Foxs, I have faced a trouble while migrate the site from one server to another. I have faced this problem. This problem is not migrate problem.

I received an error "Could not load file or assembly 'MySql.Data, Version=1.0.7.30072, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=c5687fc88969c44d' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)"

This error belongs to higher version of  MySql.Data.dll. I dont have same version dll, So that am used higher version and use binding redirect option in web confiq file to resolve this problem.

Just i redirect old version to new version as like below.(under configuration)

<runtime>

    <assemblyBinding xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1">

      <dependentAssembly>

        <assemblyIdentity name="MySql.Data" publicKeyToken="c5687fc88969c44d"/>

        <bindingRedirect oldVersion="1.0.7.30072" newVersion="5.0.8.1"/>

      </dependentAssembly>

    </assemblyBinding>

  </runtime>

This resolved my problem.
