Install and deploying [MYDLL] Unable to deploy solution Inner exception(1): This solution contains one or more assemblies targeted for the global assembly cache. You should use a strong name for any assembly that will be in the global assembly cache.

Answer 1

I have found the problem, but not the solution, it seems the project I have which is really a 12 hive, is also set to output a class library, this class library is getting included in the WSP.

So... I need to ensure the bin folder is really excluded from the build process. I set the value in program files but no reaction yet...

Now going to restart the server...

Later: Ok - the fix is to restart the server, for some reason this helped

Answer 2

I had the same issues but what worked for me was to delete all the files in the bin and obj folder and then rebuild the WSP.

Answer 3

In my case, I was getting some strange errors (can't remember the exact message) when using Delay sign only option for one project.

Answer 4

I'm experiencing the same issue, one solution, multiple projects, the one failing to compile is using an object from another project.

I've tried clearing the bin & obj folder, as well as restarting the server. I think I'll copy the files dll to the gac using gacutil instead.
