DLLwon't register in W7Pro running on VirtualBox

BokehBokeh Member Posts: 1,636 ■■■■■■■□□□
Just spent the good part of 2.5 hours trying to help the boss install a program on his MacBook Air, running Virtual Box and Win7Pro. All the DLL's will register except for xceedcry.dll. Anyone ever run across a reason why 99% of the files will register but one wont? Is there something unique to VB that will not allow it? It gives a 0x8002009 error code.

We spent time with the software developers on the phone, and they have no clue. They have never tried to install in a VB environment on a Mac.

    Can you boot the Win7 OS into safe mode and try to install the program. I'm thinking there might be a conflict with another process/application. I've had to install software in safe mode before and/or uninstall applications.

    Sounds like a permissions issue, trying using process monitor to track down what registry key it isn't getting rights to.

    Got it to work. Seems that particular file does not like the whole start>run> etc that all the other DLLs worked just fine. Actually went from the command prompt and it took it right away.
