Unable to load DLL 'libcurl.dll': The specified module could not be found

Question

I am using LibCurlNet on my asp.net project. I post some fields to server with it. I downloaded library and added it to my project as reference. At first I could run my project. But now when I run project, I have an exception:

{System.DllNotFoundException: Unable to load DLL 'libcurl.dll': The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E)
at SeasideResearch.LibCurlNet.External.curl_global_init(Int32 flags) at SeasideResearch.LibCurlNet.Curl.GlobalInit(Int32 flags) in c:\\Users\\Administrator\\Documents\\Visual Studio 2008\\WebSites\\WebProjectUpload\\App_Code\\Curl.cs:line 47 at Post.Main(String[] args) in c:\\Users\\Administrator\\Documents\\Visual Studio 2008\\WebSites\\WebProjectUpload\\App_Code\\Post.cs:line 21}

and I have the exception at line "Curl.GlobalInit((int)CURLinitFlag.CURL_GLOBAL_ALL);"

When I try to add reference to my project, in bin folder I found three .dll file but I just add the "LibCurlNet.dll". Can anyone help me?

Answer 1

Can you try placing the dll in your bin folder and adding the reference from there? Alternatively you can place your assembly in the GAC.
