Solution 2

Means exactly what it says: the control needs to be inside a form tag, and have the attribute runat=server

<form>
   ...
   <yourcontrol runat=server />
   ...
</form>

That's the error message - and it gives us a good idea what the problem is - now we need to see the fragment of your source that generated the message!
