License Not Found - Embedded Resource in .Net Web Application

Aspose.Email Product Family
1

I'm using Aspose Email in a .Net web application. I've added the Aspose.Email.lic file to the root of my web app project as an embedded resource. I'm calling SetLicense from global.asa Application_OnStart event handler. Everything works fine when run locally but not when the web app is deployed to our production server. The exception is show below. Where is the appropriate place to call SetLicence in these circumstances and/or why isn't it working?

Hi Bernie,


Thank you for writing to Aspose support team.

Could you please try not passing complete path to the SetLicense method? i.e. license.SetLicense(“Email.lic”) should work in this case. Please try it at your end and let us know your feedback.

Changing the name of the file worked. Perhaps your sample code should be changed.
