  • 1. Internet Explorer shipped with VS .NET application
    Dear sirs, I'have a VS .NET application that needs IE 6.0 SP1 to run. I'm going to distribute the application on a CD-ROM joined to a book. I need to know if it's possible to include ie6setup.exe (and related cabs) in the CD-ROM respecting IE 6.0 SP1 and MSDN Universal Licences. I don't know if this is the right place to post my question, however if I'm in the wrong place please tell me where to post. Best ragards.
  • 2. Visual Studio .NET 2003 Academic Activation Limit
    Hi -- First off let me stat that I have a legit copy of .NET here. Few days agao I decided to reimage my machine. Windows XP was installed on my machine prior but I decided to install Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition on it. After installing .NET 7.1.3088 on my system I went to activate my product but received this message ... " According to our records, this copy of Visual Studio .NET Academic 2003 - English has already been activated on the maximum number of computers allowed. " Since I bought my copy legitally here last year I have only installed it on the same computer 2 or 3 times already prior to the reinstallation earlier in the week. Hey, what can I say but I do a lot of experimenting on my computer and sometimes bad things happen :) Anyways, what I want to know is if there is a known activation limit, and what are my options here to resolve this matter? I know for a fact that no one else has my unique serial number because I keep it underneath my matress which is underneath a big ton acme anvil :) Thanks for any suggestions here and any input given. - XXXX@XXXXX.COM

unrecoverable error in VS 2005 Deployment project build

Postby VmF5VGVr » Sun, 15 Jul 2007 01:50:01 GMT

Hi All - I posted this under setup and realized that isn't appropriate - I am 
trying general now.

The exact problem is that when I build/rebuild a certain deployment project
on our build server either in the UI or using the command line command of
devenv.exe the build ends with an "unrecoverable" error.

Other bits of information:

A) The build works on other machines just not the build server.

B) Other builds work on the build machine just not this particular one. It
is a large solution with 25 projects. In the past year the solution had more
projects but some have been removed.

C) I have repaired the VS 2005 install. Rebooted. Reloaded the solution from
source safe.

I have already read the article at
 http://www.**--****.com/ 

It defines 5 areas to investigate and fix.

1) to many code and design windows open -
In this situation none are open - generally this is running from the command
line. In testing with the UI no windows are open except the start window.

2) Multiple folders have same name. The project is quite large but the
deployment project builds on another xp machine with the same amount of
memory.

3) Missing registrations - the problem machine has all the indicated
registry entries. Remember other builds work on this machine.

4) Mergemod.dll is not registered correctly
I have registered this dll and ole32.dll as well.

5) Upgrade from the Beta 2 of Visual Studio.
This system never had the beta 2 version.

I have the same problem.  I figured out my cause.

My app has 2 activex that needs to be register, so I changed to setup to 
install them to the system folder and to register them.

I get the error.  I change it back to the application folder and I don't get 
the error and it builds ok.

Hope this helps

Hope this is the right place for the post.

VS 2003

When I try to buld any setup package I get the "Unrecoverable Build Error"

Been through the KB Article 329214 PRB: Unrecoverable Build Error"

Been through all the Resolution steps, including uninstalling VS.NET 2003
and reinstalling

Verified all the registry keys listed in the KB Article Above.

Re-registered Mergemod.dll as described.

Still get the error.

Perhaps there is something really simple I am failing to do, but I cannot
find it.

4.setup project unrecoverable build error

Hi, guys,
I am practicing the setup wizard of VC.Net. When I build the setup project,
I am always told "unrecoverable build error". I really have no clue what's
going on here.
I tried this on W2K and windows XP. Start the setup wizard, select the setup
for a windows application, and include the release .exe file, and then
build. I think this is all I need to do.
Anybody can tell me what's going on here?
Thanks a lot for your attention.

5.VS Deployment Project throws Sql Server 2005 Tools error

I'm trying to construct a deployment project using Visual Studio 2005.
I have done this more than once, but today, it began throwing a very
lengthy error that begins:

The setup has encountered an unexepected error in datastore: The
action is SetInstanceProperty.

I haven't installed any new software and to ensure that it wasn't the
result of a goofy launch condition, I created a blank deployment
project and attempted to build. I get the error, even with a blank
project.

Anyone have an idea as to what might be happening here?

I have Visual Studio Version 8.0.50727.62 (SP.050727-7600) and am
using Sql Server 2005.

Thanks for your help,

Vic
