Solution

  • Errors like this are usually seen after upgrading or some mismatch in dependencies in your solution. As 'Climber' mentioned, get the zip for a clean version of Sitecore, exactly matching the version you are using (not just "8.1" but also the correct minor update-x version). Verify that your Sitecore.Kernel.dll is the same as the one in the clean version. And verify the other dll's as well (so actually verify the entire bin folder - it should be the same exactly apart from the dll's that came from your own code).

    If you have dependencies to Sitecore dll's in your solution (Nuget or otherwise), also verify that they refer to the correct version or you might have the same problem again after a deploy.
