The resource object with key 'Login' was not found. (asp.net and azure)

Question

User-1178735859 posted

I publish web app and database to azure, and I can link my local to azure database. the web app is working on my local. but I run paxxxxxx.azurewebsites.net, I got the error:

The resource object with key 'Login' was not found.

<asp:MenuItem Value="Login" Text="<%$Resources:Resource.us,Login%>" NavigateUrl="~/Account/Login"></asp:MenuItem>

I open vs2013 and I can find the key in "Resource.us.resx" and "Resource.zh.resx" on "App_GlobalResources" folder.

I am not sure what is going on (the point is the web is working on my local when I link to azure database).

I can find some info on "app service editor":

in "bin", I can find "resources.dll" file in "zh" only, it means I miss "us" file?

thanks for any idea.

right-click properties on your resource file and change the "Build Action" to "Content" and see if that adds your resource to the bin folder

Other than what JBetancourt mentioned, you will have to Set the .resx file to "Copy to Output Directory" to Copy always.

Thanks. I did both like you and JBetancourt. the error is gone. but I got new error:

Could not find any resources appropriate for the specified culture or the neutral culture.  Make sure "Resources.Resource.resources" was correctly embedded or linked into assembly "App_GlobalResources.thxpsmte" at compile time, or that all the satellite assemblies required are loadable and fully signed.

finally the problem is fix.

what I did 4 steps:

1. set 2 resource files "content" and "copy if newer".

2. publish

3, set 2 resource files "embedded"

4. publish again.

Thanks guys
