Problems with Windows Server 2008 r1

Post by dannypb » Mon 31 Aug 2009 13:56

Hi,

I am running dbxdma200, the mysql 2.00 driver, with Delphi 6 (I inherited it all). We are going to run everything on Citrix, and we are having problems running your driver on Windows Server 2000 r1 32 bit. The driver will not work on that server. What should I do?

Thanx

Please, specify what error does arise, and also specify the exact version of DbxMda.

The current application does not give back any error details. I am writing a client that will. The exact version is DBExpress for mysql version 2.00 . I will post again when I get detailed error results.

The error I am getting is "Unable to Load dbexpmda.dll". There is only one in the path.

We have started the process of purchasing the latest driver, version 4.40. Do you think that will help?

To solve the problem try to place dbexpmda.dll in the application folder or in a system folder like {WINDOWS}\SYSTEM32.

Yea,

I did that yesterday. There was one instance in the application directory and one that was in system32. I tried renaming one, then the other to see if it would load. I know that you cannot have more than one in the path. I also tried re-booting after re-copying the dll to system32. No luck, same error. But the the version we are using, version 2.00 too old for windows server 2008 r1 32 bit? Should we upgrade to version 4?

I also just renamed both instances of the dll on my own machine and copied the dll from the citrix machine (the windows server 2008 machine) to my system32 directory. it ran fine, so I don't have a file corruption issue.
