Witchie NL Posted March 13, 2007 Report Posted March 13, 2007 I tried installing DCME on my usb device @ school. BUT when i did, alot of actions i do makes DCME crash.Saving/Save As: 53 File not found. Updating: Run-time error '429': ActiveX component can't creat object.Closing DCME: Run-time error '53': File not found. And the first time it even gave me an error when i clicked options->preferences. Probebly some people with problems have it becouse they dont have administrator rights or they have it installed on a usb device.I duno which of the 2 couses it becouse ive had problems with running applications on a USB device before but i guess its the fact you dont have admin rights.

Drake7707 Posted March 13, 2007 Report Posted March 13, 2007 is your usb device write protected ? is there enough space left for map backups? Are the necessary components, such as MSINET.DLL installed (used when checking for updates). Quote
Witchie NL Posted March 13, 2007 Author Report Posted March 13, 2007 Not write protected. enough space indeed. components installed aswell. Quote
Samapico Posted March 13, 2007 Report Posted March 13, 2007 hmm... Set ctlInet = CreateObject("InetCtls.Inet")seems to not always work, as opposed to a msinet control placed on the form... that's probably what is giving the activeX error...that's in the fileDownloader class... it's only used when retrieving dcmeupdate.txt for now and that 53 file not found error... i have no idea... we'll have to put some more debug information in the save method... we'll have to use you to test it for us Witchie cause i never got the problem... edit:... doing that right now... releasing 3.1.3... it prints more debug lines in the savemap procedure... so try saving again, and if you get the error, copy that part of the log file here Quote
Witchie NL Posted March 13, 2007 Author Report Posted March 13, 2007 Searching for updates...Connected to server.Latest version available: 3.1.3---The following files need an update: - DCMEupdate.exe (Main program version 3.1.3) - 1136KB---Latest updates available in version 3.1.3 : - 'Run-time error '429': ActiveX component can't create object' error shouldn't appear anymore------------------------------- And the rest works just fine now... i think its becouse i have admin right here at home, and not at school. But ima try that tomorrow when im at school again. Quote
Sketter Posted March 13, 2007 Report Posted March 13, 2007 (edited) 3.1.3 works fine. Edited March 13, 2007 by Sketter Quote
Samapico Posted March 13, 2007 Report Posted March 13, 2007 Latest updates available in version 3.1.3 :- 'Run-time error '429': ActiveX component can't create object' error shouldn't appear anymore------------------------------- that wasn't an error message... it was the description of the fix... ô.o I changed it to avoid confusion... (just removed it actually... cause people upgrading from 3.1.0 to 3.1.3 wouldn't understand anyway ) But if you still get that Error 53 File not found error, please post the log again... it should contain a bit more info to give me a hint of where it crashes...And if you can't get it anymore... then... hmm... I don't understand Quote

Samapico Posted March 14, 2007 Report Posted March 14, 2007 if I catch you on msn, I'll send you a version that prints something every !@#$%^&* line... it couldnt be in FileExists...Function FileExists(path As String, Optional fileattribute As VbFileAttribute = vbNormal) As Boolean On Error GoTo errh FileExists = (LCase(Dir$(path, fileattribute)) = LCase(GetFile!@#$%^&*le(path))) Exit Function errh: FileExists = False Exit Function End FunctionIf the error happened there, it would just return false... and the only thing that could return an error is Dir... and I doubt Dir could return a 'file not found' error... that doesnt make any sense hmmAccording to MS, that error is given when VB fails to load a DLL... (Which DLL would it be searching for???) ... so... maybe your school account is restricted so it cant load dlls anywhere or something... Try to put all the dlls in the 'required files' thread in your DCME folder... If that doesn't work... I dunno Edit:added comct332.ocx and comdlg32.ocx to that thread Quote
Witchie NL Posted March 15, 2007 Author Report Posted March 15, 2007 When i try to save on the protected C: drive you get this: I dont seem to have a problem now anymore. maybe its depending on the computer aswell.. (diffrent classroom then the classroom i had the problem in) Quote
