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:

  1. Open my solution in Visual Studio.
  2. Right-click the cloud service project.
  3. Select "Package"
  4. Select "Package" again. note: all settings on this screen yield the same result.
  5. get this error:

enter image description here

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

I am not sure, but maybe this solution will work for you: How to overcome "Could not load type 'Microsoft.Cct.Services.Sqm.IWatSqmService'" without updating? This one is look like the pretty same.
