Unable to resolve type: React.IReactEnvironment

[fm-gawdeprasad]

Hi Team,

As per the instructions given on link1. I created a sample React.Net application in Visual Studio 2013. Then I opened it in VS2015 (I wanted to use MVC4 setup). But when I run the application I get error Unable to resolve type: React.IReactEnvironment.

I am sharing the zipped solution with this so that you can reproduce it easily. It can be accessed at link2

I worked on it further and figured out that ReactEnvironment will not be available when ReactConfig.Configure() is executing so I moved the statement to resolve IReactEnvironment within App_Start() of Gobal.asax and it is working fine on my local box (Windows 8 .Net 4.5.2 framework) but when I move it to the testing machine (Windows Server 2008 R2 .Net 4.5.2), it gives following exception

I checked it on Server 2012 and 2016 as well, where it works fine but only 2008 seems to have some issues which I am not able to figure out yet. Luckily all production servers are on Server 2016 but for testing I have disabled ReactJs.Net till I figure out the issue.

You can check my sample code at link1

Any direction where I can look into would be of great help.

@cw-gawdeprasad I recommend you to read the “MSIE” section of “Misconceptions about the JavaScript Engine Switcher version 2.X” discussion.

Thanks a lot @Taritsyn . I should have first read your article. IE is the culprit.
