install the latest build of Prometheus, but although I can add it to my project, and add it to the toolbar, when I try and drag a control from the toolbar to the page I get the following error:
'Control cannot be created because Visual Studio cannot find the control's type in the control assembly.'

What needs to be done to fix this?

Hi Matthew,

Although I can not say for certain where the exact source of the issue can be, can you please try adding the controls to your VS Toolbox manually to see whether this alleviates the abnormality? Step by step instructions for that can be found in this topic from the online documentaiton:

http://www.telerik.com/help/radcontrols/prometheus/?installAddingToVSToolboxNET2.html

Alternatively, you may try to add reference to the corresponding assembly manually to the /bin folder of your web site (before dragging the controls from the VS toolbox).

Stephen,
the automatic install has never worked for me :(
So I have done it manually, I have tried removing the Telerik.Web.UI.dll and adding it before and after adding the controls to the toolbar. I have rebooted, reinstalled VS2005, as a last ditch effort I am going to download VS2008 beta. Do you have any other suggestions before I try this?

Hi Matthew,

I am sorry to hear that my directions were not helpful enough, however I am running out of ideas here. You may double-check whether one of the suggestions from my previous reply help (after closing and restarting VS 2005) or download the VS 2008 RTM (which was released the previous week) and test again under the new development environment.

Kind regards,

Try:

1- Remove previous versions from the GAC (optional)
2- Install Telerik.Web.UI.dll Telerik.Web.Design.dll and Telerik.Charting.dll to the GAC
3- Re-add the controls to the ToolBar.

It should be fixed then.
