FileNotFoundException although file exists

My program's throwing a FileNotFoundException, although the file is definitely there.

I'm currently working on an application that used plugins. In the plugin directory, there is a file "plugins.include", where one can list locations of dlls to be included.

When I load the DLLs directly from the folder, everything works fine. However, if I add the path

/Users/simoncahill/Projects/MailArchive/TestPlugin/bin/TestPlugin.dll

it can't find the file, although it definitely exists:

File Location

Has anyone else experienced this sort of issue? What can I do to fix this?

Thanks in advance.

EDIT: As pointed out to me, I missed a folder in the path, while copying from the Finder.

Solution

  • There is Debug folder after bin folder:

    /Users/simoncahill/Projects/MailArchive/TestPlugin/bin/Debug/TestPlugin.dll
