Unable to read DLL

I tried making my own project to test this out. I downloaded the 64 bit dll from your link and tried putting it in three different places

• The root folder (with the .csproj file)
• The folder with the solution file (One above root folder)
• The folder with the debug dll in it (bin\Debug\netcoreapp1.1)

I am still getting the same error: Is there somewhere else I should be putting the DLL? Thanks!

Edit: Here are the error details:

System.DllNotFoundException occurred
  HResult=0x80131524

• If your OS is 64 bit then this is correct behavior. If you want to test with 32 bit library you must run it in 32 bit environment.

• In thread safe console did you get expected PDF at the end?

• This is right route to get PDF: http://localhost:5000/api/convert . Tested it again at my end without problems.

• I added Kestrel server profile to launchSettings.json:

    "Kestrel": {
      "commandName": "Project",
      "launchUrl": "pdf",
      "environmentVariables": {
        "ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT": "Development"
      },
      "applicationUrl": "http://localhost:5000"
    }

Select Kestrel profile in VS: In browser go to route http://localhost:5000/pdf. Now you should get expected result. The reason that I added Kestrel profile is because this library is not compatible with IIS. Problem with IIS is how IIS manage app pools. To resolve that issue Remoting tools should be used but they are not supported in .NET Core.

You see changes that i made to your project here.

Thanks for the quick response! It’s working on my machine as well with Kestrel.
