Strong name Error

[Guest]

I am using C# in VS2005 and trying to make use of the "Data Access
Application Block" version 2

I have created a small test application that to do the testing.

If my application and the Common, Object and Dat modules are not signed DAAB
runs OK but as soon as I sign them I get the following error:


**********************************************************************
An error occurred creating the configuration section handler for
dataConfiguration:

Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Data,
Version=2.0.0.0,
Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies. The
located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference.
(Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)

(C:\Sauce\WindowsApplication17\WindowsApplication17\bin\Debug\WindowsApplication17.vshost.exe.config line 4)
**********************************************************************

I am just learning about Strong Names etc so there is a lot I don't know
(obviously)

I am creating the key pair in VS2005 in the Properties\Signing section. I am
not adding it to AssemblyInfo.cs as i was told there is no need to in VS2005


Any help in solving this problem would be greatly appreciated

You app can't load Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Data assebly dll,
the reason is that it can't be found. You need specify location.
I recomend to download Hands-On Lab and see the samples

Thankyou for your help. I have just downloaded the lab. However, I am having
difficlty understanding why it worked before the modules were signed then
didn't work after.

The application block DLL needs to be signed by your key as well.
