Also, if you have more than one projects and referred amongst them check them one by one. It is possible that some of your project's reference gets removed from the other one. –NeverHopeless Aug 5 '13 at 9:06 1 You'll need to use Fuslogvw.exe, start it from the Visual Studio Command Prompt.

When I http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12226676/the-module-was-expected-to-contain-an-assembly-manifest run it it works great. The library is Awesomium, contains both c++ library and c# wrappers When I create reference to this project from my ASP.NET MVC 4 project I get the following error: Exception Details: System.BadImageFormatException: Could not load file or assembly 'file:///D:\Projects\Development\ProGamers\GamingSite\bin\avcodec-52.dll' or one of its dependencies. The module was expected to contain an assembly manifest. Things I've tried: Coping the dlls, but it still doesn't work (The file exists). Registering it in the GAC but I've got the same error there. Make sure using .NET Framework 4.0 (and not client profile) 2 files with the same dll/exe name causing conflict - I dont have it. Change the platform of the solution to AnyCPU/Mixed Platforms.
