NAV 2013R2 - ControlAddin can not load after upgrade

MarcoV

First of all, I think I'm probably missing something simple. But I've been searching for a solutions for a couple of days now.

I've upgraded a NAV2013 RTM database to NAV2013 R2. That all worked fine, but when I tried to compile a page with one of our control add-ins I received the following error:

"Could not load type 'abcdefgh;PublicKeyToken=12345a123bc'.

Strange thing is that one of our other add-ins works fine. I both installed them in the add-ins folder and in the "Client Add-in" folder. Oh and it still works in NAV2013 RTM..

What else did I miss?

I've seen this error is your .net addin is referencing the 2013 Microsoft.Dynamics.Framework.UI.Extensibility.dll instead of the new 2013 R2 Microsoft.Dynamics.Framework.UI.Extensibility.dll.
Try referencing the new dll in your addin project and re-compile.

Hi John,

I'm going to test your solution, I'll let you know if it works.

Thanks,

Also, make sure when you reference Microsoft.Dynamics.Framework.UI.Extensibility.dll set the copy to output directory to false on your reference. It might be that you have an old version of the Microsoft.Dynamics.Framework.UI.Extensibility.dll in your Addin directory.

Let me know.
