PagedList package installed, "missing assembly reference" error in controller

Question

I am following the MVC tutorial, I installed PagedList package, and I cannot use the PagedList reference in the controller.

The type or namespace name 'PagedList' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?).

First sorry for my terrible English. In my case, I use the MVC5 in Visual Studio Community 2015 and I solved the problem this way:

First I delete the cache of Visual Studio and NuGet cache:

Visual studio - go to %LocalAppData% \Microsoft\WebsiteCache and delete all folder.
Nuget - here

After I use the package manager console to remove PagedList.MVC, then remove PagedList and then re-install them again like so:

PagedList and PagedList.Mvc are being installed separately.

NuGet console install commands:

Install-Package PagedList
Install-Package PagedList.Mvc

Make sure you've installed both of packages.

Check your references to see if there is a reference to the PagedList assembly.

If there isn't: Try to reinstall the package

If there is a reference: Check if the file actually exists on the location specified.

well, It kind of works, but I still get an error in the toPagedList method. Reinsalling only adds PagedList.Mvc reference, not the PagedList. – Tomek May 17 '15 at 14:01

Actually I had to install two of those packages separately, thank you, Sir. – Tomek May 17 '15 at 14:04

I use DNN. My problem was the package (DotNetNuke.Core.8.0.1.239) was outdated.

Check in your solution folder if you have the package installed:

..MySolutionFolder\packages\DotNetNuke.Core.8.0.1.239 (your package name)

Right click on Solution, go to Manage Nuget Packages.

Click on Browse, search for DotnetNuke.

Install:

DotNetNuke.Core

DotNetNuke.Web

I had the issue was because I was using another more than one web application and they did not use the same framework version :)
