dotnet setup: I have one solution in my IDE environment. Depending upon my precompile
constants, I create a myDll.dll for my web application. I set up a
deployment package, which can be launched on the target machine. The
application works fine.
However, if I create another myDll.dll with different precompile constants
and create another deployment package for a slightly different application
and then attempt to launch this package on the target machine, the first
application does not work (it freezes, or I get an "object not found" error,
or some other problem).

I thought that, even if these dlls had the same name, since they reside in
each applications respective bin directory there would be no conflict. But
there appears to be one.

I then used stong naming on the dlls, but I still had a problem.

How can I get these two applications to work side by side. Thank you.

Does your assembly export COM classes?
