Is that mean i missing the .dll file ???

Thank you.

The problem is totally unrelated to missing DLL file, instead it should related to same ReportViewer namespace exists in different DLL files at same directory (%Windows%\\assembly). Try following solutions:

1. Check older version of ReportViewer in _bin_deployableAssemblies directory. Delete all files related to it, and use Microsoft.ReportViewer.11.0 references.

2. Check duplicate declarations of Microsoft.ReportViewer.WebForms namespace in web.config file, remove older one if exists.

3. Add qualifyAssembly element in web.config file:

    <qualifyAssembly partialName="Microsoft.ReportViewer.WebForms" fullName="Microsoft.ReportViewer.WebForms,version=11.0.0.0,culture=neutral,publicKeyToken=89845dcd8080cc91" /> 

4. If the problem still persists, remove all references related to Microsoft.ReportViewer.WebForms namespace, clean entire solution (deleting DLL files referenced to older version), add new references with latest version then rebuild the solution file. Also, you may trying remove/uninstall one of conflicted DLL files from assembly directory.

NB: Remember that both versions (10.0 & 11.0) have different PublicKeyToken property value, hence bindingRedirect trick in dependentAssembly node doesn't work.
