Strong naming assembly in an vb aspx project

[job]

I put my StrongNameKey.snk in my root foler.

in my assemblyinfo.vb I have:
<Assembly: AssemblyKeyFileAttribute("StrongNameKey.snk")>

I get the error "Error creating assembly manifest: Error reading key
file 'StrongNameKey.snk' -- The system cannot find the file
specified."

???

Hi,

The placement of key depends on what mode are you compiling your vb project
with i.e. Debug or Release.
This is a VB issue cause the build directory for VB.NET assemblies is not
the same as the output directory, which usually is \bin (relative to the
project). If the solution configuration is in the default Debug mode, the
output directory is \obj\Debug. If in Release mode, it's \obj\Release. This
is where the strong
name key file must be placed.

HTH,

Piyush

Hmm. my project is a web project and I only have a bin output folder.
Even in my unittest class project in the same solution, I have the
same error. Strange.
