I have an asp.net project which I am having trouble deploying to our webserver. The error message I receive is:

Exception type:ConfigurationErrorsException Exption Message: Could not load file or assembly 'IdeaBlade.Util, Version=3.3.1.1 ... or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

There is a simple fix for this.  An ASP.NET solution hard-codes the assembly version in the Web.config file.  For example, look at a snippet of code in Web.config for our ASP.NET tutorial:

    <add assembly="IdeaBlade.Persistence, Version=3.4.0.3, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=287B5094865421C0"/>
    <add assembly="IdeaBlade.Persistence.Rdb, Version=3.4.0.3, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=287B5094865421C0"/>
    <add assembly="IdeaBlade.Rdb, Version=3.4.0.3, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=287B5094865421C0"/>
    <add assembly="IdeaBlade.Util, Version=3.4.0.3, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=287B5094865421C0"/>
    <add assembly="IdeaBlade.UI, Version=3.4.0.3, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=287B5094865421C0"/>
    <add assembly="IdeaBlade.UI.WinForms, Version=3.4.0.3, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=287B5094865421C0"/>
    <add assembly="System.Web, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=B03F5F7F11D50A3A"/></assemblies>

The fix is easy.  Go to Web.config and do a grobal relacement of "3.3.1.1" with "3.4.0.3".
