Hi,

I've recently moved our sharepoint site and databases (using Microsoft Internal Database) to another standalone server. I did a catastrophic backup and then restored it on the destination server successfully via the central Administration page. I have also copied our custom web part library dll to 'c:\windows\assembly' directory and 'C:\Inetpub\ directory. I also copied over the old web.config file to 'C:\Inetpub\ However, I still seem to be missing something as I get the error below while loading the site. I haven't been able to find a solution so hoping someone has seen it before here.

Has anyone seen this happen before? Any advice/help would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks.
Mehds
