I followed installation instructions closely and no build errors were reported.

you have a previous version of sensenet and you upgraded the NuGet packages, am I correct? It seems that this combination does not work, because the component above is installed automatically by the new infrastructure - which is not compatible with your version. The only solution I see here is to downgrade the packages to their older versions (at least last August, maybe older). SenseNet has changed a lot since we moved to .Net Core, and there are some incompatibilities with the .Net Framework libraries. Please consider taking a look at the new "sensenet as a service" solution that will free you from the upgrade hassle.
