Title: Problem installing MJ 9
Post by: Dubster on October 11, 2002, 11:04:36 am

I'm really curious to see the new whiz-bang, but all I get is "Required file not found: OLEACC.DLL".

Win98SE.

That's from a Microsoft bug in the latest Development suite.

There's a workaround, but we must not be doing it in every MJ component.

Try tonight's build, and if it isn't better, just give a shout.

Thanks.

I seem to be in very deep trouble with this.  After MJ 9 wouldn't install I tried to re-install MJ 8 but each plugin would not install.  The result was unusable.  I couldn't get a successful uninstall as these attempts also failed on the missing OLEACC.dll message.

I made several attempts to manually remove everything.  This includes removing all J River files, purging the registry of all MJ keys and running RegClean.  I tried MJ 9.066 too but still can't get anything to install cleanly.

Any suggestions will be gratefully accepted.

You might try updating Windows, from IE/tools/windows update.

I believe that the problem happened because Microsoft required a dll in one of it's new files for the c compiler in .net but didn't include it.

Searching for that file name on google might provide better information.

I should have mentioned that I did that too!
