Answered Problems with use of VSeWSS 1.3 in Visual Studio 2008

    I've downloaded the VSeWSS 1.3 and installed on windows server 2003 running visual studio 2008 (team suite).
    The webservice runs in a separate application pool with identity "administrator" (the local one), so putting the "administrator" in the local administrators group isn't needed.
    On starting any moss relevant actions in the visual studio, i still get the error message "Error: Assembly {0} not found."

    Any ideas how to fix that?

    The account that the web service runs as needs to be in the local administrator group as you have. It also needs to have SharePoint Farm Administrator rights.

    So I'm not 100% sure of this but I think you just need to add your local administrator account to the WSS_RESTRICTED_WPG group.

    This is why it's easier to add the central admin account to the local administrators group.
