Hi,

I created a guidance package with 4 class libraries and a web application. I was able to add project references for the class libraries [i;e when i open a test solution of my guidance package, i was able to see all the class libraries having the required project dlls ]

However In my web application, i have added some references into bin, created a template and added it in my Guidance package.It was registered successful but when i open a test solution i was getting that the dll was not able to load you want to continue loading application??

Cananyone please help me out in this??

Regards,

Syamala.

Are you dealing with a Web Application project or a Web Site one?

Can you post how your web application .vstemplate and .csproj looks like?

Below is my web application .vstemplate

<VSTemplate Version="2.0.0" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/vstemplate/2005" Type="Project">

<TemplateData>

<Name>SOManagerUICode</Name>

<Description>&lt;No description available&gt;</Description>

<ProjectType>Web</ProjectType>

<ProjectSubType>CSharp</ProjectSubType>

<SortOrder>1000</SortOrder>

<CreateNewFolder>true</CreateNewFolder>

<ProvideDefaultName>true</ProvideDefaultName>

<LocationField>Enabled</LocationField>

<EnableLocationBrowseButton>true</EnableLocationBrowseButton>

<Icon>__TemplateIcon.ico</Icon>

</TemplateData>

<TemplateContent>

<ProjectItem ReplaceParameters="true" TargetFileName="Web.config">Web.config</ProjectItem>

</Project>

</TemplateContent>

<WizardExtension>

<FullClassName>Microsoft.Practices.RecipeFramework.VisualStudio.Templates.UnfoldTemplate</FullClassName>

</WizardExtension>

<WizardData>

<Template xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/pag/gax-template" SchemaVersion="1.0">

<References>

<RecipeReference Name="AddMethodsInExistingClass" Target="/" />

</References>

</Template>

</WizardData>

</VSTemplate>

And i dont have .csproj here, i'm having ProjectName.webproj which contains nothing.

Thanks

Hi Syamala,

By looking at your vstemplate you can notice that the 'bin' folder is empty:

<Folder Name="bin" TargetFolderName="bin" />

if you want to copy files into bin at the time your project is unfolded you will need to add them to your .vstemplate and make them available (they should be copied to your package output folder) so they can be copied by VS when unfolding the project.

HTH,
