如何避免不引用“ Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Common.Instrumentation.IInstrumentationEventProvider”？

Question

In my mvc3 project when it start Debugging it always shows this error message.

The type 'Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Common.Instrumentation.IInstrumentationEventProvider' is defined in an assembly that is not referenced. You must add a reference to assembly 'Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Common, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35'.

I install microsoft.practices.enterpriselibrary.common.dll this file also.But it shows that error again and again.

How can i slove this problem?Any idea?

Answer 1

Did you ensure that you have the right version of the Enterprise library. If you have installed enterprise library of other version, you may get this kind of exception.

Also check in the References of your application to ensure that the reference is in place.

Also, try to clean up the Temporary ASP.Net files and then clean and rebuild the solution and post the update.

Answer 2

I had a similar issue..

I replaced with proper dll files but during compile time, it was throwing error.

Finally, I figured out.. I had to delete all the reference dll files that were part of enterprise library and added them again. After doing this, it worked.
