Installation of standard edition breaks Model Explorer and Model Designer

Post by avalor » Tue 01 Apr 2014 08:50

I've using trial version and now I've purchased the standard edition. After installing, now I'm not able to open the Model Designer or Model Explorer. I get an error message which tells that information has been written in ActivityLog.xml:

<entry>
<record>246</record>
<time>2014/04/01 08:02:10.331</time>
<type>Error</type>
<source>VisualStudio</source>

</entry>

When I try to compile the project, I get the following error:

Error 4: No se puede cargar el archivo o ensamblado 'Devart.Data.Oracle.Entity, Version=8.3.125.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=09af7300eec23701' ni una de sus dependencias. El sistema no puede encontrar el archivo especificado.

I've searched the GAC and there is no registered 'Devart.Data.Oracle.Entity.dll', so maybe the problem is there. Only Devart.Data, Devart.Data.Design and Devart.Data.Oracle are registered.

I've tried to reinstall without success. What can I do?

Standard edition doesn't include Entity Framework support. Entity Framework support is available in dotConnect for Oracle Professional and Developer editions, please refer to: http://www.devart.com/dotconnect/oracle/editions.html

Therefore, you need to upgrade the Standard edition to Professional/Developer. Please contact our Sales department (sales at devart dot com) with this question.

Exactly!

I've upgraded my license to Professional Edition and now it's working again. My bad!

Thank you
