DevExpress reference to wrong asembly

created 7 years ago

we have been using devexpress in sharepoint 2013 we first used dev express Version 17.1.3.0 and then we updated to 17.1.4.0 everything was working fine but now every time we make a new web service aplication the web.config of all our websites in the farm gets is reference change from

This

<add name="ASPxHttpHandlerModule" type="DevExpress.Web.ASPxHttpHandlerModule, DevExpress.Web.v17.1, Version=17.1.4.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b88d1754d700e49a" />

To this

<add name="ASPxHttpHandlerModule" type="DevExpress.Web.ASPxHttpHandlerModule, DevExpress.Web.v17.1, Version=17.1.3.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b88d1754d700e49a" />

I have searched all the machine.config , the web.config even the main applicationHost and i cant find where is the problem coming from i even uninstalled dev express and re installed it, if we manually go to every web.config and change the reference everything works.

I would love some help with this thxs all.

Hi,

You may have some old assemblies cached which can cause such an effect. Try performing the steps from the How to resolve issues after updating DevExpress controls: Type 'X' exists in both assemblies vs Type 'X' is ambiguous in namespace 'Y' article to clear these assemblies.

Also, check if there are some prebuild/postbuild or other project event handlers - if so, make sure that actions there do not involve converting the project to an older version.

Best regards,
Paul

      And what about the project events? Have you checked them?

      Are you able to reproduce the issue in a new project? We need to find out whether the issue is specific to the project or your environment.

        The issue is not on a proyect is on all sites in the farm, every time we create a new site this issue comes back we can manually change the webconfigs to solve this issue but is not a long term solution.

          Hi,

          We're not familiar with such issues. Is it possible that you use some VCS for your projects and the old web.config with older versions is restored from there?
