Web app references problem ?

[michaeltorus]

Hi

I've got a web app that has a few references .. nothing strange about that!

However, when I ran it today, it came back with an error about a method in another Dll not existing, which was correct because I changed it earlier.

The problem I have with it, is that it compiles fine. It doesn't copy the newer version of the dll it references though? even when I unregistered it, re-compiled the reference dll again, reset the reference from the web app, and did a full re-compile - even then it didn't copy the latest version of the dll?

It only when I tried to run it, but surely this should not have compiled in the first place ?

Any idea ?

might want to try the COPY LOCAL option on the properties of that reference...
I've had funny things with that in the past.

not sure, if you have already tried deleting the content of bin
directory and then a a full re-compile ..
I have experianced some thing similar , and this copied over the new
versions.. Most likely you may find a lock on some DLLs with message
"This file is in use by another process .." . If so try, close Visual
Studio , restart IIS, Reboot computer etc

good luck
