Hello,

I've started recceiving this error during initialization when trying to load my site from my local machine. It was launching fine, and then this started happening. I'm don't know what I did to cause this. It is not happening with the same project on other machines. I tried upgrading to the latest Feather, 1.4.430, which also upgrades Telerik.Sitefinity.Mvc, but I get the same error. 1.4.430 is the version of Telerik.Sitefinity.Mvc referenced in my project. Here is the full text of the error:

Could not load file or assembly 'Telerik.Sitefinity.Mvc, Version=1.3.300.1, 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) 

Thank you

Update:

I got around this by adding the following assembly binding tag to the existing list of assembly bindings in the web.config:

      <dependentAssembly>
        <assemblyIdentity name="Telerik.Sitefinity.Mvc" publicKeyToken="b28c218413bdf563"/>
        <bindingRedirect oldVersion="0.0.0.0-1.4.430.0" newVersion="1.4.430.0"/>
      </dependentAssembly>
