Strong name validation failed

Hi,

I have Windows 2000 Server with all updates, installed VisualStudio.NE T 2003
Enterprise Developer Edition.

It installed OK but if I try to add New Item with Data Form Wizard for a
windows application project I get the following error:

"Strong name validation failed for assembly
'Microsoft.Visu alStudio.DataFo rmWizard'."

Furthermore, I used Sn command to verify the assembly for strong name
signature self consistency.
using:

Sn -vf Microsoft.Visua lStudio.DataFor mWizard.dll

it gave me following message:
Failed to verify assembly -- Unable to format error message 8013141A

then i tried to register the assembly for verification skipping to
workaround the problem with command:
Sn -Vr Microsoft.Visua lStudio.DataFor mWizard.dll

And got the following message:
Verification entry added for assembly
'Microsoft.Visu alStudio.DataFo rmWizard,B03F5F 7F11D50A3A'

But the problem still persist. and verifying the assembly for SN gives me
same error.

Can anyone help me with this issue.

Thank You.

With Regards,
Abhishek Shrivastava

I have a third party assembly that I need to strong name because the C# project I'm referencing it in will be strong named. Every time I compile my project I'm getting "Assembly generation failed -- Referenced assembly 'xxxxx' does not have a strong name". The referenced assembly is a .NET assembly that does not have a strong name. It there a way to strong name it? I DO NOT have the source code for the referenced third party assembly.

Hi, We would like our application to be signed and have a strong name. However our application references a 3rd party .dll that does not have a strong name and so when we compile we get the dreaded compiler error: Assembly generation failed -- Referenced assembly 'Xxxxxxxxx' does not have a strong name Is there any way - perhaps with attributes - that my strong named assembly

Dear readers, I have some problems with strong keys. What I want to do is basically this. A - create an application (f.x. strongHello.dll) with a strong key. B - import the functions of this dll into a console application (f.x StrongConsoleApp.exe) and run it if I have somehow specified the public part of the strong key and not otherwise.

I posted this in another group also, and now want to try my luck here... We are using enterprise library (EL) in our application. We want to upgrade our application from .net 1.1 to .net 2.0. Since we have changed code in enterprise library, we can't just go with the newer version, we will have to keep the old version. All out assemblies are strongly named!

My unsigned DLL works in my project that references it as long as I set Copy Local = true. Now I have signed the DLL with the sn.exe generated keys but have not yet moved the DLL into the GAC. Can I use a strong named DLL outside the GAC with Copy Local = false by providing a reference to the public key? If yes to above, please tell me how to reference the public key within

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
