Error1Could not load file or assembly Microsoft.Web.Preview or one of its dependencies. Th

Trying to run the samples and this is the error I get. After looking around I see others have gotten this error but with the beta versions.

My install is not a beta release and I have not had any of the betas installed.

Any ideas?

I would look to your web config file or possibly your machine config file. Im betting you somehow got some old beta settings in it. possibly do a search for Microsoft.Web.Preview in your entire solution.

The other thing i just noticed is you said you were running the samples. Im betting your using an old compilation of the sample files that was meant to use the beta version redownload the sample your using and give it another go.

Sorry for the double post

Hi,

If you have installed the AJAX Extensions 1.0, the assembly Microsoft.Web.Preview not exists.

You must to replace all the references and assemblies in the samples for run this.

Hope this helps

Replace with what?

How the Microsoft.Web.Preview not exists with the AJAX extension 1.0, you must to work with the System.Web.Extensions assembly and System.Web.Extensions.Design assembly, installed in the Microsoft ASP.NET folder in Program Files folder.

Replace the web.config with the web.config that is generated in a new ASP.NET AJAX Enabled Web Site.

Or replace your web.config with the web.config file that is in the Microsoft ASP.NET folder.

From InstallationInstructions.txt:

Completing the Installation
--------
After downloading and uncompressing the sample files, copy Microsoft.Web.Preview.dll from the
ASP.NET AJAX CTP installation directory (%Program Files%\Microsoft ASP.NET\ASP.NET 2.0 AJAX
Futures January CTP\v1.0.61025\) to the Bin directory of each sample application. For example,
copy Microsoft.Web.Preview.dll to <installation path>\Contacts\Bin, where <installation path>
is the file path where the ASP.NET AJAX Samples were installed.

You must also copy AjaxControlToolkit.dll from the AJAX Control Toolkit directory to the Bin
directory of each sample application. For example, copy <toolkit installation path>
\AjaxControlToolkit\SampleWebSite\Bin\AjaxControlToolkit.dll to <installation path>\Contacts\Bin,
where <toolkit installation path> is the installation path for the AJAX Control Toolkit and
<installation path> is the file path where the ASP.NET AJAX Samples were installed.

Earlier in InstallationInstructions.txt are the download locations for the Futures CTP and the Control Toolkit.
