Rebus.Injection.ResolutionException with Newtonsoft.Json v12.0.3

[gitter-me]

Hi, I get Rebus.Injection.ResolutionException with Newtonsoft.Json v12.0.3 with the following message: "Could not resolve Rebus.Serialization.ISerializer with decorator depth 1 - registrations: Rebus.Injection.Injectionist+Handler"

The exception happens on configure:

_bus = Configure
     .With(_handlerActivator)
     .Logging(l => l.None())
     .Timeouts(t => t.StoreInMemory())
     .Transport(t => t.UseInMemoryTransport(new InMemNetwork(), "my-custom-queue"))
     .Start();

I upgrade the Json lib to v12 because I use it in other places as well. With v11 it works.

Could you maybe post the whole stack trace?

Funny. I mean, it's pretty obvious that you've updated the Newtonsoft JSON.NET dependency from version 11 to 12, but the NuGet client usually handles that somehow, e.g. by inserting assembly binding directives if necessary.

I seem to recall having updated JSON.NET to version 12 myself in several projects without any problems.

Could you maybe try and do a reinstall of Rebus? (e.g. like update-package rebus -reinstall in the package manager console)

The binding redirect was my issue.

Perfect! Good to hear you made it work 🙂
