Can't load custom httphandler over multiple projects

Question

in my solution i have a couple of projects.

At my Allgemein.dll (General.dll) i have a custom httphandler which looks for pdf's and does something with it.

At every project in my solution i include the Allgemein.dll.

Now if i'm logged out of my application and i call a pdf, my httphandler works great. But if i'm now login to my application and call a pdf, i got the following error: "The type "Allgemein.Handlers.FileProtectionHandler" in the assembly "Allgemein" could not be loaded."

What i'm doing wrong?

My web.config

<httpHandlers>
      <add path="*.pdf" verb="*" validate="true" type="Allgemein.Handlers.FileProtectionHandler, Allgemein" />
</httpHandlers>

<handlers>
      <add name="PDF" path="*.pdf" verb="*" type="Allgemein.Handlers.FileProtectionHandler, Allgemein" resourceType="Unspecified" />
</handlers>

My FileProtectionHandler.vb

            Dim res As String = Nothing
            Dim fileinfo As FileInfo = New FileInfo(filename)

            If fileinfo.Exists Then

                Select Case fileinfo.Extension.Remove(0, 1).ToLower()
                    Case "pdf"

Answer 1

After a joined effort with the OP it has been concluded that the MIR.Web.Allgemein is the root namespace.

In this case, the actual type name would be MIR.Web.Allgemein.Allgemein.Handlers.FileProtectionHandler which is the root namespace [dot] the actual namespace from code [dot] class name.
