I have just converted a 2003 webservice to 2005. It used a dll created in C++
however now when running the web service I get the error that it could not
load the specified dll. It seems like a path issue. With the 2003 both the
Web Service Dll and the other dll resided in the bin directory.
Can anyone help
Thanks.

Are you talking about COM Interop? If so you will be to create the
wrapper...

gacutil /i Math.dll
regasm /tlb Math.dll

Or are we talking Component Services?

gacutil /i WebServiceLogic.dll
regsvcs /fc WebServiceLogic.dll

Or something else?

Hi
I am simply talking about a dll which I compile in C++ which is used by the
web sevice. and load the functions using
[DllImport("MyDll.dll")]
private static extern int GetValue(byte[]);

With V2003 when compiling the web service it created a dll in a bin dir and
I simply copied the other dll to the same bin dir and everything worked. Now
it seems like it is running the C# code , there is no web service dll (I dont
want to do Publish Web Site yet) and the only time I can get it to work is if
I make sure my other dll is in one of the systems path directories. Isnt
there another way I can tell the project that I need to run this dll as
well.? why doesnt it use the bin dir any more to find more dlls.
