What I'm doing at present - when installing a component package, I copy the
new package to my C drive, under a components folder, giving it a folder of
it's own e.g.. WPTools. Then I go into Delphi 6 and choose Component -->
Install Packages. I click on Add and surf to the bpl file within the
component package folder. I select the BPL and it installs, placing a tick
next to the package. I also make sure that under Tools --> Environment
Options, under the library tab, that I have the path to the component
package bpl, listed there.
Normally this works well, however, every so often, the next time I go back
into Delphi, it comes up with a message saying: "The dynamic link library
xxxx.bpl could not be found in the specified path ......" (it lists a heap
of Borland & WINNT paths - but nothing from the library paths I've set up)
(I don't know where it's getting these paths from).
I go back into the component packages list and find it is now unticked and
trying to tick it again, just brings up the same error message just
described. My only way around it so far, is to copy the bpl files of that
component, to $Delphi/bin. This seems silly, as it has the path for the
component and it shouldn't be necessary.
I just installed Delphi 6 on someone's PC, and all our 3rd party components
are playing up in this way. I've checked the registry and can't see anything
significant.
Any suggestions? I've come across this before but don't remember how I
resolved it - think I just fluked it.
