I have a site that uses telerik controls, usually i use my owned server for deployment(a company server), everything works fine there. When i make deployment on a shared hosting, however, it gives me the error. I tried to pinpoint the error source, so i made a new website using VS2008, and simply added one radcalendar. i have all needed assemblies in bin folder.
The strange is that the site when i first uploaded to arvixe, was working fine, it was compiled and containing controls from telerik and other third party components.
I tried the website on 2 different hosting, arvixe.com and webhost4life.com, the result. is the same.
Also i noticed that in both hosting, i can't upload a precompiled site (either updatable or non updatable). It makes another error: "default.aspx" is not not precompiled or something...
so i tried to upload the source code. If it is a simple asp.net site without any telerik, then it works, otherwise it gives me the below error.
what could be wrong ?
Anyway, i started to believe that the shared hosting(in general since it is 2 different hosting) doesn't allow my app to read assemblies located inside my website folder (bin folder), so in case of precompiled dlls from website, it is not reading them. Also in case of telerik assembly (Telerik.Web.UI) it is not able read the assembly for maybe the same security restrictions.

Of course the hosting said that they have no problem, and that i should check what is the solution, i already tried all solutions suggested on this forum, nothing worked, So far i tried this:
1-recheck assembly version
2-reupload the telerik assembly to make sure it is not corrupted
3-isolate the problem by including just one calendar on one page, still same problem

Also it is also important to mention that i got a problem before this, i tried to use Cssfriendly.dll for some menu (before i discover how awesome is telerik :D) and it also made problem.

Server Error in '/' Application.

Hi Zaynoun,

I am not quite sure what exactly may cause the problem on your side. I suggest you, however, to check the project's target framework and make sure that it matches the .NET version of the Telerik assembly. The last two digits in the in the assembly (Telerik.Web.UI.DLL) version number indicate the target framework. For example 2010.1.415.35 assembly is compiled for .NET 3.5.

I hope this helps.

Sincerely yours,

Hi Zaynoun,

I had a similar problem on webhost4life - it didn't find my telerik dlls.
My problem was that my website' structure was as follows:
/Root/MyWebSite

The "MyWebSite folder was configured as virtual directory. In addition, under the root folder I had another website with a "bin" folder. In order to solve my problem I just copied the dlls for telerik from:
/Root/MyWebSite/Bin
to
/Root/Bin

Hope that helps,
Nadav
