Can't find microsoft.sqlserver.batchparser.dll

I wrote an asp.net web app which uses SMO against SQL Server 2008 to be able to run some DB scripts. It references these assemblies (in the C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\SDK\Assemblies folder):

Microsoft.SqlServer.ConnectionInfo
Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Sdk.Sfc
Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo

The microsoft.sqlserver.batchparser.dll is not in this folder. Locally (32 bits machine, IIS7) I have no issue.

When I publish the app to my hosting provider (discountasp.net, SQL Server 2008, IIS7, 32bits too), I get this error:

Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.SqlServer.BatchParser, Version=10.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89845dcd8080cc91' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

I searched my local machine and I can't find this assembly. However it works well on this machine.

The "Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Setup Discovery Report" tool reports I have v10.1.2531.0 installed locally.

To get this dll, you will need to install the Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Management Objects (available from here). That particular dll gets installed into the GAC, which is why you probably cannot find it using a search.

As you are using a hosting provider, it would appear that they do not have this installed. Your choices are to get it installed by them (which is probably unlikely), or deploy the dll manually (which may be on dodgy licencing ground).

First you need to enable browsing of GAC folder:

1. go to Registry Editor (RUN > regedit)
2. go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Fusion
3. Right click Fusion > NEW > DWORD
4. Type DisableCacheViewer
5. Double click DisableCacheViewer
6. Set value to 1

then you can find it here
C:\Windows\assembly\GAC_32\Microsoft.SqlServer.BatchParser\10.0.0.0__89845dcd8080cc91
