Hi, 

I have upgraded my local development environment to 9.5.0 and the site works fine. However when I come to build our solution I get:

The type 'PortalModuleBase' is defined in an assembly that is not referenced. You must add a reference to assembly 'DotNetNuke, Version=9.2.1.533.

I have gone through every project and checked that the DotNetNuke.dll referenced is the 9.5.0 one in the bin folder. And when I double click the error and go through to the definition of PortalModuleBase, I can find it without a problem with "Assembly DotNetNuke, Version=9.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null" written at the top of the file. 

Any ideas?

Scott

Not to worry...Projects were not targetting .NET 4.7.2

This can be common over the years as one upgrades a DNN site with custom extensions on it.  :)
