dotnet remoting:
I have a client-activated object that is failing with a
RemotingException. The exception's message is "The method '.ctor' was
not found on the interface/type 'My.Type, MyTypeLibrary,
Version=1.0.2371.15203, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'.".
The client code is hosted in Internet Explorer; the server code is
hosted in IIS, using the binary channel over HTTP.
The client is using the following config values:
<system.runtime.remoting>
<application>
<client url="http://localhost/MyVirtualDir/">
<activated type="My.Type, MyTypeLibrary"/>
</client>
<channels>
<channel ref="http">
<clientProviders>
<formatter ref="binary" />
</clientProviders>
</channel>
</channels>
</application>
</system.runtime.remoting>
The server web.config includes:
<system.runtime.remoting>
<application>
<service>
<activated type="My.Type, MyTypeLibrary"/>
</service>
<channels>
<channel ref="http">
<serverProviders>
<formatter ref="binary"/>
</serverProviders>
</channel>
</channels>
</application>
</system.runtime.remoting>
The MyTypeLibrary does exist in the web application's bin directory.
One other oddity is that the IE-hosted control is being served from a
different virtual directory. The file structure looks like this:
MyVirtualDir (virtual dir)
-> \bin
-> \bin\MyTypeLibrary.dll
-> \DownloadBin (virtual dir, from elsewhere in the filesystem)
-> \DownloadBin\MyControl.dll
The full stack trace (at the point where it leaves my code) is:

There is no InnerException.
How should I go about debugging this? The site has FullTrust in the CAS
policy (I've already verified that). Why is it not finding the
constructor?
