Yes. I assumed it would be there but, in reality, it need not be unless you're writing client programs. > > Were there any other error windows displayed? > > No. Ok... So the VC9 run-time is a requirement that wasn't clearly documented. If you're game for continuing this test, could you please grab the Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable package from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=9B2DA534-3E03 -4391-8A4D-074B9F2BC1BF&displaylang=en And install that, then re-run the broker. No need to reinstall Qpid.
