I’ve tried different settings in the highlighted Startup tag to no avail.

Thanks.

Some additional information:

When I click the generate button on the Services form, the following file is created: “C:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics AX\50\AifWebServices\Bin\microsoft.dynamics.integrationframework.service.dll”

I used the following PowerShell commands and the result was V4.0.30319

$path = “C:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics AX\50\AifWebServices\Bin\microsoft.dynamics.integrationframework.service.dll”
[Reflection.Assembly]::ReflectionOnlyLoadFrom($path).ImageRuntimeVersion

If I run the same PowerShell commands on my production server, I get 2.0.50727.

This proves the error message in my DEV environment that the the assembly is built by a newer runtime.

So, the question becomes – how do I force the 2.0.50727 runtime when I’m generating the DLL?

Any thoughts?

Thanks

We found a solution to this issue

The AOS server’s ax32Serv.exe.config file located in “C:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics AX\50\Server<yourInstance>\Bin” had the following entry

Temporarily commenting this out and generating the service produced the DLL with 2.0.50727 CLR version.
