Vista registration problem - ****SORTED!

Typical. Spend an hour fiddling about and find solution 5s after posting! Did not notice OnlyBelowVersion in latest instructions.
*********************************************


An exe prepared using Inno Setup on XP installs fine on Vista. If I actually create the exe by compiling the unchanged script on Vista is does not. Error is:

c:\windows\system32\stdole2.tlb
Unable to access the type library:registerTypeLib failed. Error accessing the OLE registry.

The line is as per the Inno Setup instructions for VB DLLs which I note somebody is using ok in a previous post.

Source: "VBFiles\stdole2.tlb"; DestDir: "{sys}"; Flags: restartreplace uninsneveruninstall sharedfile regtypelib

The program also needs to install on win98 so I can't remove the line. However, since the same or later version already exists on Vista the line should not actually be doing anything anyway.

Thanks for any ideas

OnlyBelowVersion has been in Inno Setup for years...

Maybe but was only added in VB file install instructions for Vista a few months back.

And it would not work before you read the instructions?

I get same error and another

useing for my .exe VB 6 pro as front end Access 2000 as backend database

Inno setup compiler Ver 5.1.9

When customer is installing my setup on Win XP Pro or Home all is fine.

When customer is installing my setup on Vista errors came up.

C:\Windows\system32\oleaut32.dll
unable to register the DLL/OCX: dllRegisterServer failed; code 0x80070005

C:\Windows\system32\stdole2.tlb
unable to register the type library:RegisterTypeLib failed; code 0x8002801C
error accessing the OLE registry

Click retry to try again, ignore to proceed anyway (not reccomended), or
abort to cancel installation.

Any help appreciated
Thanks

Did you not find that changing script as per latest instructions for VB files on Inno website sorted your problem? Mistake I made was just glancing at it and not noticing the changes since I first created the script a couple of years ago, pre-Vista. See the change notes at bottom of that page. With addition of the OnlyBelowVersion 0,6 flag (Vista is version 6) the offending lines should be completely ignored in Vista. Vista has those files already.
