Assembly version mismatch with system.web.mvc, syncFusion - assemblies

I am trying to execute a sample provided by Syncfusion and I get an assembly error.
(0): error CS1705: Assembly 'Syncfusion.Schedule.Mvc, Version=10.104.0.44, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=3d67ed1f87d44c89' uses 'System.Web.Mvc, Version=3.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' which has a higher version than referenced assembly 'System.Web.Mvc, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35'
I thought I just had to remove the failing reference and add my higher version, number 4. Unfortunatly, on the build, the project keeps on trying to build with the version 2.
I should at least have this:
<add assembly="System.Web.Mvc, Version=3.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35" />
But on the build I get this:
<add assembly="System.Web.Mvc, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, ublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35" />

Make sure that the project you are building is an ASP.NET MVC 3 project and not an ASP.NET MVC 2 project. Given this error, it looks like you are using SyncFusion components that are designed for MVC 3 only.

Please check the below,
If you are using Syncfusion samples, then we would suggest you to check the Configuration Manager. If you are using MVC-2 then please set Configuration Manager as debug and if you are using MVC-3 then please set Configuration Manager as debug-MVC3.
Note: Configuration Manager will be available in Build Menu
If you have created your own sample we would suggest you to check the dll reference in the project and run the MVC switcher and assembly manager. Please refer the below link.

Could not load assembly System.Runtime in Xamarin.Forms UWP Project with .NET Standard library

I'm in the process of setting up a Xamarin.Forms app using .NET Standard for the shared library instead of a PCL. I've followed the instructions for doing so laid out here: https://channel9.msdn.com/Shows/XamarinShow/Snack-Pack-15-Upgrading-to-XamarinForms-to-NET-Standard
This is with a brand new Xamarin.Forms app, created using Visual Studio 2017 with a PCL, which was replaced with a .NET Standard library as described in the video.
The UWP app compiles fine, but throws this exception when I try to start it (on the call to Xamarin.Forms.Forms.Init)
System.IO.FileLoadException: 'Could not load file or assembly 'System.Runtime, Version=4.1.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a'. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)'
I've tried specifically adding the nuget package for System.Runtime, version 4.1.0 to the UWP project, but that doesn't seem to help. It runs fine in Android, but keeps giving me this exception running the UWP project. Can anyone tell me what might be causing this and how I can fix it?
edit:
there is a very similar error in the build log:
Could not resolve this reference. Could not locate the assembly "System.Runtime, Version=4.1.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a". Check to make sure the assembly exists on disk. If this reference is required by your code, you may get compilation errors.
Followed by an extremely long list of places it has checked.
I also found this, which seems like it may be the problem:
2> There was a conflict between "System.Runtime, Version=4.0.20.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a" and "System.Runtime, Version=4.1.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a".
2> "System.Runtime, Version=4.0.20.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a" was chosen because it was primary and "System.Runtime, Version=4.1.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a" was not.
Does anyone know how I can resolve this conflict?
edit 2:
There's also this in the build logs right after the above, which is even more perplexing, as it seems to indicate the only thing referencing version 4.0.20.0 of System.Runtime is... version 4.3.0 of System.Runtime???
2> References which depend on "System.Runtime, Version=4.0.20.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a" [C:\Users\Katie.nuget\packages\system.runtime\4.3.0\ref\netcore50\System.Runtime.dll].

Error. Assembly 'Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.EntityFramework is higher version than referenced assembly 'EntityFramework

I have Visual Studio 2012 professional, nd i use to build web applications using these technologies:-
asp.net mvc4.
Entity framework version 5.
now i have installed an update to my visual studio to support asp.net mvc5, then i download this template http://www.campusmvp.net/blog/extended-template-for-asp-net-mvc-5-from-visual-studio-2012.
I have created a new asp.net mvc5 project based on the templete, but when i run the application i got this error:-
Assembly 'Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.EntityFramework, Version=1.0.0.0,
Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' uses
'EntityFramework, Version=6.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' which has a higher version than
referenced assembly 'EntityFramework, Version=5.0.0.0,
Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' c:\Users....\Documents\Visual Studio
2012\Projects\WebApplication3\packages\Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.EntityFramework.1.0.0\lib\net45\Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.EntityFramework.dll WebApplication3
now inside my application web.config file i have the following:-
configuration>
<configSections>
<section name="entityFramework" type="System.Data.Entity.Internal.ConfigFile.EntityFrameworkSection, EntityFramework, Version=5.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089" requirePermission="false" />
</configSections>
which means i am using EF 5 so why it is trying to reference EF6 ?
The problem is that ASP.NET Identity is using Entity Framework 6 (because you're using the EF implementation of it). The easiest solution would be to update EF to version 6. Another way (but I wouldn't call it nice) is to add an assembly redirect. Keep in mind that this way can introduce other problems.
If you don't use ASP.NET Identity at all (which is in the template by default), you could also remove all references and the code in the template, which references Identity..

Razor Host Factory error

I get a MvcWebRazorHostFactory error trying to run my app, but it's not an MVC app at all. I have the following web packages installed via nuget:
Microsoft ASP.NET Razor
Microsoft ASP.NET Web API 2.1
Microsoft ASP.NET Web Pages
My app is angularjs front end using razor views (.cshtml). I don't understand why I keep getting this error.
An exception of type 'System.InvalidOperationException' occurred in System.Web.WebPages.Razor.dll but was not handled in user code
Additional information: Could not locate Razor Host Factory type: System.Web.Mvc.MvcWebRazorHostFactory, System.Web.Mvc, Version=5.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35
And here is the razor section in my web.config:
<system.web.webPages.razor>
<host factoryType="System.Web.WebPages.Razor.WebRazorHostFactory, System.Web.WebPages.Razor, Version=3.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35" />
<pages pageBaseType="System.Web.WebPages.WebPage">
<namespaces>
<add namespace="System.Web.Configuration" />
<add namespace="System.Web.Optimization" />
<add namespace="System.Web.Routing" />
</namespaces>
</pages>
I resolved this issue by setting System.Web.Mvc.MvcWebRazorHostFactory, System.Web.Mvc Version to 5.2.0.0 and it worked, finally! Why 5.2.0.0? Same version as NuGet Microsoft ASP.NET project.
So, the line in /Views/Web.Config should be:
<host factoryType="System.Web.Mvc.MvcWebRazorHostFactory, System.Web.Mvc, Version=5.2.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35" />
For the benefit of anyone developing ASP.NET MVC 5 web apps using Xamarin Studio v5.5.3 on OSX, deleting the /Views/Web.config did not work for me and created other errors.
To fix it, open /Views/Web.config and change all instances of 5.2.0.0 to 5.2.2.0
More details here
Several of the answers point in the right direction, but I was not sure where in the Microsoft Visual Studio for Mac interface I could find the appropriate version number to use for the version part of the factoryType attribute.
For the benefit of other VS for Mac users, the answer is to simply right-click on the Microsoft.AspNet.Mvc package in the Packages list in the solution explorer.
In my case, the package version was "5.2.6" after a package update, so I set the version part of the factoryType attribute to Version=5.2.6.0. This solved the problem.
Changed the version of MvcWebRazorHostFactory to the same version of System.Web.Mvc which resolved my issue.
So apparently some package I got from nuget adds a web.config to the Views folder. In this web.config there were settings for the MvcWebRazorHostFactory. I think this occurred when I added a View to my project using the dialog box.
The solution is to remove the web.config from the Views folder.
I started getting this error in my Razor .cshtml pages in an MVC project following some NuGet package management / upgrading.
I didn't want to remove the Web.config file completely from the Views folder because I had customised it width some <add namespace="..." /> elements. But I noticed that the Version=... in the <host factoryType="..." /> didn't match my version of System.Web.Mvc (checked version in Object Browser).
Altering this version number to match that of my System.Web.Mvc assembly, and restarting Visual Studio, fixed the problem for me (as suggested by Daniel)
This happened to me today. I just made sure the version number for the web.config in the views folder matches the version number for the web.config of the solution.
Hope this helps.
For MacBook users having the Visual Studio 2019, you simply go to the Web.config file and update version of the System.Web.Mvc to that which is in your Nuget packages folder.
Inside your Web project, open "References" tree node.
Look for "Assemblies" folder and open it.
Look for System.Web.Mvc, right click on it, and select "Properties"
A dialog will prompt, read carefully the package full name field and look for the version number. For example, I have this one:
System.Web.Mvc, Version=5.2.7.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35
So, in the Web.config (inside Views folder) replace the version number!
In my case, it originally was:
<host factoryType="System.Web.Mvc.MvcWebRazorHostFactory, System.Web.Mvc, Version=5.2.2.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35" />
Now I have (look at the Version value):
<host factoryType="System.Web.Mvc.MvcWebRazorHostFactory, System.Web.Mvc, Version=5.2.7.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35" />
Hope it helps!

Unable to find reference to assembly in a Visual Studio website

I have a legacy WebSite project (as opposed to a Web Application project). It was using .net 3.5 but I am updating it to 4.0.
Due to the compilation error ...
Compiler Error Message: CS1705: Assembly 'System.Web.Mvc, Version=4.0.0.0,
Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' uses 'System.Web.WebPages,
Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' which has
a higher version than referenced assembly 'System.Web.WebPages,
Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35'
... I added a reference to the newer version of System.Web.WebPages. This added the following line to the web.config file:
<add assembly="System.Web.WebPages, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35"/>
However, when I try to build the website I get this error:
The type 'System.Web.WebPages.WebPage' exists in both
c:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\assembly\GAC_MSIL\System.Web.WebPages\v4.0_2.0.0.0__31bf3856ad364e35\System.Web.WebPages.dll'
and 'c:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\assembly\GAC_MSIL\System.Web.WebPages\v4.0_1.0.0.0__31bf3856ad364e35\System.Web.WebPages.dll'
I cannot seem to find a reference anywhere in the project to the v4.0 1 version of WebPages. I assume this means that some other assembly is probably referring to it but I'm not sure where to go from here.
Any idea how to track down what is referring to the assembly and either remove the reference or update the calling the assembly?

MVC 3 project rejects requests for Razor views with CS0103: The name 'model' does not exist

I have and MVC3 project that once upon a time was an MVC2 project. I've been developing it using IIS express to test.
Now I deployed it to IIS proper on my machine, jiggled some web.config settings, and messed around for an hour getting the razor build provider to be registered, which must not be done right because the new project template doesn't include a line adding that build provider in the web.config.
At any rate, any time I go to a strongly-typed Razor view I get this:
Compiler Error Message: CS0103: The name 'model' does not exist in the current context
Source Error:
Line 1: #model Cairn.Cartography.Features.Peak
Any thoughts on what is going on, and how I might fix it without firebombing this box and looking around for my windows install cd? :)
I was missing:
<host factoryType="System.Web.Mvc.MvcWebRazorHostFactory, System.Web.Mvc, Version=3.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35" />
in this part of my web.config file:
<system.web.webPages.razor>
<host factoryType="System.Web.Mvc.MvcWebRazorHostFactory, System.Web.Mvc, Version=3.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35" />
<pages pageBaseType="System.Web.Mvc.WebViewPage">
<namespaces>
<add namespace="Cairn"/>
<add namespace="Cairn.UI.Web"/>
<add namespace="Cairn.UI.Web.Helpers"/>
</namespaces>
</pages>
</system.web.webPages.razor>
I haven't the foggiest what this means or why it matters, or why it is absent from the web.config generated for a brand new project, but it works.
? Oh well
yes.. reinstall asp.net MVC3 again
either get the MSI file from here: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=208140
or use Web Platform Installer from here: http://www.microsoft.com/web/gallery/install.aspx?appid=MVC3
