How did you publish/copy the files to the server? Seems like the TOOLS.dll file is missing on the server.

I could be missing something, you said the site compiles without error, but the  Detailed Compiler Output is showing a fatal error.

You could also try deleting the folder:
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\Temporary ASP.NET Files\root
If access is denied, quit VS and/or restart IIS and try again.

nmarun: the site is compliled locally (development pc) -- then uploaded using ftp (via VS) -- when accessing the remote site (browser), the compille error occurs at that time.

what is this tools.dll that the compiler keeps asking for (at runtime) -- the below is displayed when I am trying to simply start a local page (complile and run in local browser).

source compiles ok -- just when trying to view via browser stage -- not compiling there.

There seems to be a tools.dll in your application. Have a look in the References section in the solution explorer of VS2008. See if this assembly is being copied to the destination when you publish it.

Do you know if this tools.dll was compiled against .net 2.0 or 3.5? Also check if the server is on the same version of the .net framework as your local dev machine.
