I work on a website project, and add some reference to it. But when put it to the server, it came out error said 'Could not load file or assembly'. I check on Proprety Pages, and I notice it is in GAC, not BIN. So how can I change it?
I search on web and all the solution state I need to set Copy Local=true, but I cannot find where is the Copy Local option. I using Visual Studio 2012.

Solution 1

in your project, look at the References section. Find the resource and open up it's properties. It's right there under -Misc

I would advice you don't copy local, but instead install the resource on your server. You may find that the resource requires many related resources which can get very messy.

Most items in the GAC are installed with some software or framework. You can usually google to find the source.

Of course, this doesn't apply to everything and sometimes it is just easier to copy local.

Hope that helps ^_^

how to install to server?

Andy Lanng 16-Dec-15 8:01am

Do you have remote access to the server? just download the version you want on the server and install it.

I don't have my own server. I rent third party server from server provider company. So, any option ?

Andy Lanng 16-Dec-15 8:20am

I didn't ask if you owned it. I asked if you have remote access to the server? I rent from a few different companies and can remote on to any of my servers

I'd be very surprised if you couldn't get remote access, but if not, contact the server admin and ask them to install it.
