    U7 - MVC4 - VS2010 - Could not load type 'Umbraco.Web.UmbracoApplication'.

    Hello,

    I am new to Umbraco. However I have done the following:

    1. Created a new empty MVC 4 project up in VS 2010

    2. Installed Umbraco CMS from Nuget which has pulled down the latest version (7.0.0 currently)

    3. I have been asked to overwrite the web.config by the Nuget installation, which I accepted

    4. I then cleaned, and built the solution once the Nuget packages had been installed

    5. I hit F5

    I get the error:

    Parser Error

    Description: An error occurred during the parsing of a resource required to service this request. Please review the following specific parse error details and modify your source file appropriately.

    Parser Error Message: Could not load type 'Umbraco.Web.UmbracoApplication'.

    Source Error:

    Line 1:  <%@ Application Codebehind="Global.asax.cs" Inherits="Umbraco.Web.UmbracoApplication" Language="C#" %>
    


    Source File: /global.asax    Line: 1

     

     

    I have tried to Google this but most of the solutions are for version 4 or 6 and none work for me. e.g. creating a global.cs class, changing the inherits line etc.

     

    What have I missed? Or is this just a bug in the installer? Ta!

    First: Umbraco 7 requires you to use .net 4.5 which is not supported in Visual Studio 2010.

    Second: I see this error in v6 sporadically, but only in VS2013, closing the solution and then starting it again seems to help. You should not create a global.cs and your inherits is fine.

    I see, well maybe it would be helpful then if this document was actually updated with version 7 requirements, instead of me having to guess?

    You're absolutely right. Have done now, thanks for pointing that out!

    So what versions support vs2010?

    The video on umbraco.tv specifies that it runs on 2010, 2012 & 2013.

    Is it only the 6 builds?

    If it stops somewhere in 6, which build?

    Sebastiaan, thanks for that link. I guess if you are using 2010 or require medium trust and or your host doesn't have better than .net 4.0 you need to use 6.X.X.X

    • IIS6+ (IIS 7 Preferred)
    • SQL CE, SQL Server 2008 (Express and higher) or MySQL
    • ASP.NET 4 Medium-Trust/Full-Trust (Should work in Medium-Trust environments, but Full-Trust is still preferred)
    • Ability to set file permissions to include create/read/write (or better) for the user that "owns" the Application Pool for your site (NETWORK SERVICE, typically)
