asp.net - "Could not load type" error trying to install HTTPModule on IIS6 - Web.config error -


two hours of searching google , stackoverflow , i've gotten nowhere. not related code-behind, why i've had no luck far.

here's problem: have legacy website running iis6 , need install httpmodule on add processing request specific file type. i've written module, copied on application's /bin directory, , added following web.config:

<system.web>   <httpmodules>     <add name="yourmodule" type="securitymodule.securitymodule" />   </httpmodules> </system.web> 

then fire website and... "server error in /myapplication".

here entirety of gives me:


configuration error

description: error occurred during processing of configuration file required service request. please review specific error details below , modify configuration file appropriately.

parser error message: not load type 'securitymodule.securitymodule'. (d:\websites\reports\web.config line 4)

source error:

line 2:     <system.web> line 3:       <httpmodules> -->line 4:            <add name="yourmodule" type="securitymodule.securitymodule" /> line 5:       </httpmodules> line 6:     </system.web> 

source file: d:\websites\reports\web.config line: 4

version information: microsoft .net framework version:2.0.50727.3625; asp.net version:2.0.50727.3618


line 4, added arrow, red. , that's it! no explanation, no hints on go. "could not load type". have tried sorts of things around this:

  • played name of module in case got wrong. , string in type.
  • changed /bin /bin
  • make sure module compiled against .net framework 2.0
  • abandoned web.config , tried setting mapping in iis 6 (got 404s one).
  • related previous, tried making files of extension go through asp.net isapi module wildcard mapping , configuring module. brought me full circle error.

can tell me what's going on here? or, failing that, can point me in direction? @ point, direction do. :) i'm @ complete dead end.

thanks!

you should use assembly qualified name.

namespacequalifiedtypename, assemblyname
