Answer 1

Check that the server user has access to the directory where your assemblies are located.

In my case by changing application pool identity from applicationpoolidentity to network service it works hope this will help you.

Answer 3

Sounds like an incorrectly configured server.

First, verify that the assembly does indeed exist.

Second, verify that your worker process account has access to it.

Answer 4

Go to Sysinternals and download Process Monitor: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896645.aspx

Then start it up, filter thread and registry actions away. Clear contents. Run your app and get the error, and then stop the collection in process monitor. Now search for an ACCESS DENIED status, and you'll be able to see the exact file that's causing troubles, as well as the user account trying to get access.

Answer 5

Give full permissions to the running user or group (like MACHINE\users group or DOMAIN\domain users) in

C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\Temporary ASP.NET Files

Use your target .net version number instead of v4.0.30319 if it's other than .net 4.0.
