.NET 2 Microsoft.Web.Services3.dll not found
I am getting the error message
Error 104 D:\3DR-Development\DotNetApplicationsV2\TheMediaGame\TheMediaGameV1\Articles\Detail.aspx: ASP.NET runtime error: Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.Web.Services3, Version=3.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified. D:\3DR-Development\DotNetApplicationsV2\TheMediaGame\TheMediaGameV1\Articles\Detail.aspx 1 1http://localhost/TMGV1/
But I am not trying to use Microsoft.Web.Services3 and my Web.Config does not mention this file anywhere. I have search my entire solution and it makes no reference to Microsoft.Web.Services3
Can anyone help with what might be causing this.
Thanks
Derek

Have you installed WSE before on this box? You might have WSE dll referenced in one of the VS addin? Check {system dir}:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\MSEnvShared\Addins.
Also check your devenv.exe.config and machine.config to see if there is any reference.
hope this helps!

Thanks Hongmei, I will look into this as it sounds possible. I had not explicitly installed WSE on the server as this is a VPS I use.
But are you suggesting I should install it if it is not installed. Or that I should remove the references to it if they appear in the config files.
Thanks again

Hongmei,
I am even getting this error on my dev machine now and it does not have the {system dir}:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\MSEnvShared\Addins folder that you mention so I guess that means it is not installed. The MSEnvShared folder does not exists.
I cannot find any reference to web.services3 in my machine.config or in my devenv.exe.config
It seems that a third party component that I recently used in another project does refrence the microsoft.web.services3.dll and this dll is in it's bin directory. So for now I have just copied that in to my projects bin directory and everything works.
But of course this is very strange as this project should not need it and it does not reference the 3rd party component that uses microsoft.web.services3.dll so it is very strange
