[RESOLVED] "Runtime error '430' class does not support Automation or does not support expected..

[anatasia]

Dear friends,


I am enhancing my company current system in VB. I tried to install the new system in client pc for testing. after succesful installation, when I tried to start to run one of the module after log in, they showed an error message as follows:

"Runtime error '430' class does not support Automation or does not support expected interface"

I found certain solution from website, they suggested to un-register the dll and re-register. between, i never register any dll or exe through regsvr32. For this case, is the dll still is the cause for the error?

If anyone can help me, I am very thankful for that.

[westconn1]

what program are you trying to automate?
what is your code

[randem]

How did yo install your app that it did not register your dlls correctly. What did you use to package your app.

[anatasia]

I use Package and deployment Wizard to package my app

[randem]

You are probably missing some dependencies. Did this app ever work?

You might want to try a different installer to see if you come up with the same errors.

[anatasia]

Yes, i found to lost some preferences, but after i add it, all the command button lost in my project. the error message in the log file as:
Line 57: Class FlatButton.XFlatButton of control cmdSearch was not a loaded control class.

I noticed the 'XFlatbutton' which i used for my command button did not selected in the project component and also it does not allowed me to add in. The message prompted me:
'Name conflicts with existing module, project, or object library' when i select the component.

[randem]

Several reasons may exist.

1 - Your VBP file has an invalid folder pointer to the component or reference.
2 - CLSID's are incorrect in your VBP file (Since it was moved from a different machine).

If you want I could look at your whole project but you would have to zip everything and FTP it to me. I can setup an account for you to use on one of our servers. Let me know.

[ganeshmoorthy]

try uninstall and reinstall the flatbutton control might help you...

[anatasia]

i tried to uninstall and reinstall the Flatbutton component. The is no error occur when i debugging. I packaged the project by 'Package and deployment wizard' and install the system into client pc. When i run the system on client's pc, the message prompted me as:

"Runtime error '430' class does not support Automation or does not support expected interface"

seems that the previous problem never been solved and appear again.

[randem]

You may not have all of the dependencies needed. PDW will not find all of them.

[anatasia]

ok, i will double check again. Thanks..

[randem]

I checked your PDW installation and you are missing 90% of the files your app needs to run. It will NEVER install correctly that way. Here is something I created and a lot of these files were not on my computer, but you should see from my list and your list in PDW there is an amazing differenct in the files that are supposed to be included. You never included your database or your rpt files in the PDW setup amonst other things.

re-checked the the preferences... same as my backup file. can't find any problem. but one things very weird is. last time when i do compilation, it'll automatically detect the location path, but now a day, it run out to other location path. this situation was not occur in my another system.

[anatasia]

do i need to add those in the list that u provided while i do PDW? if so, i will try it then..thanks..

[randem]

re-checked the the preferences...

Do you really mean References? And yes you do need to add all those files into your setup and possibly more since I did not have all of your ocx/dll's there may be more dependencies.

Zip and upload the missing ocx/dll's and I will check again...

[anatasia]

i add the references and components following by the list that u provided when i packaging. but the system cannot be run at all. I've re-upload the latest file to the ftp site. It was so confusing.

[randem]

It is very confusing.

Lots of thing could be wrong:

1 - You may not have included all the files you need.
2 - You may not have registered the ones that need to be.
3 - The files may be in the wrong folders.
4 - The locations for some files may be hardcoded in the app.

Where are the destination of the files supposed to be. I.E. the database, the rpt files etc...

[randem]

Also you should just upload the missing files since I have the other already. It would speed up the uploads/downloads.

[RobDog888]

I have experienced this error before. It was due to having a compiled exe with MDAC of one version packaged in the setup file but I did an update to the exe and compiled it on a different system with a different MDAC version. When I replaced the exe on the taaget system I got that exact message when the app was run.

The unexpected interface could be from a reference in your exe that is different from your package contained dependancy file(s).

[randem]

anatasia,

You still did not include the missing ocx's. What did you add to make the file bigger by 18 MB.

[randem]

OK, I see what you did you added files to the PDW cab file. That is not going to help me help you. I need the missing ocx file. I just wasted time downloading 78MB of files I already had.

Just upload the missing OCX/dll files that are in my list. You also have report dll's that is extremely large. Did you make sure you are not saving the data in the rpts. You must uncheck Save Report Data in CR.

[randem]

Here is the list of files that I need:

9/21/2006 12:23:18 AM - Missing ticon3d6.ocx
9/21/2006 12:23:18 AM - Missing tinumb6.ocx

[anatasia]

The missing dll/ocx files have been uploaded to ftp site. I appologized for the incovenience make. Im fresh to programming, thanks for teaching me so much.

[randem]

Ok, now there are two more files missing. I will need these also.

9/21/2006 4:29:54 PM - Missing IEUI.dll
9/21/2006 4:29:54 PM - Missing iertutil.dll

[randem]

You also do something very strange. You have two files

prjUKirin
prjUKirin.dll

You reference then prjUKirin file (it is much smaller and is probably not a dll) instead of the prjUKirin.dll file. This must be some mistake. You should re-check what name you are compiling your dll's too. This happens with all your projects. This will be a show stopper.

[anatasia]

the prjUkirin is incorrect, my project should be prjUkirin.dll.. but i added it when i compiling my system. I tried once to remove it, but it does not have any different among remove or remain. Thus i just ignore it.

[randem]

It does make a differenct the dll's are never included in your project but the filename without the dll extention is. It is totally incorrect and there should be no way your project should work like this.

[randem]

BTW: Where are those missing files????

[anatasia]

The only missing dependencies file is prjCUtil.dll while i packaging my project by using PDW.

[randem]

No, the ones I asked for and you were supposed to supply. it seems that this is more important to me than to you...

[anatasia]

I was succeed to implement my system on user's pc. I also not very clear about how i solved the problems, i just tried and error so many times and end up the system could be implement. Randem, Thanks you very much for your kindly supports and helps.

this is

and the problem is? i'm still wondering...

nb: sorry for my english

[Tgirgenti]

Cayoga,

If you are still following this thread, I have experienced the same issue.

Compiling a VB 6.0 program in Windows 7 Ultimate runs fine in Windows 7.

When trying to run it in the Windows XP Pro machine, it gives that error.

I am trying to find out what the problem is and if I find it, I will post it here.

Tony

[RobDog888]

If you guys are using Windows 7 SP-1 thern there is a break in compatibility with MDAC
http://blogs.technet.com/b/asiasupp/...ce-pack-1.aspx

Is this your scenario?

[Tgirgenti]

Thanks RobDog.

I am totally overwhelmed by all this not to mention totally confused.

I will continue to make sure i recompile my VB 6.0 programs on my old XP computer. I only have a handful of programs.

Will that resolve the issue?

Thanks,
Tony

[Black Zero]

Got to this thread from Google.

Request a package of KB983246 and install it on your customers' machines. Re-compiled application should work after the package is installed

How? How do I ask Microsoft to provide that package to me?

[madnessman]

man.. compile ur project in the older version of OS.. when u compile ur project in the latest version then run or install it in the lower version of OS, the error will occur, which means incompatibility issues

[Tgirgenti]

madnessman,

I'm not sure of what your point is.

Thanks,
Tony
