有些时候我们写的asp.net应用程序是运行在虚拟主机上。有一些虚拟主机可能是由于安全的考虑，对asp.net做了权限设置，会导致我们的应用程序无法正常运行。
问题现象：
由于某种原因，asp.net不能加载某些dll文件，出现如下错误提示： Server Error in '/' Application.

问题分析：
根据我的观察，asp.net应用程序直接生成的dll可以正常加载，由asp.net直接调用的外部dll也可以正常加载，但是仅被外部dll引用的其他外部dll不能加载。我的猜想是：由于权限是不完全的，asp.net应用本身生成的dll和直接引用的dll可以通过权限的继承获得权限，而仅被外部dll引用的其他外部dll因为权限的限制不能继承权限，因此出现了权限不足的问题。
问题解决：
通过在我电脑的试验，推测虚拟主机上修改了根web.config（在我电脑上其位置为C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\CONFIG）的设置.
默认web.config的权限设置节如下：
<location allowOverride="true">
<system.web>
<securityPolicy>
<trustLevel name="Full" policyFile="internal" />
<trustLevel name="High" policyFile="web_hightrust.config" />
<trustLevel name="Medium" policyFile="web_mediumtrust.config" />
<trustLevel name="Low" policyFile="web_lowtrust.config" />
<trustLevel name="Minimal" policyFile="web_minimaltrust.config" />
</securityPolicy>
<trust level="Full" originUrl="" />
</system.web>
</location>
推测虚拟主机上修改之后的设置：
<location allowOverride="false">
<system.web>
<securityPolicy>
<trustLevel name="Full" policyFile="internal" />
<trustLevel name="High" policyFile="web_hightrust.config" />
<trustLevel name="Medium" policyFile="web_mediumtrust.config" />
<trustLevel name="Low" policyFile="web_lowtrust.config" />
<trustLevel name="Minimal" policyFile="web_minimaltrust.config" />
</securityPolicy>
<trust level="High" originUrl="" />
</system.web>
</location>
他首先设置了allowOverride为false，这就阻止了在用户web.config中重新定义权限的能力。然后，他定义trust level为High，而不是默认的Full。经我测试，只要trust level不为Full，仅被外部dll引用的其他外部dll就不能被加载。 因此，我建议技术支持将allowOverride节设置为true。这样我就可以在web.config中重新指定权限了。
例：<trust level="Full" originUrl="" />
最近已经不研究aps.net了，因此也没有认真去查找深层的原因，或许我的认识还有误。希望那位高手可以道出深层的原因，或指正我的错误。
