I don't have experience yet with the latest release.maybe there is another DLL dependency that wasn't present in my 5.0.2 release. Can you easily put the 5.0.2 DLLs in your application directory and update the project DLL reference accordingly and give it a try?

I have tried reference the file in my ms4w install directory, so: C:\Program Files\ms4w\Apache\cgi-bin\mapscript\csharp This was actually the first thing I tried but it have me the same error for the first time so I experimented with hunting all dll's and copying them in the application folder per recommendations but this caused me to receive the same error.

Is your VS project referencing the mapscript DLL in your Debug/Release folder or is it referencing the one in your C:\Program Files\MS4W folder? Since I have a C# app, I have a VS project reference to just the mapscript_csharp.dll file in a common 3rd party DLLs folder under my source code project. When this loads, it will attempt to load the other dependent DLLs. Try that approach with your C# app to see if you can narrow the problem.

Indeed you had a couple more dll's than I but still after moving more over I receive the same error. I am trying to run a vb.net <http://vb.net/> project but I also have a c# one that produces the same error. The tutorial says I can use the mapscript.dll and mapscript_csharp.dll that is in ms4w. Did you find that to be true or had you compiled your own? Also, I think it's worth noting: I used the newest version of MS4W that seems only weeks old... It now has a nice installer that allows you to specify the installation path where previously it demanded to be installed in the root ex: C:\ms4w or D:\ms4w... Since I was able to choose, I chose C:\program files\ms4w. Would this be an issue do you think?

Hi Guys, I am following the tutorial on http://www.paolocorti.net/2006/09/20/mapserver-tutorial-for-c-mapscript-asp- net/ regarding getting started with MapServer on .Net. I eventually hit a snag where I run into error "The type initializer for 'OSGeo.MapServer.mapscriptPINVOKE' threw an exception" when trying to run the demo application. I have tried several demo projects in Visual Studio and I receive the same errors. Running down the stack, this seems to be the general exception: {"Unable to load DLL 'mapscript': The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E)"} This happens even with projects that are coming with there own mapserver.dll and all other necessary filesinthe bin folder. Does anyone have any experience with dealing with MapServer on .Net and can anyone help me or point me in the right direction. Right now I guess I am looking at downloading Dependancy Walker to try to see if I can get further into this exception, but I just want to know if anyone else has ever run into this before. Thanks, Nelson Soto
