asp.net site and Could not load file or assembly 'Esri.FileGDBAPI.DLL'

JohnCampbell2 — Wed, 19 Sep 2012 13:30:44 GMT

Hi People,

I've been stumped over this issue for days now... Was hoping someone has come across this...

Receiving this error when I build my asp.net site....

Could not load file or assembly 'Esri.FileGDBAPI.DLL' or one of its dependencies. The specified module could not be found.

The file is in the bin directory and is referenced in my project...

Thanks,
John

John, did you ever figure this out? I am having the same issue with a WCF service.

If the file is in the bin directory then it is something that it is referencing.

You can run the SysInternals Process Monitor tool in order to see what the missing file (or permission error) is.

fuglogvw is another useful utility.

Do not generate any errors.
Thanks for your cooperation.

When you download the API it delivers a bin and bin64 directory. I am just wondering whether or not you using the correct one. I would assume that you are using 64 bit ASP.NET worker processes?

You did copy all the ESRI files from bin or bin64 into your bin directory, correct?

If you have done all of that correctly then I suggest to open the C++ DLL in the Depends utility (Google it). The thing that I want you to check is whether or not MSVCP110.DLL and MSVCR110.DLL can be found. If not then that is your problem. One think that you didn't say is whether your code is C++ or .NET. If it is C++ and you linked with the debug library then the problem is probably that the server machine does not have the debug CRT.

'Esri.FileGDBAPI.DLL' is the C# wrapper. Do you also copy 'FileGDBAPI.dll'?

Hi Richard,

Not if I said it works fine in a windows form application, which tells me there is no problem with the dll, is so or not?. The problem is when I try to create a web application or a WCF and references added, throws me the following error:

'Esri.FileGDBAPI.DLL' is the C# wrapper. Do you also copy 'FileGDBAPI.dll'?

I would copy them all.

The standard ESRI pattern is to develop the APIs in C++ and then provide a .NET wrapper assembly which calls these.

I assume that you have a 64 bit ASP.NET worker. In this case, make sure that your ASP.NET project adds a reference to bin64\Esri.FileGDBAPI.dll and that Copy Local is set to true. Also, you need to manually copy the other DLLs in the bin64 directory such that they are in this directory.

My guess is that your windows form application is x86, i.e. 32 bit.

I do what you tell me, I check that has local copy, and does not work, this generenado the same error. My windows form application is x86 and like I said has no problem.

I assume that your website is in C:\inetpub\wwwroot. From a DOS window do the following:

cd C:\inetpub\wwwroot
dir/s YourWebSiteName > files.txt

and then post that file here. I want to see exactly what files you have.
