I added an AjaxToolkit:AutoCompleteExtender to my ASP.Net 3.5 application. The web service lives in the same web application. Now I am getting this error when I hit F5/Debug in VS2008, and backing out the changes step-by-step so far have not revealed the cause yet.
I can’t seem to get rid of the error. While the application starts up and I don’t notice any issues once it is running.
BindingFailure was detected
Message: The assembly with display name 'VJSharpCodeProvider' failed to load in
the 'LoadFrom' binding context of the AppDomain with ID 4. The cause of the
failure was:
System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly

PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' or one of its dependencies. The system

etc
So I think that this is a non-issue. The exception probably gets thrown all the time, but I had turned on “Break when an Exception is thrown” in Debug/Exceptions for all types there, to diagnose an unrelated problem. Since I unchecked the check boxes to their default state, I no longer see the binding problem.
