I get the following errors (from one machine only) when installing a VB6 App using the P&D wizard:


error 1: C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\STDOLE2.TLB
Unable to register the type library: LoadTypeLib failed; code 0x80029c4A.
Error loading type library/DLL

i choose ignore and get: error 2:
C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\msvbm60.dll
Unable to register the DLL/OCX: DllRegisterServer failed; code 0x80029c4a
Error loading type library/DLL

i choose igonore and get a third error for oleau32.dll too

I am not sure where to go from here. I would appreciate any insight into what may be the problem.

Thanks
Rich

Could it be a permissions issue on the Winnt folder? Is this NT 4 or 2000?

Nope, bothe the WINNT and system32 folders are clear of restrictions.

I tried installing the run-time files using a MS exe and got this error:

Error registering the OCX C:\WINNT\system32\OLEAT32.DLL

perhaps a clue????

Rich, I suggest you download and try to run this file on the trouble machine

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=7b9ba261-7a9c-43e7-9117-f673077ffb3c&displaylang=en%20

it is the VB6 SP6 runtime file redistributable file, which installs the core runtime files used by VB6...

the PDW does this as well.. and the files you are having trouble with are core VB runtime files...

so you may either see that this file works.. or fails in a similar area but maybe gives more detailed info on the error if it happens..

also just an FYI, that Windows 2000 includes the VB runtimes already (although not the latest build of them)
