  To resolve the error regarding the missing 'Volo.Abp.Account.Pro.Public.Web' assembly when migrating from IdentityServer to OpenIddict in your auth-server, you need to ensure that all IdentityServer-related package references are fully replaced with their OpenIddict counterparts, as described in the official ABP migration guide.

  Here are the key steps you should follow:

  1. Update Package References:

     • In your AuthServer .csproj file, remove any references to:

       <PackageReference Include="Volo.Abp.Account.Pro.Public.Web.IdentityServer" ... />
       <PackageReference Include="Volo.Abp.AspNetCore.Authentication.JwtBearer" ... />
       

     • Add the OpenIddict package:

       <PackageReference Include="Volo.Abp.Account.Pro.Public.Web.OpenIddict" Version="8.1.2" />
       

  2. Update Module Dependencies:

     • In your AuthServer module, replace:

       using Volo.Abp.IdentityServer;
       typeof(AbpAccountPublicWebIdentityServerModule)
       

       with:

       using Volo.Abp.OpenIddict;
       typeof(AbpAccountPublicWebOpenIddictModule)
       

  3. Clean and Rebuild:

     • Delete the bin and obj folders in your solution.
     • Run dotnet clean and dotnet build to ensure all old references are removed.

  4. Restore NuGet Packages:

     • Run dotnet restore to ensure all required packages are downloaded.
     • If you are using a private NuGet feed for ABP Commercial, make sure your nuget.config is correct and you are authenticated.

  5. Check for Transitive Dependencies:

     • If any other project in your solution still references the old IdentityServer-based package, it may cause this error. Ensure all projects are updated.

  6. Version Consistency:

     • Make sure all ABP Commercial packages are on the same version (8.1.2 in your case).

  If you follow these steps and the error persists, double-check that there are no lingering references to Volo.Abp.Account.Pro.Public.Web.IdentityServer or Volo.Abp.Account.Pro.Public.Web in any project or module dependency.

  For more details, see the official migration guide:

  • https://abp.io/docs/commercial/latest/migration-guides/openIddict-microservice

  This approach is based on the official ABP documentation and aligns with the recommended migration process.

  hi

  Can you run it outside Docker?

  You can check the image, maybe the DLL files are not copied into it.

  See https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/host-and-deploy/docker/building-net-docker-images?view=aspnetcore-9.0#the-dockerfile

  Hi,

  Everything was working fine prior to the migration to OpenIddict.

  The issue starts to come when UrvinFinanceAuthServerModule started dependency on AbpAccountPublicWebOpenIddictModule which internally depends on AbpAccountPublicWebModule, which is now causing problems on dotnet run.

  Please let me know if there’s a recommended way to handle or override this dependency in the context of OpenIddict.

  hi

  Are you using the source code reference of account and openiddict modules?

  Can you share your project source code?

  Thanks.

  Yes, we’re using source code references for the Account modules, and previously, IdentityServer was also used as a source code reference. However, during the migration, I switched to using the package reference for the OpenIddict module (version 8.1.2, same as the rest).

  Could this mismatch between source code reference and package reference be causing the issue?

  I can't share the source code, but I'm happy to connect tomorrow to walk through the setup. Let me know if that works for you.

  Hi

  We have multiple microservices referencing this module, and each microservice’s DDD layer also has its own .csproj files.

  Given the complexity of the setup, I believe it would be most effective if we could connect at your preferred time, so I can walk you through the structure and you can guide me accordingly.

  Please let me know what time works best for you.

  Can you open your solution in VS Code and search for the Volo.Abp.Identity and Volo.Abp.Account keywords in all *.csproj files globally?

  Because your projects do not use the package reference for the Account and Identity modules.

  According to this ticket, we need to replace the PackageReference with a ProjectReference. I’ve downloaded the Volo.Abp.Account.Pro module source code, but it's currently not building. Could you help identify what might be causing the issue? Once the module builds successfully, I’ll proceed with replacing the package reference.
