Entity Framework on GoDaddy
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.
