Be sure that you have all the items in the language you selecting and as well that the language is installed (fr-FR) not just (fr)
I guess that should help

MVC Application - Retrieve the LoaderExceptions from Global.asax.cs

I am getting the following error when trying to implement code from my peers:
Unable to load one or more of the requested types. Retrieve the LoaderExceptions property for more information.
I see there is a posting for how to "How to retrieve the LoaderException property?" here (How to retrieve the LoaderException property?)
But, I do not understand where this try catch should go since the code to implement my peers code is in the Global.asax.cs file. (see below)
Any help would be appreciated and if you DOWN VOTE me, please explain why.

The static constructor for Product.Global is raising a NullReferenceException. This is likely due to some hard coded value that is different or unavailable on that system.
Potential candidates would be localization issues (trying to parse strings in the wrong culture) causing a value to not be initialized, a missing configuration value, or anything else that is occurring within the static initialization of that type.

I have an app using COM library. When i run it to test in console app it works good. But when i install it as Windows Service using installutil. In logs i have error

Anyone have idea, how to solve it?

One of the common problems in this scenario are user permissions, because the service runs as a different user than that who runs in console. But judging by the comments on the question, you already checked it.
Another source of errors is the fact that the working directory of the console application is the directory where the EXE is located. With Windows Services, it's not; the working directory is C:\Windows\System32 (or wherever %SYSTEMDIR% is). So, if you have code that relies on the current working directory (such as reading a file in the same directory), it will not work as a service. I'm not sure, but maybe the same problem could happen if you are trying to load a COM library in the same path as the EXE.
So, what I suggest you:
Double check your permissions.
Check any code that relies on relative paths and change it to absolute paths instead.

Service Stack Hello World tutorial: exception EndpointHost.Config is null

I am following the service stack "Hello World" tutorial from http://www.servicestack.net/ServiceStack.Hello/ . But when I am trying to start the asp.net application it says "Value can't be null. Parameter Name: EndpointHost.Config".
The full exception text is:

My global class is:
public class Global : System.Web.HttpApplication
{
/// Web Service Singleton AppHost
public class InfoAppHost : AppHostBase
{
//Tell Service Stack the name of your application and where to find your web services
public InfoAppHost()
: base("Services", typeof(InfoService).Assembly) { }
public override void Configure(Funq.Container container) { }
}
protected void Application_Start(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//Initialize your application
var appHost = new InfoAppHost();
appHost.Init();
}
}
But it seems to never get called.
Compiling the example project from the homepage works fine - but I would like to follow the example from the homepage.
Any ideas how to solve this problem ?

I've deleted my test project and tried the tutorial once again.
When creating the Global.asax file I've deleted the whole class and made another class Global in this file. It seems Application_Start never got called in this class.

The problem as you might have guessed is that appHost.Init() hasn't run. Try wrapping it in a try/catch and logging any errors that might have been thrown.

We had the same problem and solved it by setting "Activate 32-bit-applications" to true in the extended ApplicationPool Settings. (sorry, only have a german Windows so the Settings names are rough guesses)

Took me a while to figure out what I was doing wrong to cause this issue...
this happened to me because I accidentally dragged the Global.asax file into a subfolder in my project.

I found that this error is caused by the WebApiConfig. The example is using ServiceStack and does not not need ASP.NET Web API. That line needs to be commented out inthe Gloabal.asax.cs file.
protected void Application_Start()
{
AreaRegistration.RegisterAllAreas();
// ** comment out ** WebApiConfig.Register(GlobalConfiguration.Configuration);
FilterConfig.RegisterGlobalFilters(GlobalFilters.Filters);
RouteConfig.RegisterRoutes(RouteTable.Routes);
BundleConfig.RegisterBundles(BundleTable.Bundles);
new ProteinTrackerAppHost().Init();
}
