Hi Guys,

I have an ASP.net WebService which uses a Library, this has a dependency on some third party .dlls.

If I add a reference to the Library to my webservice, I get a COMException and I can't load the site. I thought it may be to do with aspnet user credentials, so I have tried impersonating and using processModel in machine.config but nothing seems to work.

The .dlls are for communicating with hardware so I am not even using them on the server just other parts of the library, is there any way I can fix this?

I'm running on Windows XP Pro SP3 with Visual 2008 SP1 and .net 3.5.

I am thinking the only way of fixing it, is to split up the library into hardware and non-hardware based.

Cheers, Sarkie

A: 

Thanks to Kim Gräsman for setting me on the right track.

The reason the procedure was missing, is because asp.net is loading the .dlls from %windir%\system32 not current directory.

Looking in there, were some very old version of the .dlls (not sure who/how they got there). Deleting these showing a FileIOException, so replacing these with the latest .dlls seems to have fixed it.

sarkie, glad it helped! I see now that the error message hints that the referenced dll has failed to import.
