Hi,

I had an error "could not load file or assembly" after adding a custom nuget package as dependency of a GQI script.

In the XML script, the GQI library name contains dots and spaces.

    <Param type="libraryName">ServiceGuide.GQI.Get Properties</Param>

After removing space and replacing dots by underscores, i don't knwo why, but it seems i don't have the dependency error anymore in my App.

    <Param type="libraryName">ServiceGuide_GQI_GetProperties</Param>

The problem is : there is a duplicated items in query Data Source. I needed to select the new one and save.

The ideal would be that the original query would be overwritten.

Even after removing the old dll/xml files on dataminer server, and restarting GQI service. There are still 2 items for the same GQI.

How to replace or remove it?

Thanks for your feedbacks.

Hi Kevin, when you said that you removed the old dll files on the dataminer server, do you mean that you went to C:/Skyline DataMiner/Scripts/Libraries and deleted the dlls associated with your GQI?

Hi Bautista, yes the folder you mentioned. I forgot, i have 2 DMA (1+1 main/backup). After removing on both servers, the old item is removed from list.

I found an explanation of the bug.

If you have dots `.` in the library name, in the file "App.config.json", the Script Name and the Library Name are not stored as expected.

We should have:

  • ScriptName : ServiceGuide.GQI.Get Properties
  • LibraryName : ServiceGuide.GQI.Get Properties

What we have:

It explains, why we have error when the LCA is trying to load GQI library.

To fix it, i needed to rename the library (without dots) in XML script.

<Param type="libraryName">ServiceGuide_GQI_GetProperties</Param>

AND repair the script name and library name in "App.config.json"

  • ScriptName : ServiceGuide.GQI.Get Properties
  • LibraryName : ServiceGuide_GQI_GetProperties

After saving and publishing, it works again.

And to remove obsolete reference from Data Source query list (GQI with old library), on all agents: stop the Dataminer GQI service, remove old dll in "C:/Skyline DataMiner/Scripts/Libraries".
