I am getting an error message in the browser saying it can't find the dll's when I put the project output to a different directory(from "bin" to "..\Any\Debug\") in project property-->build. It can find the dll's if I set it to "bin".

I've tried install the necessary dlls to GAC(Drag and drop a DLL to the GAC ("assembly") in windows server 2008 .net 4.0), try to change the path in web.config (probing privatePath and subdirectories )and use Environment.SetEnvironmentVariable (Set Custom Path to Referenced DLL's? ). I haven't found the right code to try the Post-build event command line(Changing the ASP.NET build folder).

Is there anyone that has been able to find out how to work around this? I'm sure something like this should work but it's not working for me:

<configuration>
   <runtime>
      <assemblyBinding xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1">
         <probing privatePath="..\Any\Debug"/>
      </assemblyBinding>
   </runtime>
</configuration>

I have tried using relative path and hard coded path.

    What is wrong with putting the DLLs in the bin directory? What problem are you trying to solve? – NightOwl888 Jan 06 '18 at 00:15
  • I have other non ASP.NET projects outputting the dll's in one folder and I wanted to put the dll's in one place – JJSSOQ Jan 06 '18 at 22:11
