When I move the following code from my localhost, where it works perfectly, to our development server, the map does not load into the map control. I see the control on the page but no map. What am I not doing?

Make sure you have the MIME types for the shp files set up:

This was helpful, thank you.
I was trying to debug a project running on my local server, and this made the map part suddenly appear.
However - BEFORE I saw this I tried several times with test projects running in the development server to see what was going on, and kept failing. Is there something that needs to be done to the Visual Studio 2010 development server to make those work as well?
