Could not load file or assembly 'System.Data.SQLite'
- by J. Pablo Fernández
I've installed ELMAH 1.1 .Net 3.5 x64 in my ASP.NET project and now I'm getting this error (whenever I try to see any page):
Could not load file or assembly
'System.Data.SQLite, Version=1.0.61.0,
Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=db937bc2d44ff139' or
one of its dependencies. An attempt
was made to load a program with an
incorrect format.
Description: An
unhandled exception occurred during
the execution of the current web
request. Please review the stack trace
for more information about the error
and where it originated in the code.
Exception Details:
System.BadImageFormatException: Could
not load file or assembly

Culture=neutral,

one of its dependencies. An attempt

incorrect format.
More error details at the bottom.
My Active Solution platform is "Any CPU" and I'm running on a x64 Windows 7 on an x64, of course, processor. The reason why we are using this version of ELMAH is because 1.0 .Net 3.5 (x86, which is the only platform for which it's compiled) gave us this same error on our x64 Windows server.
I've tried compiling for x86 and x64 and I get the same error. I've tried removing the all compiler output (bin and obj). Finally I've made a reference to the SQLite dll directly, something that was not needed for the project to work on the server and I've got this compiler error:
Error 1 Warning as Error: Assembly generation -- Referenced assembly 'System.Data.SQLite.dll' targets a different processor MyProject
Any ideas what the problem might be?
