I ran into this as well.  Initial install went well, the site loaded within the Project Manager.  But then when I loaded it within VS 2010 and built it, 2 of the DLLs in the bin were actually deleted!

The only option that I could figure out was to copy the dlls back to the bin from C:\Program Files (x86)\Telerik\Sitefinity 4.1\_EmptyProject\bin.

The DLLs that VS 2010 wants to get rid of are:

- Facebook.dll
- Newtonsoft.Json.dll

Another TIP:  DON'T "CLEAN" the solution at any time or you will wipe out all of the DLLs that are clearly necessary to run the project.

@Telerik - is there something that can be done around this behaviour?   Any tips surrounding working with the project within VS 2010 and especially around what files to add to Source Control?

Chris.

Thanks that seemed to do the trick!

Why does vs remove those dlls?

Posted by Community Admin on 22-Apr-2011 00:00

That's the big mystery right now.  The DLLs are all very necessary - as we've seen.  So is the Solution file that Sitefinity Creates messed up?  Is there some incompatibility between those DLLs and .NET 4.0?  I don't have the answers to this.

Posted by Community Admin on 27-Apr-2011 00:00

Hi,

When you perform a rebuild the dlls from the bin are cleared and then the project cannot find them to make the proper references. Possible solution would be creating a reference folder that you can use to put the dlls and recover them during the build.

Kind regards,

Hi,

Is this an issue that will be resolved in the future or do I have to add it to the PITS list?

Thanks

I ran into this issue too.  As a quick workaround I just added a reference to Facebook.dll and Newtonsoft.Json from the SitefinityWebApp project.  Now when you rebuild or clean VS doesn't delete the dlls.  I would also like to know why this is happenining.  It seems like VS is trying to clean up dlls that it thinks are needed.  I assume it's trying to find a list of referenced assemblies and remove all unreferenced assemblies. Maybe how Sitefinity does IoC is confusing VS???

Posted by Community Admin on 26-Oct-2011 00:00

I'm getting the same error in Sitefinity 4.2.  Fresh install, everything seemed fine, then opened the project in VS2010 and rebuilt, and receive the same error.  This answer didn't work for me because Facebook.dll and Newtonsoft.Json.dll *are* in my bin folder and referenced in the project.  Is it possible there are other files in 4.2 which may have been deleted during rebuild?

thanks,
Steve

Hey Steve,

This is what I do whenever I run in to a problem where library files have somehow gone "AWOL"...

I create a new project from scratch using the Project Manager wizard and then I go in to my broken project and re-reference the files located in the bin folder of the new project.  Build and the problem should be gone.  Try avoiding to hit "rebuild"!

I find just adding the files to the bin do not work.

Goodluck!

Okay cool, looks like I may have fixed it in Sitefinity 4.2 using the same technique that worked for 4.1.

Comparing the DLL's between the _EmptyProject\Bin and my project\bin showed a that my build was missing Microsoft.Http.dll and Telerik.Sitefinity.MigrationContracts.dll.  So I copied those back into my \bin folder and then added a reference to them in VS2010.  Now whenever it rebuilds the application all the necessary files remain.

Hope this helps!
Steve

Hi Steve, this should probably be an answer. I had other DLLs missing, but the point remains - VS has removed something on build or clean, which cost me few hours of troubleshooting. Thank you.

I get this every time I rebuild, but then I immediately build, and its fine... is there something I can do to stop this?

Easy solution:

Add the following as a pre-build event to your project, this will allow you to use rebuild as necessary or desired and prevent any accidental click problems.

robocopy ..\..\..\_EmptyProject\bin . /E /XC /XN /XO
echo copied missing DLLS
