Article summary

When attempting to import suggestions from DonorCentral, the following error occurs:

System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'Newtonsoft.Json, Version=10.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=30ad4fe6b2a6aeed' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.  

Answer:

This issue occurs after Progress installations where the steps below were not done after the Progress installation on the database server or the terminal\remote desktop server. These steps are included in the documentation for those installations.

If you are not already on FIMS 14.65, then you will need to upgrade to the latest FIMS version first to be sure that you have the most recent files.

To resolve after verifying that you are on at least FIMS 14.65:

1. Go to the N drive
2. Go to npo\found\fims\assemblies
3. Find a file called  'Newtonsoft.Json-v10.dll'
4. Right click on the file and select Copy
5. Go to npo\dlc\bin
6. Paste the 'Newtonsoft.Json-v10.dll' there directly in the bin folder (not into a sub-folder)
7. Re-name the 'Newtonsoft.Json-v10.dll' to 'Newtonsoft.Json.dll'.
 

  • If you have a terminal or remote desktop server that has its own Progress installation then you will need to copy the Newtonsoft.Json-v10.dll' file located in npo\found\fims\assemblies on the database server to the \npo\dlc\bin\ directory on that terminal\remote desktop server as well. Terminal servers with their own Progress installation will have their own bin folder.
