[Solved] The config file reference for assembly '<assemblyname>' could not be resolved. Make sure that the referencing assembly uses at least one class of the referencing assembly as otherwise the compil

Good day all!

I have this exception when I try to DB connect.

I have several dlls such as:

1. Interfaces.dll - declares some interfaces, which are realized by some entities in Entities.dll Also it used some Entities from Entities.dll for using in Interface-methods

2. Entities.dll - describes all DB-Entities (as Persistent classes). Some Persistent classes are realized some Interfaces from Interfaces.dll

3. DBHandler.dll - describes DB-connect, and work with Scope (GetScope, GetInstance, etc.)

4. Application.exe - run DB-Connect methods from DBHandler.dll

so, I have such References in my dlls:

1. Interfaces.dll references to --> Entities.dll

2. Entities.dll --> Interfaces.dll

3. DBHandler.dll --> Entities.dll and Interfaces.dll

4. Application.exe --> Entities.dll and Interfaces.dll and DBHandler.dll

I know It is not very good to have circular references in Entities.dll and Interfaces.dll

But I tried to "disconnect" Intefaces from Entities - and still had the same exception.

Please, Ask what I do incorrect?

Thanks all

I only Re-created App.config files

And now all good.
