I am trying to move an application from my system to a new test system. I really should have tried an easier program first, but I didn't really have a chance. My application was originally written in ASP.NET 1.1, but was migrated to 2.0 during development. The reason this is an issue is because the application is using the Microsoft.Web.UI.WebControls.dll for the tree view and tab strip controls that didn't exist prior to 2.0. Well, that is where my problem lies. I am getting an access denied message when it is trying to load that dll. I am impersonating a user and I am pretty sure that I have granted access every where that I needed. Please assist.
Here is the ASP.NET error message:
