OK, so there ARE in fact two different versions. > It suggests that you have previously copied a newer DLL over the one near the > IDE engine - so it works in the IDE... > Then when you copied the same DLL into the runtime folder, it then works in > standalones too. I cannot speak for my customer, but maybe that is the case with him. However I have a "stock" Mac installation of LC 5.02 on my Mac, which I did NOT alter in any way. But here the same thing happened, it worked in the IDE, but not in the runtime!? And on the Mac there is even not revsecurity.dll, I think this functionality is in the engine. > The DLLs from newer versions aren't guaranteed to be compatible with older > versions - in the specific case of revsecurity it depends on whether OpenSSL > has changed its API in a way which causes an incompatibility but it hasn't > done this very often (fortunately in this case, it would seem!).
