Hi Erich and fellow rcom users,
I have been doing some testing of the new RAndFriends including the new R 2.7.0 (RAndFriendsSetup2070V20.exe). I get the folowing error message when trying to install using Vista Ultimate edition: C\Windows\System32\stdole2.tlb Unable to register the type library: RegisterTypeLib failed; code 0x8002801C. Error accessing the OLE registry. I'm fairly sure the error message relates to the R(D)Com part of the installation. However, if I continue installation by choosing to ignore this message then the installation seems to work fine! Following a brief websearch I have found a couple of other cases reported where the same error occurs. The file "stdole2.tlb" relates to visual basic. I think the problem relates to the Inno setup installation trying to overwrite the "C\Windows\System32\stdole2.tlb" where the file already exists, see http://www.smurphy.co.uk/board/viewtopic.php?t=1465 and hence why choosing ignore works fine. I did indeed find that "C\Windows\System32\stdole2.tlb" was already present on my machine. The following article discusses the same error message when using Inno Setup: http://www.vbforums.com/archive/index.php/t-468770.html and points to a solution. I did get another error message when uninstalling R(D)Com server,namely: Runtime Error (at 11:90) Internal Error. Cannot call "ISCOMPENENTSELECTED" function during uninstall. but installation seemed to work fine despite this message.
