Not sure why Signer.exe fails, but are you sure you can run corflags.exe 
and ildasm.exe from the command prompt?

Could you examine if the "InnerException" holds more info:
http://dotnetperls.com/typeinitializationexception

The fact that the error message mentions "MapGuideApiPINVOKE" makes me 
think that it has loaded
the MapGuideDotNetApi.dll just fine, but something else is breaking.
Since "MapGuideApiPINVOKE" is used to invoke the binaries, I assumed 
they were of the wrong type.
