Cannot access "EO.Web.dll" error

Sometimes on Windows 2003 Server, you may encounter the following exception when running the Web application or the sample package:

Configuration Error

Description: An error occurred during the processing of a configuration file required to service this request. Please review the specific error details below and modify your configuration file appropriately.

Source Error:

This occurs when EO.Web Controls runtime dll - EO.Web.dll, is being locked by other programs. Two most likely reasons are:

  1. On Windows 2003, Indexing Service frequently locks dlls when it tries to index files in background;
  2. Anti-virus program sometimes locks files in background while scanning files;

Try to stop Windows Indexing Service and any anti-virus program to solve this problem.
