I am able to run the server and have a game use it on my local machine (Win 7), but when I take the same directory where the server assemblies are and put them on a Windows 2008 server, it fails.

Here is the complete log:

I am running 2.0.9.1 version of the server because when I run the latest, it says that my license has expired. I've copied the entire contents that is required to run the server. I know this error has been posted before, but I haven't been able to find a post that has a solution for me.

    If you need to run 2.x then you don't have a photon 3 license.
    Best contact the support on that matter as I believe that all 2.x licenses are being upgraded for free.

    as for your problem. as it points out you try to use an app built against a newer version of photon in an old one. that will not work.

    move the source folder over and update the references where needed and rebuild it and it will work (assuming the application was photon 2.0.x to begin with)

    I am not building anything, I am copying the sever and the assemblies from one server onto my machines, testing it successfully, and then putting them on a different server, that is not able to run it.

    Free licenses are available from http://exitgames.com/download for you to try.

    This has nothing to do with licenses at all. :)

    Please install .NET Framework 3.5, incl. SP1, and / or .NET Framework 4 on your server machine.

    Yeah I didn't think so, so I gave up on this post, wish I would have seen your reply sooner. I did in fact install .net 4.0 and now it works, so I wanted to come back here and let everyone know that fixed it for me.

    Note to all,
    By default if you are using Win server 2008 sp1 image on Azure, the .net 3.5.1 install will not be sufficient, you will need to download and install .net 4.0 as well.
