Could not load file or assembly EntityFramework in DotNetNuke - entity-framework

Question

I have a old module in DotNetNuke. I used EF 5 in my project:
I added module to DotNetNuke and it worked properly. But when I add new module that requierd to EF 6 my module gives me an error:
Could not load file or assembly 'EntityFramework, Version=5.0.0.0,
Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' or one of its
dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not
match the assembly reference.
When installing this new module EntityFramework 6 dll file will be replaced with old version (Version=5.0.0.0) file and this causes old module doesn't work.
I read many post for solving this problem but I can't find a way for this issue.
It would be very helpful if someone could explain solution for this problem.

Answer 1

You can add this to your web.config
<configuration>
<runtime>
<dependentAssembly>
<assemblyIdentity name="EntityFramework" publicKeyToken="b77a5c561934e089" culture="neutral" />
<codeBase version="6.0.0.0" href="bin/EntityFramework-6.1.3/EntityFramework.dll" />
</dependentAssembly>
<dependentAssembly>
<assemblyIdentity name="EntityFramework.SqlServer" publicKeyToken="b77a5c561934e089" culture="neutral" />
<codeBase version="6.0.0.0" href="bin/EntityFramework-6.1.3/EntityFramework.SqlServer.dll" />
</dependentAssembly>
</runtime>
</configuration>
You have to add a folder called EntityFramework-6.1.3 into bin folder then add two follow dll to that
1-EntityFramework.dll
2-EntityFramework.SqlServer.dll
