azure developement fabric dll hell

Hello I am trying to package and start up azure developement fabric on a windows 2008 server, I am so close yet still far. The steps I take are 1) run cspack.exe command /copyOnly to generate the .csx folder 2) run csrun.exe commmand /LaunchBrowser to start up the developement fabric and startup the browser

the error is as follows

System.BadImageFormatException: Could not load file or assembly 'Interop.SSCE' or one of its dependencies. An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format.

this error happens with 2 dlls Interop.SSCE.DLL and SqlLite.dll Ive replaced all references to SqLite dll with a 64bit version and I dont have any references anymore to Interop.SSCE.DLL since I am not using it. Manually deleting these assemblies from the location

"C:\Users\Administrator\Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\MyAzureProject\src\AzureCloudService\ServiceDefinition.csx\roles\MyAzureProject.Web\approot\bin"

solves the issue, but I dont obviously want to manually delete these everytime as I trying to automate a build process. My question is then how is the .csx folder actually generated and will this give me clues as to where these dll's are bring copied from? This is really frustrating as with the exception of those dll errors, I =m able to package the solution and startup the developement fabric with no other problems. Please Help!!

I realize this is old, but I just ran across it while trying to solve the same problem. In my case, the issue was that some of my projects were set to build x86 assemblies, instead of Any CPU. The solution was:

1. Go to Build -> Configuration Manager
2. Make sure "Active solution platform" is set to "Any CPU"
3. Make sure each of the projects also has the "Platform" set to "Any CPU"
4. Rebuild

Go to:

Tools > Options > Projects and Solutions > Web Projects

Check the Use the 64 bit version of IIS Express for web sites and projects. This will ensure that your web project runs in x64 mode and will thus be able to use Service Fabric files.

Hope it helps...
