Is there a binding redirect in config for EPiServer.dll and is it set to 7.13.3?
I managed to fix it by comparing references with Alloy and adding assemblies that were missing. Also compared assembly redirects in web.config with Alloy, and added those missing.
Also - found out that .dll's in modulesbin will override whatever you've specificed in assembly redirects. In my case I had old versions which prevented the site from starting.
Sorry for bumping old issue, but we are facing currently similar issues with EPiServer.UI.dll and EPiServer.dll after updating EPiServer Commerce packages from nuget from 7.5 to 8.6.1.
Do you remember what exactly solved this issue? I've been trying with your previous trip and trying with various tips from around internet but nothing seems to be working.
Basically in debug mode the build is successful, and by turning project file setting: Generate serialization assembly: Off from release builds, they work also. But using the default Auto setting on release builds (which worked on EPiServer 7.5) this issue occurs. Assemblies and bindings should be correct.
I also wonder does turning Generate serialization assembly: off cause any issues on EPiServer Commerce site?
Any help would be appreciated.
Hi,
I remember the key to my issue was that I had older dll's in the modulesbin folder. Deleting the contents of that folder solved it for me.
Unfortunatly, I don't have any experience with Commerce, but I would give fusion log a shot (enable fusion log).
I cleared the modulesbin as well as you suggested, but that was no help for me. The fusion log looks pretty much the same as yours, of course with different version numbers.
Anyway, thanks for quick answer!
If anyone else has some information related to this issue, please let me know.
I have the same problem, now with Episerver.UI ver 8.1.0.0 looking for Episerver ver 8.2.0.0, while 8.4.0.0 of the latter is installed. I cleaned modulesbin, checked redirects in web.config, compared with clean Alloy setup (which works, annoyingly). Have you managed to fix the problem, Samuli?

Paweł: I couldn't find any fix for this, but I as far as I remember turning project file setting: Generate serialization assembly: Off was the way to go for me.
I have not noticed any problems with that change in the past year.
In a 7.0 -> 7.5 upgrade I'm having some issues.
The project won't compile, the oh-so-famous "Unable to load one or more requested types. Retrieve the LoaderExceptions property for more information" SGEN error is all the info I get from the error list in Visual Studio.
So I enabled Fusion Log. It tells me, if I'm not mistaken, that EPiServer.UI is trying to find EPiserver.dll version 7.13.2:
The latest EPiServer.Cms.Core nuget is version 7.13.3, and I do not have 7.13.2 installed. I do have the latest EPiServer.UI.Core package installed (7.13.0).
If this is the cause of the compile error - does anyone know a workaround?
