And it doesn't work...get a 500 error (internal error)

Well, by golly, that's a new one.  Give me a bit...

OK, what I have found so far is that the DLL version referenced does not exactly match the binary for the DLL that was found... does the machine have MicroFour License Base.dll in the GAC?  It might need to be removed, or the one that is in that ZIP file might need to be put into the GAC.

No Microfour dlls in the GAC. (c:\windows\assembly right?)

Greg,

We do not store any of the MicroFour assemblies in the GAC when installing the ES.  It actually reduces the complexity of the ES and installation process and ultimately makes it easier to migrate a single ES server forward while leaving another in tact in the future.  You will find the MicroFour DLLs in the Bin folder of the ES install.

Got it. That is good. I was checking because Ben is trying to run down a problem I'm having and (I think) he wanted to make sure I didn't have some other version hanging around in GAC. Any progress on that Ben? Anything I need to do/test?

Status on this? I'd really like to get this resolved in the next day or so.

I was pretty sure that Ben had already given you a resolution on another thread and had posted the assemblies for you.  So I am not sure of anything outstanding here.

That would explain the lack of a response!



OK, I'll recap (all in this thread, if more details needed)....



- I was getting the Null argument error

- Ben posted dll with the fix

- I then got another error, ben apparently didn't do build right with obfuscation

- Ben posted full ES folder

- I then got this error:

[quote/Could not load file or assembly 'MicroFour License Base, Version=1.6.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=7bb29517c3189d04' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)[/quote]

- Ben had some idea about what problem was, but....

- I think I got confused here, thinking Ben wanted me to check GAC, but I think he actually was suggesting putting the license base in GAC???



Anyway that as far as we got, and I'm still stuck with the quoted error above. I got side tracked on something else but I'm back on this now. So, what do I try next?



Thanks!

If you download the es.zip from earlier in this thread (http://forum.strataframe.net/FindPost8830.aspx) and you do not have anything in your GAC relating to the ES, then you should be good to go.  There isn't anything left on our side that needs to be done.  We have been testing this version and running it for quite some time now and it is working fine.
