I am refactoring a classic .NET Framework App to .NET 8, and when I moved some classes into their own library I started getting a “No valid constructor could be found” error.

The error is being thrown on line 91 when WebTask.Wait() is called.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Full details are as follows;
