The N-tier configurator utility is not intended for Silverlight applications, and as you've found does not work correctly with them. 
 
The utility is intended for use in 2-tier WinClient applications to show how to "easily" partition the application into client and server tiers, and run the BOS hosted by the ServerConsole.  There is no reason to use the utility with a Silverlight application because an SL application is inherently n-tier, and is already partitioned into client and server.

David,
 
Thanks for the link. I think the documentation still refers to DevForce v5.x. Part one of the tutorial is using the Object Mapper to create the domain model file.
 
I've created a small test DevForce Silverlight Application. Here are the files in my solution:
 
 
It simply retrieves rows from a table and displays them in a data grid.
 
It works on my dev workstation. I've deployed it to my remote IIS server and it works there as well.
 
I'm not sure what's causing the error message:
 
The domain model was not found in any DLL...
 
when running the N-Tier Configuration. Is that because the Model1.IB.Designer.cs (which contains the domain model - right?) ends up in a XAP file and not in a DLL?

Have you looked at the example in the DevForce Resource Center?

I just installed v6.0.5.0 and when I run the N-Tier configurator, I get the same message:
 
The domain model was not found in any DLL.
N-tier deployment requires that the model be defined in a class library which can be deployed on both client and server.
 
I'm selecting my silverlight project as my source path.
 
I'm able to publish my SL app with BOS on my remote IIS server and it's working correctly. I just want to know why I get this error and how do I correct it so I can attempt to use the N-Tier Configuration Starter tool.

On your server, and on any machine where DevForce was not explicitly installed and DF assemblies are therefore not in the GAC, you need to supply a few more assemblies.  These are documented in the Deployment section of the Learning Resources, but are:
 
Server (or 2-tier application) -
IdeaBlade.EntityModel
IdeaBlade.EntityModel.Edm
IdeaBlade.EntityModel.Server
IdeaBlade.Linq
IdeaBlade.Core
IdeaBlade.Validation
optional -  IdeaBlade.EntityModel.Web
 
Client -
IdeaBlade.EntityModel
IdeaBlade.Linq
IdeaBlade.Core
IdeaBlade.Validation

at first it thought it was a problem with the n-tier deployment tool now I think it is a problem with the serverconsole because the servconsole wont start giving me the error i mentioned earlier.
 
The domain model is only using references tho the system or ideablade assemblies.
 
So I tried to run the testserverconsole directly on the server putting it in the same map and with isDistributed="false" in app.config
 
The error I get there is Cannot load one or more of the requested types which is also the error I get when starting the serverconsole,
 
I am working on a w7 x64 pc all assemblies were build with target platform any cpu
 
All working fine on my w7 I copy the the server map to my server 2008 pc and there it fails

Is the problem now in the N-tier Deployment tool or in the test application?
 
If the testserverconsole.exe application is failing when trying to communicate with the ServerConsole.exe on a remote server there are a few things to check. 
1) Make sure the ServerConsole.exe was started,
2) Check the debuglog.xml generated by the ServerConsole, it may have diagnostics which help explain the problem, and
3) add error handling to your testserverconsole.exe to trap and display errors.

I made a real small console application
 
which only references :
 
IdeaBlade.Core
IdeaBlade.EntityModel
IdeaBlade.Validation
SKN.FIX.EF - domainmodel
System
System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations.dll
 
and the domainmodel references :
 
IdeaBlade.Core
IdeaBlade.EntityModel
IdeaBlade.Validation
System
System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations.dll
System.Data
System.Data.Entity
System.Runtime.Serialization
 
in the properties cpu is set to any
 
and i get the following error :

I tried everything
 
Even made a little test application in which the server-side only needed the domainmodel dll
 
On my development pc everything works fine, i execute the serverconsole and it runs
 
I copy the server map to my server with the ideablade.core and ideablade.entitmodel.server and keeps getting the error

You can get that exception when you have a .NET CLR conflict with the assembly (.NET version conflicts or 32/64-bit issues).  Can you check the build settings on the assembly in Visual Studio?  I believe the platform target should by AnyCPU, unless you are using any of the libraries that require interop to unmanaged code.

When loading the source path I always receive the error :
 
The domain model was not found in any DLL.
N-Tier deplayment requires that the model be defined in a class library
which can be deployed on both client and server.
 
I am working on a Windows 7 Pro X64.
 
When I deploy manually to two maps and start the serverconsole I receive an error of the domain model.dll not being able to load, with a BadFormatException.
 
What could be the problem here ?
