EOModeler on Windows XP problem -problem solved
If anyone is having a problem with EOModeler on Windows XP, here’s
a solution:
---
I had a problem with EOModeler, it simply wouldn’t start.
It’s a part of WebObjects 5.2.4, that is WebObjects 5.2 that had
been updated to 5.2.4
The bug came in during the update.
The solution is this:
after the original installation of WebObjects 5.2, verify that
EOModeler works.
You can also check if you see the following processes running in task
manager:
nmserver.exe, machd.exe, pbs.exe –these are all necessary for
EOModeler to run.
Right Click My Computer and select Manage
Select Services
In the Services Menu, make all Apple Services manual and turn them off.
Go on with the WebObjects Update to 5.2.4
Turn the Apple Services back on and make them automatic.
Restart computer.
EOModeler should now work.
Thanks to Logan Allred and all the others who helped us out.
Siggi Olafsson.

It's been a
long time since I had this problem, but I'm pretty sure that uninstalling and
re-installing WebObjects fixed the problem for me. I recall that I am very
careful when running the updates to 5.2.x that I turn off all of the services
first, the run the updaters, then turn them all back on as Automatic. You may
also want to verify WO is working after your initial 5.2 install, as I've had
trouble with the update installers in the past.

:-D. A
highly desirable solution. Fortunately, I have my PowerBook for my
non-corporate work. At least there's WOLips so I can pretend ProjectBuilder/Win
doesn't even exist. I don't think I could survive running ProjectBuilder on a
daily basis.

Do you know how I could get them to work?
There should be instructions on how to install these manually, but it
has been years since I needed to do so and I forget where they are in
the install. Also, there are 3rd party programs that will install an
exe as a service. You could try using one of those.

RE: EOModeler on Windows XP problem
The event logs flag an error for EOModeler.exe:
system error 2
(The system cannot find the file
specified.):
fastipc_connect("Apple Mach Emulation
Daemon v2.0").
Also, none of the following processes are
running:
pbs.exe
nmserver.exe
machd.exe
Do you know how I could get them to work?
Best regards,
Siggi Olafsson.

I'm no
genius, but I can give some hints and tips. First, check the System event logs.
EOModeller requires that certain Services be working, like the Apple Mach
Daemon, and the Apple Netname Server. Check your services control panel to
makes sure they are working, and see if the event logs are showing any errors.
Also, check your Task Manager to make sure you have pbs.exe, WindowServer.exe,
nmserver.exe, and machd.exe running. If any of these are not working properly,
none of the Apple apps will run (EOModeller, WOBuilder, etc.). Usually they
fail to launch silently except sometimes an entry in the System event log.
HTH,
Logan
