    [CLOSED] GAC Install

    Hello! I am working on building multiple applications on Ext.Net. Instead of copying DLLs to each application bin, I thought I'd put Ext.Net DLLs into GAC (Global Assembly Cache) and have it globally available for all .net applications.

    So I've installed the DLLs into GAC and get following errors:

    Configuration Error
    
    Description:  An error occurred during the processing of a configuration file required to  service this request. Please review the specific error details below and modify  your configuration file appropriately. 
    
    Parser Error Message:  Could not load file or assembly 'Ext.Net' or one of its dependencies. The  system cannot find the file specified.
    
    Source Error:
    
    Line 54:                 <add assembly="System.Data.Linq, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089"/> 
    Line 55:                 <add assembly="System.Data.DataSetExtensions, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=B77A5C561934E089" />
    Line 56:                 <add assembly="Ext.Net" />
    Line 57:                 <add assembly="*" /> 
    Line 58:             </assemblies>
    Source  File: web.config    Line: 56
    Anyone have any idea what's wrong? I guess it's more of .net issue than Ext.net issue. I may be doing something wrong with web.config files. I am using .net 3.5 with IIS 6.0.

    Since this is a .net issue and not ext.net issue, I thought I'd put it in general help section. Anyways, I solved the issue using exact version number, culture, and public key token:

    <add assembly="Ext.Net, Version=1.0.3960.36328, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=2e12ce3d0176cd87"/>
    Strange it didn't take "Version=1.0.*"

    Hi,

    As far as I can know if we need to get an access to an assembly from GAC we have to define a Strong Name (fully qualified) for this assembly. A Strong Name includes a full version.
