Unable to Install from Nuget

[Michael]

Not sure if this is the right place to put this, but I'm currently having issues installing Kendo.Mvc 2015.2.602 from Nuget.

I get the following error:

Could not install package 'Kendo.Mvc 2015.2.602'. You are trying to install this package into a project that targets '.NETFramework, Version=v4.5.2', but the package does not contain any assembly references or content files that are compatible with that framework. For more information, contact the package author.

I was under the impression Kendo.Mvc was compatible with .NET 4.5.2. Am I wrong? Is this a bug? When I add the reference manually (by extracting the lib from the .nupkg file) and try to use the HtmlHelpers, I get the error "Cannot Resolve symbol "Kendo" even when @using Kendo.Mvc.UI.

If anyone has any guidance on this, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Hello Michael,

What is the MVC version that you have in your project? Would it be possible to send us the sample that we can test and reproduce the issue?

Hi Kiril,

 

You were right to consider the version of MVC first! It turns out the nuget package is for MVC 6, not MVC 5 (which is what my project was in). I followed the install instructions for MVC 5 and now everything works as expected.

 

Thanks.

Hi,

Iam getting this type of error

Could not install package 'Kendo. Mvc 2015.2.602'.

The version of MVC  that Iam using is 5.2.7.0

If any one can help me with this issue,I would greatly appreciate it

Hi Renuka,

The old version from 2015 you are trying to install does not support the newest MVC version (5.2.7.0). Since you are using 5.2.7.0, we would recommend installing the latest official UI for ASP.NET MVC version: 2020.2.513.
