Question

Warning 1   D:\MyPath\SomeAscx.cs: ASP.NET runtime error: 


            Could not load file or assembly 'HtmlAgilityPack, 
            Version=1.4.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=bd319b19eaf3b43a'
            or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition 
            does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)

I have removed the reference and am not using it in code why would this still be an issue. I have tried cleaning solution, rebuilding, open and closing solution but still no success. Has anyone come across this issue before?

Answer 1

Even if you removed direct references, something else might still require that dll.

I’d suggest:

1. Recycle your IIS application pool (or run IISRESET from the command prompt to reset the entire web server)
2. turn on FusLog and check who is the real “offender”
