Hi
I am encountering a problem while running the setu program. Towards the end of the setup, it returns an error saying
"C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\msftqws.pdw\${DLLSelfRegisterEx}' could not be registered because it was not found."


Thanks in advance

 

Sounds like the file is missing from your setup package. If you have winzip open up the cab file created and see if you can find the file in question. If not then you will need to create a new package and make sure that the file is added, even if you have to do it manually.

Good Luck

 
Hi

We found the cause. We have added mscal.ocx as part of the project and it is also becomes part of the setup. And this mscal.ocx creates the error. We have removed mscal.ocx from the setup and it is working fine now.

thanks for your efforts
 
There is an error in the mscal dependency file that causes this. It's a fairly well known problem.
Solution 1: Use MonthView or DTPicker control instead
Solution 2: Change the dependency info.
1. Open the MSCal.dep file in a text editor, such as Notepad. You should find MSCal.dep in the same folder as MSCal.ocx, which is normally located in Winnt\System32 folder on Windows NT or Windows 2000.

2. Find $(DLLSelfRegisterEx). You should see (DLLSelfRegisterEx) highlighted in the entry for "Register=".

3. Change $(DLLSelfRegisterEx) to $(DLLSelfRegister).

4. Save and re-run setup

There used to be a KB article on this, but I can't find it at present
