This assembly has been built with an evaluation version of SmartAssembly, which has expired.

Hello,

I installed a trial version for a plugin, I'm yet to purchase the full version. At the moment anytime i load my site this is the message i get " This assembly has been built with an evaluation version of SmartAssembly, which has expired."

I have already removed the plugin from the solution and republished in Visual Studio but it keeps coming back with the same error.

Need help ASAP.

Regards,
Immanuel

Add a blank line to the end of your global.asax file.  That will cause ASP.NET to force recompile (and should clear any temp files).

Hello New York,

Thanks for the response. I have tried it and i'm still getting the same error. Any alternative?

Now a new error comes up "Could not load file or assembly 'Autofac, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=17863af14b0044da' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)"

I've update the NuGet package to 4.2.1 of the Autofac, so I don't know why it's still reading the earlier 3.5.0 version
