After moving some code into my testing environment, I received the following error:
Message: The User Control ESSActivityPicker.ascx has caused a compilation error. To view details about this error, enable debugging in the web.config file or view the Windows event logs.
Source: System.Web
Exception details:
c:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\TEMPLATE\LAYOUTS\ep\ESSActivityPicker.ascx.cs(33): error CS0234: The type or namespace name 'EPGlobalParameters' does not exist in the namespace 'Microsoft.Dynamics.Portal.Application.Proxy' (are you missing an assembly reference?)

Now, the reason for moving code was to fix this control and fix the error listed above. When I opened the control up on VS 2010, line 33 is commented out and should not be in error. When I compiled in VS, it compiled just fine.
After searching for a while I finally gave up and went on my EP server. I browsed out to the 'ep' folder listed in the error and checked the file. Sure enough, my changes to code were NOT reflected in this file.
I simply edited the file, commented out the code, and then tried EP again. It worked! No issue at all any more.
