I'm having problems with using an OpenAccess based project in a SiteFinity website. As i don't which forum is the best for this type of 2 product question, i thought i'd add a link to the question on the OpenAccess forum as well:
http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/orm/general-discussions/conflict-with-sitefinity-and-oa.aspx

I'm really in need of some help for this one, because right now it seems like our OA product won't work with SiteFinity, which in the beginning seemed such a nice combination..

Best regards, Tevez

Hi Tevez,

Why don't you compile your project with a reference from the OpenAccess version that is shipped with Sitefinity? This would not cause issues related to the assembly version.

Hi Ivan,
I tried to remove the newer references from my project. And then i added the references again, to the Telerik.OpenAccess.dll and Telerik.OpenAccess.35.Extensions.dll that we're shipped with SiteFinity.
On my development machine where both SiteFinity and the latest version of the OpenAccess ORM are installed, i cannot build my project. Although references have been replaced, when building i get an error that says: that the older version (2011.1.510.1) was found, but the newer version (2011.2.713.3) was expected!
Is this because that is the OA version that is installed on that computer (including the integration with Visual Studio)?

When i move the whole project to a computer that has nothing but Visual Studio installed, copy the .dll's from the SiteFinity project and reference them in my copied project, then my project build just fine..

Is there a way i don't have to move my custom project to a separate machine? I'd really like to work on both projects, on one development machine.

Hello Tevez,

I haven't encounter the issue locally. The reference get set correctly. It might be something that OA requires, so let's see what the OA support team will tell you about this issue.

All the best,
