I am implementing azure service bus functionality into a clients asp.net webforms solution.
a worker role polls the bus periodically for new messages, and a web role is defined for the existing webforms app, which is responsible for adding putting messages on the bus queue.
Whenever i try to run the app locally i get an error due to the Microsoft.ServiceBus assembly being a mismatch from the expected...
System.IO.FileLoadException was unhandled

InnerException:
The webforms app has the serviceBus dll in the bin folder (which is added as an indirect reference, as the service bus code resides in a library project).
The GAC contains no servicebus assemblies, my projects are all referencing v2 of the servicebus dll, and are set to CopyLocal.
This problem conveniently went away when i updated the Azure ServiceBus Nuget package to version 2.1.
