There is a public, parameterless ctor, but that wasn't the one being called.
I did finally figure out the problem. Both the type being remoted, and the type calling it, are in the same assembly. The type calling it was using a ctor marked "internal" (rather than public), which obviously compiles just fine, but fails when it's being called over Remoting (with the above mentioned unhelpful error). Changing the calling type to call a public ctor fixed the error. On 7/3/06, Patrick Steele <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

I have a client-activated object that is failing with a RemotingException. The exception's message is "The method '.ctor' was not found on the interface/type 'My.Type, MyTypeLibrary, Version=1.0.2371.15203, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'.". The client code is hosted in Internet Explorer; the server code is hosted in IIS, using the binary channel over HTTP. The client is using the following config values: <system.runtime.remoting> <application> <client url="http://localhost/MyVirtualDir/";> <activated type="My.Type, MyTypeLibrary"/> </client> <channels> <channel ref="http"> <clientProviders> <formatter ref="binary" /> </clientProviders> </channel> </channels> </application> </system.runtime.remoting> The server web.config includes: <system.runtime.remoting> <application> <service> <activated type="My.Type, MyTypeLibrary"/> </service> <channels> <channel ref="http"> <serverProviders> <formatter ref="binary"/> </serverProviders> </channel> </channels> </application> </system.runtime.remoting> The MyTypeLibrary does exist in the web application's bin directory. One other oddity is that the IE-hosted control is being served from a different virtual directory. The file structure looks like this: MyVirtualDir (virtual dir) -> \bin -> \bin\MyTypeLibrary.dll -> \DownloadBin (virtual dir, from elsewhere in the filesystem) -> \DownloadBin\MyControl.dll The full stack trace (at the point where it leaves my code) is: Server stack trace: at System.Runtime.Remoting.Activation.LocalActivator.GetMethodBase(IConstru ctionCallMessage msg) at System.Runtime.Remoting.Activation.LocalActivator.Activate(IConstruction CallMessage ctorMsg) at System.Runtime.Remoting.Activation.ActivationListener.Activate(IConstruc tionCallMessage ctorMsg) at System.Runtime.Remoting.Messaging.StackBuilderSink._PrivateProcessMessag e(IntPtr md, Object[] args, Object server, Int32 methodPtr, Boolean fExecuteInContext, Object[]& outArgs) at System.Runtime.Remoting.Messaging.StackBuilderSink.PrivateProcessMessage (RuntimeMethodHandle md, Object[] args, Object server, Int32 methodPtr, Boolean fExecuteInContext, Object[]& outArgs) at System.Runtime.Remoting.Messaging.StackBuilderSink.SyncProcessMessage(IM essage msg, Int32 methodPtr, Boolean fExecuteInContext) Exception rethrown at [0]: at System.Runtime.Remoting.Proxies.RealProxy.HandleReturnMessage(IMessage reqMsg, IMessage retMsg) at System.Runtime.Remoting.Proxies.RealProxy.PrivateInvoke(MessageData& msgData, Int32 type) at System.Runtime.Remoting.Activation.IActivator.Activate(IConstructionCall Message msg) at System.Runtime.Remoting.Activation.LocalActivator.DoRemoteActivation(ICo nstructionCallMessage ctorMsg) at System.Runtime.Remoting.Activation.LocalActivator.Activate(IConstruction CallMessage ctorMsg) at System.Runtime.Remoting.Activation.AppDomainLevelActivator.Activate(ICon structionCallMessage ctorMsg) at System.Runtime.Remoting.Messaging.ClientContextTerminatorSink.SyncProces sMessage(IMessage reqMsg) at System.Runtime.Remoting.Activation.ActivationServices.Activate(RemotingP roxy remProxy, IConstructionCallMessage ctorMsg) at System.Runtime.Remoting.Proxies.RemotingProxy.Invoke(IMessage reqMsg) at System.Runtime.Remoting.Proxies.RealProxy.PrivateInvoke(MessageData& msgData, Int32 type) at My.Type..ctor(Boolean param) There is no InnerException. How should I go about debugging this? The site has FullTrust in the CAS policy (I've already verified that).
