    Pervasive database connection errors

    Did you run delbtdll.exe in the Macola root directory to remove the 6.15 components?

    Macola and windows xp sp2

    I have a further question or two... so it only works on PCs that have been imaged from a source PC, correct? Has that source PC been used in production, and can it run ERS successfully?

    Macola and windows xp sp2

    I'm not that familiar with ERS, but you should be able to use the Pervasive ODBC without issue because Pervasive is btrieve (after btrieve 6.15, it was acquired by Pervasive who released Pervasive SQL 7). There is a btrieve 6.15 utility to control parameters such as that, but for the life of...

    last-login-company in macola7.ini

    Good point. Save yourself some time.

    Macola and windows xp sp2

    If you're running Pervasive SQL 2000, the file: App: M:\Macola70\W32MKDE.EXE should not be there. There should be no btrieve components in the Macola root directory. When there is no one in Macola, and the Users directory is empty, run renbtdll.exe, which is found in the Macola root directory...

    last-login-company in macola7.ini

    They may not have one in their profiles. You may need to copy it (and the Windows dir) to each profile. After that, get rid of the macola7.ini in c:\windows. Don't get rid of C:\windows, however... ;-)

    last-login-company in macola7.ini

    It could be that all users in the TS environment are pulling the info from the Macola7.ini in the c:\windows dir instead of the windows dir under their profile. To test this, change the starting-progression line in the macola7.ini in the c:\windows dir to something you'll recognize (i.e. test...

    Download filemon from http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/FileAndDisk/Filemon.mspx and run it on a working workstation while the report runs. Then, run it on a non-working workstation while the report falters. Compare the two reports to find the point of failure.

    Check Anti-Virus settings between the workstations, looking for variances. Also, check your Windows firewall settings.

    MacMSL.dll Error on OEORDDTL_SQL Table

    Looks like an invalid character... Invalid character value for cast specification

    Macola and vista

    Dell, however, will not put Vista on their low end Dimensions, which is what I imagine Randva uses. On the optiplexes, which are the business class machines, you can have XP loaded without a fight. Dell will also sell you an enterprise or volume license for XP, so you can get the machines with...

    Macola all of a sudden VERY slow....

    If what Andy says is the case and you're on XP, roll back XP to a date in time prior to the problem occurring and see if it recurs. If it does, apply the XP patches one by one until you find the one that breaks the system, roll it back and then decline it.

    Macola and vista

    I wouldn't hold out much hope, just because of the tightened security. That being said, Vista allows you to run applications in what amounts to an emulation mode of older operating systems (95, 98, 2000, XP, etc.). Perhaps that would be the way to go. However, if the budget permits, bring on...

    Upgrade to 76400a and lose VBA/Flex

    Off the top of my head, either a dll/ocx is the wrong version or unregistered. In the Macola Shared, Windows\System, Windows\Ssytem32 and the flex folder, run the following command for %1 in (*.dll, *.ocx) do regsvr32 /s %1

    7.6.400 Update - User Module Access now a mess

    I haven't seen it on 7.6.400, mainly because I haven't seen Progression since 7.6.300...but I've seen the issue happen during upgrades. It had multiple causes, and I'll present the two I've experienced. 1. Update scripts hose syspass and/or syscomp tables. With one client, they restored back...

    Macola 7.6.100a Hangs PC on Start-up

    Here's something that may point us in the right direction. Try downloading Filemon and Regmon from Microsoft's site: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/Processesandthreadsutilities.mspx Play with them on a workstation to get a feel for how they work. Is some ways their sort of like...

    Macola 7.6.100a Hangs PC on Start-up

    If you leave TaskManager open while launching PWE, what process spikes the CPU? Also, does Progression Explorer respond in the same way? My initial thoughts are that the user is either accidentally launching multiple instances of PWE, or there might be some spyware loaded, but can't say for...

    New to Macola

    I wanted add that there are several resellers who frequent this board, so if you want a demo, I'm sure something could be arranged.

    New to Macola

    A few questions to answer your question properly: What's your LOB? How many users? What's your network infrastructure? What's your budget for implementation? What version of Macola are you interested in? What's your time frame? Have you arranged a demo? What are your aches and pains with your...

    Colocation of macola server

    It should work without issue. One thing to consider is uptime... I've done colos, not for Macola, but for networks that use other apps (MAS200, ACCPAC). In each case we put in redundant ISPs, and used a firewall capable of rolling over from one to the other. For example, one site used Time...
