When I deployed a web application to a windows 2003 server I got an error on this line of the web.config file
<add assembly=“ADODB, Version=7.0.3300.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a“/>
The error was
Could not load file or assembly ADODB, Version=7.0.3300.0
To solve this in VS2005:
- Create a setup project for the web application
- Right click on the setup project and select Add/Assembly
- Select adodb component and click ok
- From the Solution Explorer select the adodb.dll and from the Properties click the small button in the Folder Field
- Select the folder bin from the Select Folder screen and click ok
- Compile your Setup project and use it to install your application
