We might need some more information to solve this, but there are a few things you could check.

• Is there anything in the Event Log that might help?
• Is the assembly containing your control signed? If so, your Inherits attribute would need to look something like Inherits="EditSkillNew.EditSkill, EditSkill, Version=a.b.c.d, Culture=someculture, PublicKeyToken=xyzabc"
• Are there any configuration differences between your test and production environments?
• Are you deploying to the GAC?
