Answer 1

For upgrading latest version and solving these kind of issues;

Under Nuget Manager Console run

PM> Install-Package MySql.Web

this will download latest MySql.Web for you. From project references find dll version by looking its properties.

Then,change any other version in your web.config with this new version. This works.

Answer 2

I have been looking for answer and I find the solution that work for me on fix-for-mysql-connectornet-693

You just need to delete ".v20" from every instance of MySql.Web.v20 in

C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\Config\machine.config

and

C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\Config\machine.config

You can edit files in Notepad (Run As Administrator!).

Answer 3

Another solution:

• check version of .NET used by application pool of your web application. here we consider version is 2.0
• go to folder C:\Program Files (x86)\MySQL\Connector NET 6.7.4\Assemblies\v2.0 (<- depend of your version)
• copy dll from previous folder to C:\Windows\assembly
