I have a small application that uses SQL Server 2005 Express with CLR stored procedures. It has been successfully installed and runs on many computers running XP and Vista.

To create the assembly the following SQL is executed (names changed to protect the innocent): CREATE ASSEMBLY myAssemblyName FROM 'c:\pathtoAssembly\myAssembly.dll'

On one computer (a test machine that reflects other computers targeted for installation) that is running Vista and has some very aggressive security policy restrictions I receive the following error:

<< Start Error Message >>

Check if the referenced assemblies are up-to-date and trusted (for external_access or unsafe) to execute in the database. CLR Verifier error messages if any will follow this message

The C# DLL is defined as “Safe” as it only uses data contained in the database. The DLL is not normally signed, but I provided a signed version to test and received the same results.

The installation is being done by someone else, and I don’t have access to the box, but they are executing scripts that I provided and work on other computers.

I have tried to find information about this error beyond what the results of the script provide, but I haven’t found anything helpful.

The person executing the script to create the assembly is logged in with an Admin account, is running CMD as admin, is connecting to the DB via Windows Authentication, has been added to the dbo_owner role, and added to the server role SysAdmin with the hopes that it is a permissions issue. This hasn't changed anything.

Do I need to configure SQL Server 2005 Express differently for this environment?

Is this error logged anywhere other than just the output from SQLCMD? What could cause this error? Could Vista security policies cause this?

I don’t have access to the computer (the customer is doing the testing) so I can’t examine the box myself.

TIA
