Question

So I’ve been working locally on my machine, trying to parse an XML document. Here’s my code:

XDocument xmlInput = XDocument.Load(new StringReader(xml));
var properties = from p in xmlInput.Descendants("Property")
                     select new
                     {
                         PropertyID = Int32.Parse(p.Value)
                     };

This works fine locally. But when I push to the production server, I get this error when I’m setting properties:

CS1002: ; expected

I think it’s having a problem recognizing var, but I’m not completely sure. I think there might be some differences between my machine and the production server, but I don’t know what. Is there maybe a specific namespace I should be looking for on my production server?

Answer 1

The version of .net you are running on the server doesn’t match your local version.

Basically, you need to install the .net 3.5 framework on your server.
