Could not load file or assembly 'System.Web.Mvc, Version=3.0.0.0, Elmah.MVC issue

问题

Locally - my MVC 4, asp.net, c# app runs fine on IIS 8 / Windows 8.

When deployed to Windows Server 2008, I get this error:

Could not load file or assembly 'System.Web.Mvc, Version=3.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)

and

[FileLoadException: Could not load file or assembly 'System.Web.Mvc, Version=3.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)]

This happens if I select 'Only files needed to run this application' from the 'Items to deploy' drop down in project properties/package/publish web.

If I select 'all files in this project' it works fine.

I guess Elmah is reliant on an older version of MVC or something - how can I fix this without having to upload all the files?

Whats the best way to problem solve situations like this?

Thanks.

回答1:

I had this exact same issue using MVC4 with Ninject built for .Net 4.5

To fix this i had to add a binding redirect to my Web.config file: (at the end of the file, just before the </configuration> tag)

  <runtime>
    <assemblyBinding xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1">
      <dependentAssembly>
        <assemblyIdentity name="System.Web.Helpers" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35"/>
        <bindingRedirect oldVersion="1.0.0.0-2.0.0.0" newVersion="2.0.0.0"/>
      </dependentAssembly>
      <dependentAssembly>
        <assemblyIdentity name="System.Web.Mvc" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35"/>
        <bindingRedirect oldVersion="1.0.0.0-4.0.0.0" newVersion="4.0.0.0"/>
      </dependentAssembly>
      <dependentAssembly>
        <assemblyIdentity name="System.Web.WebPages" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35"/>
        <bindingRedirect oldVersion="1.0.0.0-2.0.0.0" newVersion="2.0.0.0"/>
      </dependentAssembly>
  <dependentAssembly>
    <assemblyIdentity name="System.Web.WebPages.Razor" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35"/>
    <bindingRedirect oldVersion="1.0.0.0-2.0.0.0" newVersion="2.0.0.0"/>
  </dependentAssembly>
    </assemblyBinding>
  </runtime>

This forces the web server to use System.Web.Mvc 4.0.0.0 instead of an older version.

回答2:

There are some procedures using to fix the issue and if the binding redirect in web.config does not solve the problem, you can try the following steps to fix it:

1) In Visual Studio Solution Explorer tree right-click References under your web project and select Manage NuGet Packages.

2) Go to Browse tab and select nuget.org as Package source.

3) Search and install the following packages: Ninject, Ninject.Web.Common and Ninject.MVC5.

It is also better to update the packages particularly Microsoft ASP.NET MVC on Updates tab of Manage NuGet Packages.

Hope this helps...

<dependentAssembly>
            ***<assemblyIdentity name="System.Web.Mvc" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" />
            <bindingRedirect oldVersion="0.0.0.0-5.2.7.0"*** newVersion="5.2.7.0" />
        </dependentAssembly>

Check correct versions are there

回答4:

To install System.Web.Mvc 3.0.0.0 version

1) Install windows web platform installer
2) Open Windows web platform installer from start menu
3) Go to Products tab
4) Search for MVC
5) Install MVC 3

回答5:

Are you sure you are using ASP.NET MVC (views controllers etc)? or is your web app using ASP.NET WebAPI exclusively? If so then you should only install the ElMAH NuGet package and not Elmah.MVC.

For ASP.NET WebAPI only apps I would recommend the Emah.Contrib.WebAPI package. This package can also be installed via NuGet.

回答6:

In the error page I had this:

LOG: Redirection detected in the application configuration file: 5.1.0.0 was redirected to 5.2.3.0.

So I had to change this line in the web.config to the 5.1.0.0 version and it worked!

<dependentAssembly>
    <assemblyIdentity name="System.Web.Mvc" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" />
    <bindingRedirect oldVersion="0.0.0.0-5.2.3.0" newVersion="5.1.0.0" />
    <!--<bindingRedirect oldVersion="0.0.0.0-5.2.3.0" newVersion="5.2.3.0" /> Older line -->
  </dependentAssembly>

I think this is due to a version problem when I downloaded the code from TFS

Hope this helps

回答7:

Add below code in web.config:

<runtime>
<assemblyBinding xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1">
  <dependentAssembly>
    <assemblyIdentity name="System.Web.Mvc" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" />
    <bindingRedirect oldVersion="1.0.0.0-3.0.0.0" newVersion="3.0.0.1" />
  </dependentAssembly>
</assemblyBinding>
