PQ Dashboard launch

GPA Products

Hello, I have been going through the installation process for the PQ dashboard. Historian, openXDA and PQ dashboard all installed fine. When I go to launch PQ dashboard I come across the following page error. Any assistance would be helpful. I am running Win 10, SQL Express 2014.

Thanks.

Is there a stack trace you can send us to help pinpoint the location of the error in the source code?

Is this what you need?

WRN: Assembly binding logging is turned OFF.
To enable assembly bind failure logging, set the registry value [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog] (DWORD) to 1.
Note: There is some performance penalty associated with assembly bind failure logging.
To turn this feature off, remove the registry value [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog].

Yes, that stack trace is helpful. It seems this error occurs because of a change we made in v3.0 of PQ Dashboard. Although we put out a release of that version, there were a number of major changes that have yet to be tested in any production environment so I expect there would be some issues. I recommend installing v2.6 of both openXDA and PQ Dashboard for now until we get those issues ironed out for the v3.1 release.

Will do, thank you kindly.
