I am trying to deploy my solution package (wsp) to SharePoint 2007 environment. The WSP contains a feature which loads the feature receiver class to deploy a timer job at run time.
While deploying this WSP, I am consistently getting
Feature
'fb631f6c-2c46-4ab5-b7b3-f3d0c949c5f0'
could not be installed because the
loading of event receiver assembly
"XXX, Version=1.0.0.0,
Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=bad6857072694970"
failed:
System.IO.FileNotFoundException
I have double checked everything (public key token, assembly name etc) is correct. I have deployed many WSP in past and I am confused why this one is failing.
To debug this , I am using Assembly Binding Log Viewer. I have selected "Log in exception text" and given custom log path. Neither I am getting any log messages and the exception text is consistently giving this message:
WRN: Assembly binding logging is
turned OFF. To enable assembly bind
failure logging, set the registry
value
[HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog]
(DWORD) to 1. Note: There is some
performance penalty associated with
assembly bind failure logging. To
turn this feature off, remove the
registry value
[HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog].
Any ideas why this could be happening ? How to enable Assembly Binding Log viewing?

To turn the logging on use Regedit and updated the registry entry in the error message.
It could be that your program requires a dll that is not included in the package.
Sometimes it just needs an IISRESET to realise that the dll is available in the GAC.
