I came accross this error today and it has been taking all my time since morning. I can't push forward without solving the problem. see below:
Error 51 Metadata file 'C:\ProjectBackup\New Folder\GeneralInsuranceManagerBackup- Repaired 27-09-2011\PolicyBusinessLogiclayer\bin\Debug\PolicyBusinessLogiclayer.dll' could not be found
My application is an insurance application. I have three class libraries namely PolicyBusinessLogiclayer, GenericBusinesslogiclayer and ClientBusinessLogiclayer. I also have a Web Project called PolicyManager. The PolicyManager reference all the other three
class libraries and all the class libraries and the webporject Reference a DataAccesslayer class library. Everything works fine until this morning when i got the error. these are the steps i took before now
1. readd the dll using the Project tab of the add reference task.
2. copy previous dll in my backupfolder into the bin\debug folder of the class
all these did not yield result. Google search is not as fast and direct as this forum.
Any knowledge of this error and solutions?
I need your assistance so that i can move forward from here.
Error 51 Metadata file 'C:\ProjectBackup\New Folder\GeneralInsuranceManagerBackup- Repaired 27-09-2011\PolicyBusinessLogiclayer\bin\Debug\PolicyBusinessLogiclayer.dll' could not be found
I think this dll is not present in that folder ..so this erro is occur.
I noticed and that was why i followed the option of copying the .dll from my backup file. Yet the error keeps coming. Is there a way to regenerate the .dll?
Thanks chetan. I think am messing things up here and i need direction. Truely the dll is not present in bin/debug folder. CopyLocal is applicable in the property of reference to dll. The problem here is that the dll file that am suppose to reference keeps
getting deleted.
To better explain myself. I have four projects.
1 DataAccessLayer(containing the DataSets
2. BusinessLogicLayer
3. PolicyBusinessLogiclayer and
4. PolicyManager.(Web Application)
2,3,4 reference 1.
4 reference 2 and 3. The problem now is that BusinessLogiclayer.dll does not exist in Businesslogiclayer\bin\debug. Meaning i cant reference the project.
The Error Message is as show below>
Error 46 Metadata file 'C:\ProjectBackup\New Folder\GeneralInsuranceManagerBackup- Repaired 27-09-2011\BusinessLogicLayer\bin\Debug\BusinessLogicLayer.dll' could not be found PolicyManager

Loos like dll is not present in bin folder, make sure CopyLocal is set to true for the respective dll

This is just a feed back:
The error was due to the fact that the the Build exercise failed on BusinessLogicLayer project.
I corrected the error in the code and the build was successful and i was able to pass this level long ago.
Thanks everyone
