Dear Ajay

a) did you follow the instructions to the dot
b) did you bild your solution
c) did you use build or rebuild   
d) any custom module which is referencing the old 4.2 version

Dear Markus
 
i follow all step but it still giving same error 

Could not load file or assembly 'Telerik.Sitefinity, Version=4.2.1733.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b28c218413bdf563' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)

Hello Ajay,

The error means that your project / solution is referencing to a specific version of the Telerik.Sitefinity assembly - for example if you have a custom module, custom class library or other 3rd party control which was built with the assemblies for Sitefinity 4.2, build 1733. In order to resolve the problem, you need to make sure that all projects within the Sitefinity solution are referencing the correct version of the dll. Another option would be to perform a bindingredirect:

Hi,

I have 6 other project in sitefinity web application .

I can update (sitefinity web application) but how to update 6 other project  Telerik.Sitefinity  dll .

Hello Ajay,

If any of the other projects is referencing the old 4.2 build 1733 dll, you will need to remove the reference using Visual Studio, add new reference to the 4.4 assembly and build the projects within the solution.

dear sir,
i am follow your step there is one more error

Unable to load one or more of the requested types. Retrieve the LoaderExceptions property for more information.

please help

Hi Ajay,

The LoaderExceptions error can be thrown if you have mismatching references for example, when you rebuilt the project - this action removes the dlls from the bin folder and results into the exception you are getting.

Could you please check the following article which contain information which might be helpful to you ( if you have not read it already ): Also you can try cleaning up your solution and build it again.

hi arno ,

Conversion from 4.2 to 4.4 is success. thanks

Now i want to converting it from 4.4 to 5.0



my question is  

using Telerik.OpenAccess;
using Telerik.OpenAccess.Metadata.Fluent;
using Telerik.OpenAccess.Metadata.Fluent.Advanced;

not find inside 

Telerik.OpenAccess.40.Extensions.dll

but find inside Telerik.OpenAccess.35.Extensions.

i want to convvert 4.4 to 5.0 then it need to use Telerik.OpenAccess.40.Extensions.dll.

 error
The type or namespace name 'Fluent' does not exist in the namespace 'Telerik.OpenAccess.Metadata' (are you missing an assembly reference?)

The type or namespace name 'MappingConfiguration' could not be found (Are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

Please tell me how to fixed.

Hi,

In Sitefinity 5.0 we are using the following OpenAccess dlls:
Telerik.OpenAccess
Telerik.OpenAccess.35.Extensions
Telerik.OpenAccess.Config
Telerik.OpenAccess.MySql.Data
Telerik.OpenAccess.Runtime
Telerik.OpenAccess.Web

Note that in Sitefinity 6.0 we are using: Telerik.OpenAccess.35.Extensions as well, not Telerik.OpenAccess.40.Extensions

Please use the Telerik.OpenAccess.35.Extensions dll.
