security transparent method exception issue

[Noodleloaf]

I have a .NET 4.8 project that runs fine on my dev machine but when deployed hits the following exception. Any guidance on what can be causing and how to resolve is appreciated. It is time-sensitive to resolve. Thanks.

Server Error in '/' Application.
Attempt by security transparent method 'Devart.Data.MySql.Entity.t.a()' to access security critical method 'Devart.Data.MySql.MySqlCommand..ctor()' failed.

Assembly 'Devart.Data.MySql.Entity.EF5, Version=8.21.2066.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=09af7300eec23701' is marked with the AllowPartiallyTrustedCallersAttribute, and uses the level 2 security transparency model. Level 2 transparency causes all methods in AllowPartiallyTrustedCallers assemblies to become security transparent by default, which may be the cause of this exception.

dotConnect for MySQL v8.21.2066 and higher versions include the following improvements:

• The new \Entity\EF5\net47\Devart.Data.MySql.Entity.EF5.dll assembly compiled with .NET Framework 4.7 is added
• The behavior is changed: Devart.Data.MySql.Entity.EF5.dll compiled with .NET Framework 4.7 is used now in EF5 models

With v8.21.2066, you should add the following references to your project and use them during deployment:
* C:\Program Files (x86)\Devart\dotConnect\MySQL\NET4\Devart.Data.dll
* C:\Program Files (x86)\Devart\dotConnect\MySQL\NET4\Devart.Data.MySql.dll
* C:\Program Files (x86)\Devart\dotConnect\MySQL\Entity\EF5\net47\Devart.Data.MySql.Entity.EF5.dll
