An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007000B) (System.BadImageFormatException)

Question

I'm trying to deploy our .NET web application using Tridion Delivery API to a local dev server. The machine is x64 and has a proper cd_licenses.xml file and the cd_*_config.xmls are all pointing to its proper location.

We have installed the JDK 1.6_45 and placed the dependency DLLs in the app's bin as per this post: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13918310/unable-to-load-dll-xmogrt-from-tridion-metadata-query

However, we still get the following error:

An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007000B)

Server Error in '/' Application.

An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007000B)

We have checked the default Java version installed by running java -version. It shows the following:

java version "1.6.0_45"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_45-b06)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.45-b01, mixed mode)

We've also verified that the CPU on the machine is x86_64 compatible (AMD Opteron 2374 HE). However, we still this error. Any suggestions?

Answer 1

Verify that you have xmogrt.dll in the bin, is the right version for your CPU (x64) and is not corrupt (perhaps a bad copy/paste from one VM to another?). The proper version should have the size: 1.59 MB (1,668,608 bytes).
