That assembly does not allow partially trusted callers. InitializeComponent()

Scenario: I am in the process of refactoring one of our applications to use Nhibernate and came across this issue a couple weeks back. The issue was originally with Nhibernate and Castle and to solve this they were both recompiled with the [assembly: AllowPartiallyTrustedCallers]. However after making some changes to the UI and codebase this error has reappeared again. Also worth noting is that I control the loading my user controls programmatically from Form_Main.

Problem: Whenever the user controls are generated I receive the error below. If I comment out the loading then the program will run. When I debug it ends at the InitializeComponent() function which is auto-generated. Note that I can't step into that function.

Anyone have any ideas on the subject? I have already added [assembly: AllowPartiallyTrustedCallers] to the assembly. Is there any way to find out which reference(?) is causing this error? Or any way to step through InitializeComponent()?

NOTE: I have every permission included and the project is set to partial trust.

Anyways any help is greatly appreciated.

OK, if I were to troubleshoot this issue, I would approach it as below:

1) If I am using .NET 4.0 make sure this is already handled.

2) Use ILDASM or reflector to open all DLLs in question on the bin folder to make sure AllowPartiallyTrustedCallersAttribute is set on them.

3) Use AppDomain.CurrentDomain.GetAssemblies() at the time of error (using immediate window) to see which assembly is loaded from where. This I think could be your problem as I have seen too often that old or rogue versions of assemblies are loaded from GAC or various bin folders

I think using these 3 steps you will be able to find your problem.

For all future readers who may have missed the comments under Aliostad's answer.

Basically what worked for me was taking Aliostad's advice and recompiling all the references I could with AllowPartiallyTrustedCallersAttribute. To verify the assemblies that loaded I followed Step 2 of Aliostad's advice. Once I had made sure all the required dll's had that attribute I included that attribute into my project and then set my project to full trust(not partial trust).

Note: I am using Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook to send emails and it requires full trust but still allows the other dll's to run in partial trust.

Hope this help future users. Any questions just comment below.

I got this error when running a dll from a network location. The dll was an extension for ESRI ArcGIS using arcobjects running in ArcGIS 10.1. Solution don't open project from network location.
