If anyone is interested I still don't know why I got the above error, but I
was able to work around the problem by using the Pre-Compile approach to
deployment -- this seems to be working. But if one researches this
problem -- as I have done -- you will see that there is no single consistant
solution to this problem, which to me suggests that nobody really knows
exactly what the issue is, but used a "blanket" approach to try and resolve
(just as I did).
It boggles my mind that so many people are having the same type of problem
and it was NOT address. As much as I like to believe I produce the best
applications in the world, I know when I've developed an usability weakness
just by sheer volume of people not understanding how to accomplish a
specific task. Giving Microsoft the benefit of the doubt and assuming these
are "developer" issues, they should still have recognized the weakness in
their design for deployment of ASP.NET 2.0 web applications.
Sometimes I think Microsoft do this intentionally so that it justifies the
sales of books and keeps those people that write books in a good revenue
stream. Yeah, I'm a little frustrated because my deadlines have come and
gone and my clients aren't happy and neither am I especially since I sold
them on ASP 2.0 as being more secure, future proof, and faster to produce
end results (aka solutions) as I foolishly thought that moving from my local
development environment to a web server would be a relatively simple 10
minute task, rather than a 2 day project with no real concrete resolution.

I've converted over my ASP 1.1 NET app to ASP 2.0 NET and everything is
working when I'm running local host, but when I copy the files up to my
Web Server I get the above error. I've done some research but so far
nothing has resolved this error:
A lot of people having the same issue:
http://geekswithblogs.net/ranganh/ar.../25/37610.aspx
What I've tried so far with NO success...
1. ReBuild applicaiton -- my WebApplication1.DLL is not longer being
generated (it was when web app was ASP .NET 1.1) - completely missing
2. deleting all DLL's and recompiling again did not work either
3. IIS Web Site properties are set to ASP.NET 2.0.50727
Anything else I might try??
Thanks, Rob.
