I need to update a set of platform level assemblies to use EF6. These assemblies are installed in the GAC. Is it safe to install EntityFramework.dll in the GAC with EF6?

every time i clone Abp.ModuleZero to my machine when i run nuget command update-database the error show me and when i build the solution in viusal studio the project doesn't build and show many errors in error list console window
most of them is like :
The type 'Object' is defined in an assembly that is not referenced.
You must add a reference to assembly 'netstandard, Version=2.0.0.0,
Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=cc7b13ffcd2ddd51'
i try to install Netstandard.library package from package manager console window but doesn't any sense.
my visual studio IDE version is 2015 Update 3.
ABP v3.0.0 is based on .NET Standard 2.0.
This concerns you regardless if you are on MVC 5.x, .NET Framework 4.x or .NET Core 2.x.
You should use VS2017 15.3.3+.
For VS2015, you may try installing NuGet client 3.6 or higher but that may no longer work.
i think downgrade to earlier version of this framework is good solution for me, where can i download early version of ABP framework like 2.3.4?
I don't see why you would download the framework, but it's on GitHub.
If you meant download a template that uses an earlier version of ABP:
You can only choose the project version for premium startup templates.
You can build your own from module-zero-core-template/releases/tag/v2.5.1.
You need to rename the files and folders yourself.
I am currently trying to create a NuGet package from an ASP.NET MVC project (let's call it Library) I created, that should act as a base for other ASP.NET MVC projects.
Almost everything works fine so far, the only problem I ran into is, that NuGet only includes some of the NuGet references of my "Library" project, most notably the ASP.NET MVC NuGet packages seem to be missing.
This is the list of packages in my "Library" project:
And this is the dependencies created for the NuGet package:
Does anyone have an idea why bootstrap, Microsoft.AspNet.Mvc and others are not included?
I just debugged the NuGet.exe and found out why this happens: apparently NuGet does not take ALL dependencies but only a minimal set. This minimal set consists only of top-level packages (=> packages that are not referenced by another package in the project).
So for example the Autofac.Mvc5 package depends on Microsoft.AspNet.Mvc and therefore only Autofac.Mvc5 is used as a dependency.
A TFS 2012 build server with .NET 4.6 installed produces the error message below when trying to build a website targetting .NET 4.6.
The machine has been restarted since the install.
Do I need to somehow tell TFS to favor .NET 4.6?
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\Microsoft.Common.targets
(983): The reference assemblies for framework
".NETFramework,Version=v4.6" were not found. To resolve this, install
the SDK or Targeting Pack for this framework version or retarget your
application to a version of the framework for which you have the SDK
or Targeting Pack installed. Note that assemblies will be resolved
from the Global Assembly Cache (GAC) and will be used in place of
reference assemblies. Therefore your assembly may not be correctly
targeted for the framework you intend.
I installed the .NET Framework 4.6 Targeting Pack on the build server and that resolved it for me.
Firstly, you need to be sure that all referenced assemblies in the project can be found on the TFS build server. For best practice, you need to install VS2015 on the build server machine.
Secondly, you need to customize your TFS build process template to explicitly set the ToolPath variable in the Run MSBuild for Project activity to be C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\14.0\Bin. Or add /tv:14.0 argument to MSBuild command.
We have an ASP.NET MVC 4 solution with a couple of references that has been building without problems for about 2 years now. However, after installing KB2993928 and KB2993937 this morning, we cannot run FxCop on this solution on our Windows 7 machines anymore.
I have a feeling this is because this update changed the DLL version of the System.Web.Mvc assembly in the GAC. This is because in the GAC I can currently find 3 different System.Web.Mvc DLLs, which are all updated today.
The error we receive in the build is as follows:
6>MSBUILD : error : CA0001 : The following error was encountered while reading module 'FrontEnd.Implementation': Assembly reference cannot be resolved: System.Web.Mvc, Version=3.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35. [C:\Project\FrontEnd\02-Implementation\02-Implementation.csproj]
6>MSBUILD : error : CA0058 : The referenced assembly 'System.Web.Mvc, Version=3.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' could not be found. This assembly is required for analysis and was referenced by: S:\Deliverables\FrontEnd\bin\FrontEnd.Implementation.dll. [C:\Project\FrontEnd\02-Implementation\02-Implementation.csproj]
Since we use ASP.NET MVC 4, this version 3.0 DLL is referenced indirectly by one of our references. For instance, RazorGenerator references version 3.0.0.0. Possibly others as well. There is no new version of RazorGenerator from what I can tell.
The System.Web.Mvc versions I see in the GAC are: 3.0.50813.1, 4.0.40804.0 and 5.0.20821.0.
I removed the reference to System.Web.Mvc from our projects and added Mvc as a NuGet package instead. This fixes our compilation, but FxCop still doesn't work due to the indirect references.
If any additional information is required please let me know.
If this issue is caused by references which in turn have dependencies on those specific assemblies, you can remedy this by coercing FxCop to use only the StrongName and ignore the version number. This solution is described here.
Of course the real solution would be to update the referenced assemblies (with the indirect dependencies) to newer versions.
Solution:
Uninstall the MVC Framework via "Programs and Features" (whichever version you're using)
Re-install MVC Framework (http://www.asp.net/mvc/mvc4)
Should fix the problem - no changes to the build/solutions is required.
This was done by a security update on October 15th from Windows Update. You will need to run the updates on your build servers too.
Link to update:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-ie/download/details.aspx?id=44533
This update fixes other versions as well.
You will likely have to update your projects to the newer version, as it changes the version number and removes the older version completely.
Remove any references to System.Web.MVC and then re-add them by manually browsing to the dll (C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\assembly\GAC_MSIL\System.Web.Mvc\v4.0_5.1.0.0__31bf3856ad364e35\System.Web.MVC.dll on our machine). A lot faster than re-installing MVC if this has just taken your production server down!
The security updates update the assembly version of system.web.mvc.dll. You need to update your csproject to correct the version. Check this post:
ASP.NET MVC security patch to version 3.0.0.1 breaks build
I used the following solution and it's work perfectly:

(don't forget to select the default project on the Package Manager Console for each project with the build failed)
When I install ASP.NET MVC, am I installing a different run-time, compiler, etc? Or, is it just GACing some managed assemblies for the framework?
It is installing System.Web.Abstractions.dll, System.Web.Routing.dll and System.Web.Mvc.dll assemblies into the GAC and depending on the type of install it could also install a VS project template.
MVC uses the same runtime and same compiler. It will add new project templates, page and controller templates to Visual Studio template folders. Also assemblies are added to the GAC.
