Issue with Licensed component

[panayiotis@dotcy.com.cy]

Dear Team,

I have a license of the spire barcode component which I also renewed at the beginning of the year

When I get the latest version of the nugget package for the component I am receiving the below error: "an exception. ---> System.IO.FileLoadException: Could not load file or assembly 'Spire.License, Version=1.3.8.46, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b1144360237c8b3f' or one of its dependencies". But if I revert back to the older version it works fine.

Please advise


Below is the part of the license
<Type>Runtime</Type>
<Username>Panayiotis Panayiotou</Username>
<Email>panayiotis@dotcy.com.cy</Email>
<Organization>DOTCY DMCC</Organization>
<LicensedDate>2021-01-16T00:00:00Z</LicensedDate>
<ExpiredDate>2022-01-16T00:00:00Z</ExpiredDate>

Hello,

Thanks for your inquiry!

Please refer to the following steps to install the Spire.Barcode again.

1) Remove all the references about Spire in the project references.

Thanks for the reply,

Followed all the steps you mentioned (adjusted of' course for package project source) and I am still getting the same error.

I checked in the bin folder as you can see the version of the lib library is not the one your component is checking for (see "Bin Folder Lib Versions" image).

Your main DLL is looking for version 1.3.8.46 (see the error message) whereas your license library DLL version in the folder is 13.8.40.

Hello,

Thanks for your feedback!

First, our Spire.Barcode dlls have some slightly differences for the different target frameworks, such as the following screenshot shows. In your screenshot, I found that you were using the Spire.Barcode.dll for NET4.6 and the Spire.License.dll for NET4.0, this will cause the version conflict.

Here, I also attached a runnable program for your reference, please open the .sln and Restore Nuget Packages, then you can run it on your side.

UseSpireBarcode.zip

What’s more, you can also download the latest Spire.BarCode(Hot Fix) Version:5.1.4, and then refer to the following steps to add the references based on your target framework manually.

Besides, if you were using two or more of our products in one project, this can also cause the conflict error. And using our Spire.Office package can resolve this error.

If you have any other questions, just feel free to contact us.
