Development with SharePoint 2010

“The language-neutral solution package was not found”

with 3 comments

We sometimes get this error when deploying SharePoint 2010 (beta 2) solutions from Visual Studio 2010:

Error occurred in deployment step ‘Retract Solution’: The language-neutral solution package was not found.

We don’t know why this happens, possibly some beta problem, but one solution is to call the Delete method on the solution directly, using PowerShell:

(get-spsolution mysolution.wsp).Delete()

You can also run get-spsolution without parameters to see which solutions are currently installed in the farm.

  1. Hello

    1) Go to the solution folder in your disk Clear your PKG, obj, and bin Folders

    2) IISReset
