dotConnect for Oracle - Install Wizard

Unable to execute file:

c:\MS\VS2005\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe

CreateProcess failed; code 2.

The system cannot find the file specified.

---------------------------
I was uninstalling dcoracle560pro and installing dcoracle535pro.
Upon uninstall and reinstall I had in toolbox 5.55.97 OracleDatasource and there was no 5.35.79 dah to add it manually.
Also the Upgrade wizzard did'n do upgrade so I had to do it manually (from 5.2x to 5.35).

Windows 7 64
Visual studio 2008
Non default installation of VS and Dotconnect.
VS is installed in F:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0
(deven.exe is in location F:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE)

Best regards
Boris

1. The HelpReg error: merging the Devart documentation with the Microsoft help collection of Visual Studio 2005 failed.
a) have you installed / uninstalled the Visual Studio 2005/2008 Help collections before?
b) please tell us the content of the InstallDir registry keys which should be available at these locations:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\8.0
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\9.0

2. The UninstallAddin error: our uninstall program cannot find the COM objects with the specified GUIDs. Probably, there is a problem with the Visual Studio installation. This means that you need to remove the old version components from the toolbox manually.

3. The logDir error: our installation program cannot find the file basing on the registry entries. Please give us the content of the keys we have mentioned in the description of the HelpReg error.

4. Actually Upgrade Wizard was designed to upgrade from previous versions (CoreLab namespace) to dotConnect for Oracle 5.00 (Devart namespace). We will consider the possibility of using Upgrade Wizard to change only references.

1. Visual studio 2005 was never installed on the machine. Possibly combination of Delphi 2010 and Embarcadero Prism might messed up something. Specially Prism, since it was integrated into Visual studio 2008 and I've done it before upgrading (installation of prevous build vent normally, without Prism installed).

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\8.0
c:\MS\VS2005\Common7\IDE\

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\9.0
f:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE\

Thank you for the support.
Boris

Hi,
I've removed HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\8.0
from registry and now installation works normally.

Thank you.
Boris

We have improved Upgrade Wizard. It can be used for changing references when upgrading to the other version. I will post here when this functionality is available.
