I am running Visual Studio 2013 and a cloud service project using Microsoft Azure SDK version 2.5 that can't be upgraded to 2.9. It can't be upgraded because it uses Azure In-Role Caching which no longer works in Azure 2.9.
It appears that it can't find the assembly "Microsoft.VisualSudio.WindowsAzure.Services".
Steps to produce the error:
- Open my solution in Visual Studio.
- Right-click the cloud service project.
- Select "Package"
- Select "Package" again. note: all settings on this screen yield the same result.
- get this error:
Things I have tried:
- Remove/reinstall the Azure 2.5 SDK
- Reinstall Visual Studio 2013
- After Reinstalling Visual Studio, reinstall Azure 2.5 SDK
- Uninstalled all other versions of Azure SDK and Tools
- Had all other members of my team package the project successfully on their machines.
- Install Azure SDK 2.6 and Tools
- Upgrade to Azure SDK 2.9
I can't tell which package or component of the Azure SDK 2.5 install instructions I may have missed.
Next steps:
- Install Azure SDK 2.7
- Install Azure SDK 2.8
