System.DllNotFoundException in windows server 2003

[nagarajan.palanisamy]

Hello,
We developed a DLL using C++ and I am calling the methods on the DLL
using p/Invoke from managed code. The application runs well both as a
console application and as a Windows Service application on Windows
2000 machine. But on windows 2003 server (Standard Edition), only
console application runs but not the windows service application. The
error message I am getting is
"System.DllNotFoundException: Unable to load DLL".

I gave "Full Control" to even "Everyone". But this does not make any
difference.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Naga

Check ur Dependencies... for your C++ DLL you worte, it might not be present
in Window 2003 server. One way would be to do a package of your .NET code
using VS.NET packaging (Setup & Deployment project) and install it on 2003
server. This will make sure that all DLLs are installed. Refer below article
