An abstract InjectionMemberElement object cannot be created. Please specify a concrete type

Question

User572431586 posted

Hi,

I have a solution with multiple projects.

I'm trying to publish one of the projects to a web app that are on an Azure domain, everything is working fine on localhost but on the published version I get:

"An error occurred creating the configuration section handler for unity: An abstract InjectionMemberElement object cannot be created. Please specify a concrete type."

Unity is defined in the web.config as:

<configuration>
  <configSections>
           <section name="unity" type="Microsoft.Practices.Unity.Configuration.UnityConfigurationSection, Microsoft.Practices.Unity.Configuration" />
</configSections>
</configuration>

...

  <unity xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/practices/2010/unity">
   ...
   </unity

The project I'm trying to publish also have references to other projects.

Any help what cause this error would be appreciated!
