help installing Text Link Ads in ASP.net coded site - you get $10

I'll pay you $10 by Paypal if you successfully help me install Text Link Ads on my ASP.net coded site (malluspace.com). I posted over in the programming section but no one seems interested in helping for free.

I'm trying to install ads from Text Link Ads on my site's homepage (malluspace.com) and on one interior page. My site is coded in ASP.net. I've attached screenshots of the install instructions from Text Link Ads as well as the error I get on my site when I install their code.

I've followed the instructions as best as I know how. I created the 'Controls' directory and inserted the 2 files they provided. I uploaded the xml file they specified and had my host give it write access.

I can provide the 2 files they provide (*.ascx and *.ascx.cs)

Can anyone figure it out?

 

It looks like you have the code wrong in the file. You have .cs on the end of the CodeFile path.

 

The files they provide each have the same filename but one has a .ascx suffix and the other a .ascx.cs suffix. They go in the same folder ('Controls') according to their install instructions. They can't both be .ascx as they have the same filename.

below is the code from the .ascx file

<%@ Control Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeFile="textLinkAds.ascx.cs" Inherits="textLinkAds" %>
<asp:Literal runat="server" ID="litTextLinkAds" Visible="true" />

I can do this, PM me!

 

You know what the problem is with my asp.net site and the text link ads install problem?

 

qprojects, waiting on your reply

 

@Neutron I'm sorry,I couldnt come for 3 days, PM me the 2 files ASAP!

 

I'm working on getting this site transferred to one of my hosts with cpanel so that I can give access more easily to the site.

Right now it's on a really messed up host which doesn't allow me to give exclusive access to only the site affected.
