Dear collegues,

I tried to install our Xbase++ application (ver. 1.9 build 331) on a 
Vista machine. We tested our stuff on Vista and all seemed to work, but 
now I run into a problem :
For zipping and unzipping data files we use AZIP.DLL and AUNZIP.DLL 
respectively. On this Vista machine this results in a Internal Data 
Structures Corrupted error when the DLLLOAD is executed.
The DLL's are installed in the right place, as well as BAP

Has anyone seen this before ?

Kind regards,
Jan Groenestein

Hi Jan,

I to use AZIP.DLL and AUNZIP.DLL and haven't had that problem on Vista
machines.

What folder is data in you're zipping and unzipping?

Hello Don,

Thanks for your reply.
The data are in folders in which files are regularly created, deleted 
and edited by our application. I doubt that this has anything to do with 
security issues. Furthermore, the error occurs at the DLLLOAD function 
call, that is just the loading of the external DLL and no files in 
folders are accessed yet.

Kind regards,
Jan Groenestein

Hi Jorge,

Thanks for the tip but for now I will stick with AZIP.DLL. An error on 
one machine can't make me change a series of applications that run with 
many clients on many machines just yet.

Kind regards,
Jan Groenestein

Jan,
this has nothing to do with Vista and is the same under any version of 
Windows!
This error is due to a missing DLL - please do also copy ASCOM10C.DLL (not 
only ASCOM10.DLL) into your app-folder!

Regards,
Martin

Martin,

I also thought about that error. But is AZIP an AxtiveX part?

If this really is the problem: Alaska is aware of that and opened PDR 
6077 on that topic.

Jan,
this error is not only restricted to using ActiveX!
As soon as you do a DllCall(), you will need these two DLLs as well!

Martin

Martin,

Yes, this was causing the error ! The DLL was there but it was somehow 
damaged in the installation process. Also I was blaming Vista because at 
first I got some Xbase internal errors mentioning DLLLOAD, that was 
eliminated by installing the .manifest file.
Thank you (and all others in tis thread) very much for your help.

Kind regards,
Jan Groenestein

It is always a good idea in cases like this one to try and use
dependencywalkers "trace" function to take a look at missing DLLs.

Saved me a lot of thinking a couple of times.
