Devart Forums

I don't know why this problem keeps creeping back up. Not sure why it worked once and then the next build it stopped again. Can you tell me what causes this error that I might have a better understanding of it and how to prevent it?

ASP.NET MVC 2 .NET 4.0
No issues with the developer tools/license info.
Devart.Data.Oracle version 5.60.124.0
docconnect installed on dev machine, not on build server nor on web server. Was working then for some reason it has stopped and I get the error below.
Precompiling with aspnet_merge.
Devart*.dll set to copy local.
All forum refrences end with responding directly via email.


Server Error in '/ttweb_stage' Application.

dotConnect for Oracle uses .NET component licensing. License information is a specially formed embedded resource. In your case, it is necessary to add manually the licenses.licx file to your ASP.NET MVC Web Application project as it is described at http://www.devart.com/dotconnect/oracle ... tml#manual, and build your application on the machine where dotConnect for Oracle is installed.

If you do not want to install dotConnect for Oracle on your build server, it is possible to build the license resource separately on your development machine where dotConnect for Oracle is installed (http://www.devart.com/dotconnect/oracle ... ml#compile), and then add the generated file to your project on your build server as an embedded resource.

we've had to install on all our build agents.

absolutely the worst licencing solution i've ever come across, you really need to get a new solution as it has left a terrible stain on otherwise great tools.

We are sorry to find out that our licensing procedure is not convenient to you, but we use the standard .NET component licensing.

If possible, please send us a test project with which the problem can be reproduced so that we are able to investigate it in details.

Could my problem be license related? Is 0x80004005 common?

The license issue cannot be the reason of the exception from the topic http://www.devart.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=23956

Perform a clean on the solution worked for us. We had one solution that was working and one that was not. We uninstalled/reinstalled, but nothing worked. Finally we performed a clean/rebuild all and it worked. Good Luck!

We have the same problem on running the DB Unit tests on Team Build where is no Devart installed, all configurations are correct, devart.*.dll's are deployed.

We generate an qtagent32.exe.license for the process that hosts the test execution and attached to the Test Projects as embedded resource.

The .licx file is not included to the projects.

any experiences with such an scenarios ?
