Entity Framework on GoDaddy

Tags: SW-HW-Tech

Aargh!   Very frustrating.   I tried setting up a site on Godaddy.   The site uses Entity Framework.   Site failed.   Even though they claim .NET 2.0/3.0/3.5 it's missing all the Entity classes.   Even when I copied them to my bin folder it fails since the System.Runtime.Reflection assembly is missing some attributes,   The compilation error tells me that it's the 2.0 compiler.   Maybe that's right, I don't know.   They tell me EF is not supported though which is really strange.   After looking closer I noticed that EF is part of 3.5 SP1 (release last November).   Perhaps though don't do service packs.   I'm not happy.
