Question

DreamweaverControls.DLL


I'm having the problem that after finishing creating a dynamic page with dreamweaver, and when everything was suppoused to work ok, my server (localhost, windows xp pro) tellsme that it cannot find the file DreamweaverControls.dll which later on I searched the pc for it, and tried copying it to the wwwroot of the inetpub folder, and nothing!, I cannot make it work, much less deploy it and do anything... does anybody have an Idea of what am I doing wrong?, I'm using Dreamweaver 8.0

It has to be copied to a folder called /bin off the root. When testing
locally it pays to copy it to both C:\inetpub\wwwroot\bin and
C:\inetpub\wwwroot\SiteName\bin

Take a look at this, especially towards the bottom of the thread. I
hope it helps.

it does help, at least it points me in the right direction, now, but it opens more questions... like for instance...

- dreamveaverControls.dll, is this a file that comes with dreamweaver ? or is this a file that gets automatically created to function with your web application and is unique to it, in other words... if I search for it, find it, and then copy it to the bin folder like you suggest, is that going to make IIS find it? I'm definetely going to try just copying it, and if it works I'm going to have a drink to your health. thank you.

I keep thinking that I did something wrong because according to the books, you are only suppoused to work on your website, your database and then just upload it to your server and that's it... I would also think that if it's going to need something from dreamweaver, it would automatically set it up for me...
