Hey

I just downloaded LinqConnect Professional verions 4.4.735
After the Installation and openening my Project, I get the following error:

Error 1 Custom tool error: The Object of type "EntityDeveloper.EntityFramework.EntityFrameworkModelDescriptor" can not be wrapped into type of "EntityDeveloper.ModelDescriptor"

The error is a Translation from german. In original:

Fehler 1 Custom tool error: Das Objekt des Typs "EntityDeveloper.EntityFramework.EntityFrameworkModelDescriptor" kann nicht in Typ "EntityDeveloper.ModelDescriptor" umgewandelt werden. 1 1


Please give me advise - THX

Please specify whether you have any other Devart product installed on the computer, e.g., Entity Developer Professional. Make sure that the compatible versions are installed (the releases from the same date).

Devart data providers use a common assembly (Devart.Data.dll), so it is necessary to install compatible providers versions. Entity Developer product and Devart data providers use common assemblies, too (EntityDeveloper.Orm.Common.dll, etc). We release our ADO.NET data providers together, thus releases from the same date are compatible:

http://www.devart.com/entitydeveloper/r ... story.html
http://www.devart.com/dotconnect/oracle ... story.html

If it is the case, please download and install compatible versions. Please perform the following steps while uninstalling/installing:
1) uninstall LinqConnect and Entity Developer, and other Devart products, which can use common assemblies (e.g., dotConnect for Oracle);
3) clear these folders:
- Program Files (x86)\Devart\dotConnect and Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Devart\dotConnect
- Program Files (x86)\Devart\Entity Developer and Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Devart\Entity Developer
- Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\Common7\IDE\PrivateAssemblies\Devart (this directory depends on the version of Visual Studio being used);
4) remove all Devart.* and policy.*.Devart.* files from the GAC:
- C:\Windows\assembly\GAC_MSIL\;
- C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\assembly\GAC_MSIL
5) install LinqConnect 4.4.735 and Entity Developer 5.7.594, etc.
Make sure, that during uninstalling/installing all Visual Studio instances are closed.

Please notify us about the results.

Perfect!

That was the Problem - Entity Developer installed as well...
