My install program(Installshield and PD Wizard) works fine on machines which have visual studio installed on them but gives a Dr Watson error on executing the application on machines which do not have V.Studio installed.
Can anyone please let me know how to get around this problem? Specifically which are the dlls I should look for?
In my project references, I have added Scripting Runtime and ADO 2.0 library.
Thanks.
MSVBVM60.DLL is the Runtime DLL for VB6. You also must add whatever controls you used in your Project. The VB Setup Wizard should add all of this for you.
Even after adding the run time dll for 6.0 I get the same error. The error is:
An application error has occured and a log is generated.
Access violation(oxc0..5) address 0x77f6750b
I could not find any information on this in MSDN applicable to my case.
The program runs fine on machines with visual studio installed.
This is typically a file access problem. (Very common in NT environments where the user doesn't have permission to a file).
I'd suggest getting FILEMON from http://www.sysinternals.com (it's freeware) and running it while you try to install your program. It should tell you pretty quickly if you are missing a particular file, or missing a permission needed to install/read a file.
I included a mdb in the setup files. Is there any other dll that needs to be referenced because of the access database?
You may need to include mdac_typ.exe, and DCOM95/DCOM98 if you are using ADO and Access97.
