Force an ASP.NET 3.5 WebSite to use version 1.0.61025.0 of System.Web.Extensions
- by Greg
I just upgraded my Web Site project from 2.0 to 3.5 to take advantage of the TimeZoneInfo class. When I did this, I started getting an ambiguous assembly error (*see below). The problem is, I'm not using ScriptManager, an old version of SyncFusion is. I can't upgrade SyncFusion right now, so I need to tell ASP.NET to use version 1.0.61025.0 of the assembly.
I ripped out all of the 3.5 script stuff from the web.config and adding bindingRedirects to it, but it didn't work.
<runtime>
<assemblyBinding xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1">
<dependentAssembly>
<assemblyIdentity name="System.Web.Extensions" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" />
<bindingRedirect oldVersion="3.5.0.0" newVersion="1.0.61025.0" />
</dependentAssembly>
<dependentAssembly>
<assemblyIdentity name="System.Web.Extensions.Design" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" />
<bindingRedirect oldVersion="3.5.0.0" newVersion="1.0.61025.0" />
</dependentAssembly>
</assemblyBinding>
</runtime>
The type 'System.Web.UI.ScriptManager'
is ambiguous: it could come from
assembly
'C:\inetpub\wwwroot\xxx\bin\System.Web.Extensions.DLL'
or from assembly
'C:\WINDOWS\assembly\GAC_MSIL\System.Web.Extensions\3.5.0.0__31bf3856ad364e35\System.Web.Extensions.dll'.
Please specify the assembly explicitly
in the type name.
