I'm trying to use the FGDB API .NET wrapper with a .NET webservice. With the help of this post: http://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/24809/using-file-gdb-api-net-wrapper-in-asp-net-web-service, I was able to get it working in debug mode, but when I try to deploy, I get the good 'ol Could not load file or assembly 'Esri.FileGDBAPI' or one of its dependencies. An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format error. Does anybody have any ideas?
Could you have referenced the 32-bit DLL instead of the 64-bit, or vice versa? Windows returns a "file not found" code when the first file found has an incompatible architecture.
If I'm open up the website in VS 2010, and run it in debug mode, it runs fine. If I open it up in VS 2010 via Administrator, and then run in debug mode, it crashes like it does when I try and deploy. Here is the error message:

I'm referencing the 32 bit version of the API, however as you can see, when the web site is delpoyed, it wants to use the Framework for 64 bit. Could this be the problem and do you know how to reference the Framework for 32 bit?
This way out of my end of the development pool, but it seems as if the non-debug application is 64-bit, and that you should try building it as a 64-bit app.
