You extension probably has some dependencies on assemblies or assembly versions that are not found. Try writing a little test program to call Assembly.LoadFrom() on your extension, and see what exception you get.
(I know, it would have been nice if Votive reported those exception details to you...) -Jason- -----Original Message----- From: jnewton [mailto:jonathan.new...@ni.com] Sent: Monday, March 30, 2009 12:24 PM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] Getting Error "A reference to ... could not be added. Make sure its a valid WiX reference" When Using Votive So I built an extension on one machine against build 4917 and took this assembly to another machine with the same build version. When I tried to add a reference to this extension, I got the error shown in the attached picture. Now, I have found that it sometimes doesn't load on my dev machine and gives me that error. I"m not sure what's going on. -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/Getting-Error-%22A-reference-to-...-could-not-be-added.-Make-sure-its-a-valid-WiX-reference%22-When-Using-Votive-tp2559203p2559203.html Sent from the wix-users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ WiX-users mailing list WiX-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wix-users
