Again c# Unable to load DLL (mapscript)

[Tamas Szekeres]

Hi,

If you are using the buildkit

nmake -f makefile.vc install

will copy the binaries into the "bin" directory.

You should make available the dll-s from this directory and
mapscript.dll should also available from your application. I recomment
to place them into your app's directory since windows will try this
path first.
You might want to use sysinternal's filemon or a similar tool to
detect whether all of the dll-s were found.

If it does not help send your test project and let's look for the
problem together.

Best Regards,

Tamas Szekeres
