System.BadImageFormatException “invalid format” when trying to install service with installutil.exe

When I install my Windows Service App, I get the following exception:

Error 1001. exception occurred while initializing the installation : System.BadImageFormatException: could not load file or assembly .....file.exe or one of its dependencies. An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format.

Was it helpful?

Solution

This means that one of your assemblies is compiled for 64-bit mode and tries to load a 32-bit one, or vise versa.
