Question

I am trying to use AutoMapper with web application running on IIS 7. The intended use it so map domain types defined in an external dll to view models defined in the IIS application. This works fine except when the external dll is singed. Then I get the following error:

AutoMapper.AutoMapperMappingException was unhandled by user code
  Message="Trying to map TestLibrary.Source to WebApplication1.Destination.

Steps to Reproduce the problem:

1) Create a new web application using Visual Studio 2008 on a machine with IIS 7 installed. (We are using windows 7).

2) Download the AutoMapper.dll from http://www.codeplex.com/AutoMapper. (We are using version 0.4.x.x) and add a reference to this Dll to your web application.

3) Place the following code in the code behind for the default page:

using System;
using AutoMapper;
using TestLibrary;

namespace WebApplication1
{
    public partial class _Default : System.Web.UI.Page
    {
        protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            Mapper.CreateMap<Source, Destination>();
            Mapper.AssertConfigurationIsValid();

            var source = new Source {Value = "Automapper works!" };
            var destination = Mapper.Map<Source, Destination>(source);

            Response.Clear();
            Response.ContentType="text/plain";
            Response.Write(destination.Value);
            Response.End();
        }
    }

    public class Destination
    {
        public object Value { get; set; }
    }

4) Create a new Class Library named "TestLibrary" and rename the Class1.cs file to Source.cs and put the following code it in:

namespace TestLibrary
{
    public class Source
    {
        public object Value { get; set; }
    }
}

5) Add a reference to this library to your web application.

6) Run the solution and you should see the "Automapper works!" output.

7) To make it fail, you must do two things.
i) Configure the website to run under IIS instead of the Visual Studio development server. ii) Sign the TestLibrary assembly. After that, running the solution should produce the error reported above.

Does anyone have any idea how to get around this? We have checked and the application is running with full trust accourding the the IIS management console.

Answer 1

So this exception comes from creating a lambda expression programmatically and then compiling it. Can you try doing the same thing, just in the Default.aspx.cs? One way to do this would be to create a lambda expression in code:

Expression> expr = () => 5;

then do:

var func = expr.Compile();

it s a line just like that that s failing for you.

If this works, I d then next put this code in that signed assembly, and access it from the web application.
