I received this run-time error and not exactly sure what caused it. The assembly it's blowing up on is a DLL which I just created a sign for. I also changed the location of the DLL in the Project Reference of the calling program to "False" instead of "True" as the DLL resides in our DLL location. Anyway, here is what the error looks like.
Thanks,
Sounds like you changed two things at once - you signed the dll and changed the copy local setting from true to false. Undo those one at a time and see if it shows up that just one of those things caused the problem or if it's the combination somehow that's causing you trouble.
But why would that cause an error?
Not real sure, but i'm guessing that for some reason it's either not recognizing the dll or it's looking in the wrong place for it.
I was just trying to narrow the cause down if possible so as to not bark up wrong trees. :D

If the change in copy local was the issue, then it's looking in the wrong place. If the change to signing is the issue, then it's not recognizing it.
That's my working hypothesis anyway.
No worries...thanks for your assistance!
What did it turn out to be? Or did it mysteriously self-resolve? :)
Honestly, I don't know. This happens to me alot...I fix things and don't know what the exact reason why it got fixed. Does this ever happen to you?
LOL! Yep, and this sounds like the kind of issue that would be prone to that phenomenon - something outside of the realm of the code itself.
It's terrible in one sense, because since you don't know what you did, then the next time it happens you end up stumbing around again until you happen to get the solution.
On the other hand, fixed is better than not fixed. :D
