Telerik.Reporting Binaries not in Bin Folder After Publish

[Julie Jaegers]

I am using Silverlight 4 and render reports via Telerik Silverlight ReportViewer. Everything is working good but when I publish the ASP.NET Web Application the Telerik.Reporting.dll & Telerik.Reporting.Service.dll are not shown in my bin folder with all my other binaries. My ASP.NET Web Application references the following dll's shown below. The other two Telerik binaries are in my bin folder after publishing is completed. Why are my Telerik.Reporting binaries not? Right now I'm having to manually add them.

Telerik.Reporting.dll 
Telerik.Reporting.Service.dll
Telerik.Web.UI
Telerik.Windows.RaduploadHandler

Hi Julie Jaegers,

During the installation of Telerik Reporting on your machine, the Telerik assemblies are added to the GAC. When deploying a Web Application project the assemblies from the GAC are not copied automatically so you need to make sure that the assemblies physically exist in the bin folder of your application.

For more information check out the following help resources:

• Deploying Web Applications help article;
• How to: Set the Copy Local Property of a Reference MSDN article.

Kind regards,
Peter

I had to change the "Copy Local" property to True and now the assemblies physically exist in the bin folder of my application. THANKS!

After performing a Telerik upgrade I had to manually set the Copy to Local to True again for these two specific binaries. Is there a way to avoid having to remember to do this after each upgrade?

That is a problem of Visual Studio and not 3rd party products. I do not believe there is a way to avoid this, just accept that copying the needed assemblies to the bin folder is requirement..
