putting C# classes in App_Code -- inetserver asp general

accessing C# classes in App_Code
7/24/2007 1:54:02 PM

I've a simple aspx page whose code behind instantiates a simple class which
exists in a .cs file in the App_Code folder of my project. Runs fine in the
IDE. When I copy the app to my IIS server I get this error in my browser:

Compilation Error
Description: An error occurred during the compilation of a resource required
to service this request. Please review the following specific error details
and modify your source code appropriately.

Compiler Error Message: CS0246: The type or namespace name 'CustomClass'
could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly
reference?)

Source Error:
Line 18: protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
Line 19: {
Line 20: CustomClass c = new CustomClass();
Line 21: Label1.Text = c.GetMessage(TextBox1.Text);
Line 22: }

Source File: c:\Inetpub\wwwroot\AppCode_test\Default.aspx.cs Line: 20

What's up?

Thanks for pointing this out Bob. I found the solution to my problem; the
App_Code folder must sit in the site root, not in the virtual directory.

BTW Bob, do you know where the ASP.NET newsgroup is on MSN?

There was no way for you to know it (except maybe by browsing through some
of the previous questions in this newsgroup before posting yours - always a
recommended practice) , but this is a classic asp newsgroup. ASP.Net bears
very little resemblance to classic ASP so, while you may be lucky enough to
find a dotnet-knowledgeable person here who can answer your question, you
can eliminate the luck factor by posting your question to a group where
those dotnet-knowledgeable people hang out. I suggest
microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.aspnet.
There are also forums at www.asp.net
