My SharePoint....: Command to add DLL into GAC in window server 2008

Saturday, 23 March 2013

Typically we drag and drop a dll While adding it to GAC. It works for window 2000 and 2003 but in window 2008 it shows an error "Access is Denied".

So to add a dll into GAC we need to use the gacutil command in window 2008.

Step -1

Open the command prompt with 'Run as Administrator'.

Step - 2

set the path for the gacutil command

>cd C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.1\Bin

Step -3

Run the gacutil command

C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.1\Bin>gacutil.exe -if "path of the dll"
