VB6 Setup Failure (General questions)

by cvmbor, Wednesday, August 15, 2007, 04:15 (6310 days ago)

Using the VB6 Package and Deployment Wizard generated CAB file, my installion now fails with an Unexpected Setup Error. The progress bar appears to be dealing with wodCertificate.dll or WodFtpDLX.dll at the time of the error. I am installing my application on the same machine I have installed the WOD product but this installation has worked in the past. My problems seems to have started when I installed 2.7.4.

Any suggestions on how I can find out what is happening?

Thanks

Craig,

I don't think it's related to 2.7.4 since there are no new dependencies inside.

I would suggest you try manually copying those DLLs to destination computer and then running regsvr32 on them. If it fails, download 'dependency walker' and see what's missing.

I belive that's the fastest way.

So ran the Dependency Walker and found it was missing dwmapi.dll. Apparently XP and IE7 don't get along as far as this dll goes. Vista has the dll but not XP. So no idea why this showed up all of a sudden but had my choice of going back to IE6 or downloading the DLL which I did, rebuilt the CAB. Problem fixed I guess.

Thanks
