Hello,

I wrote a vb6 application that uses the crystal 9 components to print a report. This appliction is kind of a scheduler that will print the report at a certain time every morning. I created a setup using the VB P&D and I tried to install it on a "Windows 2003 Server". The install go all the way to where you see "Setup is updating your System" and it hangs up. I've let it sit there for about 30 minutes but is never goes away. When I look at task manager it says it is not responding. I tried this on a couple of "Windows 2003 Servers" and it did the same on both. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

UncleT
 
Without getting an error message, I'd guess that it's attempting to write or over-write a dll that 2003 isn't letting it do. Go through the servers Event Log during the time that the install first hung and see if theres anything that helps.

Also, what service pack are you running on your visual basic? The Msvbvm60.dll file was updated in 2003. The updated file was put out in service pack 6.
