You need to get the actual error code from the server - it looks like the
server has a "friendly" error message handler which is useless for
debugging.
First thing I'd check is that you have given execute permission for the DLL
to the user account that IIS is running under, and also the appropriate
permissions to any other files that your DLL relies upon.
