Could not load type 'DotNetNuke.UI.WebControls.SolPartActions'


After upgrading my DNN Website from 6.1.3 to 8.0.0 I am getting following message on every page

Module Load Warning One or more of the modules on this page did not load. This may be temporary. Please refresh the page (click F5 in most browsers). If the problem persists, please let the Site Administrator know.

After further debugging I found following error in the log.resources file

System.Web.HttpParseException: Could not load type 'DotNetNuke.UI.WebControls.SolPartActions'

Can someone help me in resolving this?


Solution

  • DNN8 Eliminated the SolPartActions type which is typically referenced in your Containers. Go to your Containers folder: /Portals/x/Containers and open each .ascx file.

    Look for and REMOVE two things:

    <%@ Register TagPrefix="dnn" TagName="ACTIONS" Src="~/Admin/Containers/SolPartActions.ascx" %>
    

    and

    <dnn:ACTIONS runat="server" id="dnnACTIONS" />
