Could not load file or assembly System.Net.Http version 4.1.1.0

问题

I'm porting a Net Framework 4 dll to Net Core. When porting my unit tests project I get an exception running some specific tests (not all).

System.IO.FileLoadException: Could not load file or assembly 'System.Net.Http, Version=4.1.1.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)

This is the project.json for my dll

 {
  "version": "1.0.0-*",

  "dependencies": {
    "log4net": "2.0.7",
    "NETStandard.Library": "1.6.1",
    "Newtonsoft.Json": "9.0.1",
    "StackExchange.Redis": "1.2.1"
  },

  "frameworks": {
    "netstandard1.6": {
      "imports": "dnxcore50"
    }
  }
}

And this is Packages.config for the unit tests project

<packages>
  <package id="Castle.Core" version="4.0.0" targetFramework="net462" />
  <package id="log4net" version="2.0.7" targetFramework="net462" />

回答1:

Fixed it by updating System.Net.Http to 4.3.1

回答2:

I got the issue, and realized that it was because I had two different references. one reference was from my project library, and the second one was a dependency of a .Net Standard library, and therefore a Nuget package. The steps to solve were the following:

Remove the reference to System.Net.Http (project => add reference => remove the reference).
Keep the System.Net and System.Net.Http Nuget packages
Run Update-Package –reinstall System.Net.Http to bring back the reference.

Now it works again. :)

回答3:

My problem was that my service had a referenced assembly that had a reference to a newer version of System.Net.Http. I've resolved the issue by updating System.Net.Http in the service.

回答4:

And now the junior programmer solution.... double check that you are making the updates suggested by Jawen and Jean in Nuget Package Manager in the correct places too. Remember that you might have a solution with your project and a test project, and so double check to update both sets of References.

回答5:

Go to the app.config and remove all the lines there that reference System.Net.Http.

回答6:

I had this problem, while I had 10 projects depending on each other. I fixed that by adding the version that it asked for in one of the projects that was dependent on. It was not needed for compilation, but it seems that adding it, fixed the version in other projects while restoring. So it was:

Could not load file or assembly 'System.Net.Http, Version=4.1.1.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

Then:

Could not load file or assembly 'System.Net.Http, Version=4.1.1.1, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

So I added "System.Net.Http": "4.1.1", in one project..

That actually fixed the problem while it restored 8 projects.

I am agree with Jean. Remove reference to assembly and then add new reference via Nuget! The actual System.Net.Http version doesn't matter. After removing reference to assembly, all works fine, version 4.3.2
