IIS not "finding" deployed of DLL in a search path

Dear All,
We keep all our DLLs in the bin directory. We do not want to do this
for iQS
dlls. So we want to deploy some dlls in bin and some in
\iqs\bqsv51\bin
directory.

We have found out that if we add the following to web.config,
then it works with files created as class libraries. (i.e. IIS finds
them)

==============================
<runtime
<assemblyBinding xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1"
<probing privatePath="bin;iQS\BQSv51\bin"/
</assemblyBinding
</runtime
=============================================
BUT - that does not work for dlls created as ASP.NET or Web
Service projects
(DLLs associated with aspx/asmx files). The reason is that such files
have
an associated "Codebase".

"WHAT DO WE HAVE TO DO SO THAT even such DLLs are found by IIS".

See for more details:

debasesorprobing.htm

and

ms-help://MS.VSCC/MS.MSDNVS/Cpqstart/html/cpsmpnetsamples-howtoassemblies.htm

Thanks a lot in advance.
Many Regards
Sunil

Did you create a virtual directory in IIS?

Dear Dan,
I have a Virtual directory iMedWS in which I have a sub directory
ModNr233 under which I have kept my aspx page...Do I need to create a
Virtual directory for ModNr233 too???...this would be tedious as I
have a subdirectory under iMedWS for every module aspx page...Is there
a easy way out...

Thanks a lot in advance...
Many Regards
Sunil

Try altering the src attribute of the @page directive in
the aspx file.

Dear Dan,
I tried to set the src path but it gave me the following error:

Parser Error
Description: An error occurred during the parsing of a resource
required to service this request. Please review the following specific
parse error details and modify your source file appropriately.

Parser Error Message: The virtual path '/iqs/bqsv51/bin' maps to
another application, which is not allowed.

Source Error:

Line 1: <%@ Page Language="vb" AutoEventWireup="false"
Codebehind="WebExpPage.aspx.vb" src="\iqs\bqsv51\bin"
Inherits="WebExceptionPage.WebExpPage"%>

Can u tell me where I am wrong?

Thanks a lot in advance.
Many Regards
Sunil

I think you are trying to do something that is not
allowed. The code behind and the aspx pages need to be in
the same web app. Code behind is usally located in the bin.

Dear Dan,
I think it is possible to specify the dll in a different directory
other than bin...I guess we have to change the Web.Config of the aspx
file and use the Assembly attribute. But I don't know how to do
it...if anyone has tried it...it could be nice if they could share
this information with us...

Thanks a lot in advance.
Many Regards
