Could not load file or assembly or one of its dependencies. An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format wcf on iis.

Cat de cunoscuta vi se pare eroarea aceasta? Prima parte din eroare mi s-a parut foarte cunoscuta in prima faza dar totusi e usor enigmatica.
Problema cea mai mare la acest tip de eroare este ca nu ne spune exact care este cauza. Mai jos o sa gasit trei cazuri comune cand aceasta eroare apare
  • Assembly-ul nu poate fi gasit in locatia data. In funcție de setarile proiectului unu sau mai multe assembly-uri nu se gasesc in locațiile specificate.
  • Unu din assembly-uri este compilat pentru o alta arhitectura de procesor. De exemplu incercam sa rulam 3 proiecte care se refera intre ele. Unul din ele este compilat pentru x86, iar restul proiectelor sunt compilate pe o arhitectura de tip x64.
  • Sunt compilate pe versiuni diferite de .NET. Un assembly este compilat pentru .NET 2.0, iar altul pentru .NET 4.0.
Desii toate cazurile au soluții simple, din cauza ca rulam aplicatia din IIS, o parte din erori sunt vagi si apar doar la runtime.
De exemplu daca avem un assembly care contine un serviciu WCF ce refera un assembly compilat pentru o alta arhitectura de procesor nu o sa avem nici o eroare la compilare. Totul o sa fie bine pana cand o sa apelam un operation contract din serviciu. In momentul respectiv o sa ne trezim cu aceasta eroare si nu o sa stim de unde sa o luam.
Voi in ce alte cazuri ati mai avut aceasta eroare?

Windows Docker Containers can make WIN32 API calls, use COM and ASP.NET WebForms

After the last post , I received two interesting questions related to Docker and Windows. People were interested if we do Win32 API calls from a Docker container and if there is support for COM. WIN32 Support To test calls to WIN32 API, let’s try to populate SYSTEM_INFO class. [StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)] public struct SYSTEM_INFO { public uint dwOemId; public uint dwPageSize; public uint lpMinimumApplicationAddress; public uint lpMaximumApplicationAddress; public uint dwActiveProcessorMask; public uint dwNumberOfProcessors; public uint dwProcessorType; public uint dwAllocationGranularity; public uint dwProcessorLevel; public uint dwProcessorRevision; } ... [DllImport("kernel32")] static extern void GetSystemInfo(ref SYSTEM_INFO pSI); ... SYSTEM_INFO pSI = new SYSTEM_INFO(

Azure AD and AWS Cognito side-by-side

In the last few weeks, I was involved in multiple opportunities on Microsoft Azure and Amazon, where we had to analyse AWS Cognito, Azure AD and other solutions that are available on the market. I decided to consolidate in one post all features and differences that I identified for both of them that we should need to take into account. Take into account that Azure AD is an identity and access management services well integrated with Microsoft stack. In comparison, AWS Cognito is just a user sign-up, sign-in and access control and nothing more. The focus is not on the main features, is more on small things that can make a difference when you want to decide where we want to store and manage our users.  This information might be useful in the future when we need to decide where we want to keep and manage our users.  Feature Azure AD (B2C, B2C) AWS Cognito Access token lifetime Default 1h – the value is configurable 1h – cannot be modified

ADO.NET provider with invariant name 'System.Data.SqlClient' could not be loaded

Today blog post will be started with the following error when running DB tests on the CI machine: threw exception: System.InvalidOperationException: The Entity Framework provider type 'System.Data.Entity.SqlServer.SqlProviderServices, EntityFramework.SqlServer' registered in the application config file for the ADO.NET provider with invariant name 'System.Data.SqlClient' could not be loaded. Make sure that the assembly-qualified name is used and that the assembly is available to the running application. See http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=260882 for more information. at System.Data.Entity.Infrastructure.DependencyResolution.ProviderServicesFactory.GetInstance(String providerTypeName, String providerInvariantName) This error happened only on the Continuous Integration machine. On the devs machines, everything has fine. The classic problem – on my machine it’s working. The CI has the following configuration: TeamCity .NET 4.51 EF 6.0.2 VS2013 It see
