After Upgrade, Building my project Breaks my DNN

Just upgraded Prod and Dev environments to DNN 7.4.2

Now when I build or run my Visual Studio project, my local DNN instance breaks. Visiting any page give the following error. This error can only be resolved by redeploying the upgrade package for 7.4.2 over the top of the site.

Obviously something important is being overwritten, but no idea what it might be. Any pointers?

Re: After Upgrade, Building my project Breaks my DNN

OK, I found that there were a bunch of DotNetNuke dlls in my home\DesktopModules\bin folder that were being copied on build into home\bin and replacing the newer ones.

Actually, not sure WHY I have a bin folder under DesktopModules. Is that normal?

Re: After Upgrade, Building my project Breaks my DNN

thanks for sharing this. I had a similar issue. My error was:

CS0103: The name 'HeaderIsWritten' does not exist in the current context

dotnetnuke.dll was getting overwritten with an older version during build.

Re: After Upgrade, Building my project Breaks my DNN

To answer the question if having a bin folder in your DesktopModules folder is normal the answer is no. I however have tried keeping copies of dll's to share in a separate folder and those accidentally over wrote dll's in the main site bin. Is it possible that your module is referencing the dll's from the wrong bin folder? I've had that happen and it can be tricky to figure out what causes it. Glad you figured out your issue though.
