asp.net link button doesn't work in web server

Question

I have a simple link button in my aspx page. everything works perfect, but once i upload my web forms to web server I have the following error for link button

CS1061: 'ASP.ourproducts_aspx' does not contain a definition for 'btnShowBrandsDiv_Click' and no extension method 'btnShowBrandsDiv_Click' accepting a first argument of type 'ASP.ourproducts_aspx' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

i have a definition for my button in both .CS and .designer pages, or it won't work in my local machine this is my button

<asp:LinkButton runat="server" ID="btnShowBrandsDiv" OnClick="btnShowBrandsDiv_Click">Show</asp:LinkButton>

it maybe a very simple thing but i couldn't figure it out.
thank you

It looks like a deployment issue. How are you uploading your website to server? — Ehsan

maybe you are missing a dll file? Also is this a "website" or a "web application" project? — Carlos487

it's a web application. @Ehsan it's not me who uploads the site, what is the deployment issue could i have? thanks all — Sam

Are you publishing the website before deploying? or just copying all the files to server with code files? — Ehsan

The server doesn't have an updated version of your DLL. Copy up your bin directory to your server and .NET will be able to find the definition.
