Question

I have a website that I get the below error on whenever I navigate beyond the default.aspx page.

My issue is that when I run in debug mode via VS08 I do not get the error and when I run the code on a Webserver running IIS6 I do not get the error. However, when I run my site on my development box against IIS7 I get the below error. Also, I am running my IIS7 site out of C:\inetpub\wwwroot. So I don’t know how I could get the error in my C:\Users\ folder. Finally, the method get_profile() has not existed in my code for over 2 weeks.

I have tried rebuilding the solution after deleting my .dlls, I have cleared IIS7s app pool, restarted it, restarted my computer, and redropped the entire folder contents from my development folder 5 times. Nothing has fixed this error. What do I need to do?

Try clearing out the temp files.

C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\Temporary ASP.NET Files
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30128\Temporary ASP.NET Files

And rebuilding.
