I have made an application using Qt 5.0.2 and made its build using inno setup. The application is successfully installed and launched at my system and worked fine.But when i installed it on other system, application is not installing or launching also no error showing. Please help me guys... What to do
If you are using visual studio to build your application you will probably need to install vcredist_sp1_x86.exe on the destination machine. You can find it somewhere in the installation folder of Qt. You can add it to the list of files in the Inno script, and add entry in the [Run] section. Also make sure you have included in your setup script:
Qt5Core.dll
Qt5Gui.dll
Qt5Widgets.dll
libGLESv2.dll
icuuc49.dll
icuin49.dll
icudt49.dll
D3DCompiler_43.dll
plugins/platforms/qwindows.dll ->should be installed in platforms/qwindows.dll in the destination folder. The same applies to imageformats plugins if you use them.
If you think there are too much dlls you will need to rebuild Qt with other configuration options, but that's another story...

I have the same problem as described here:
https://github.com/NLua/NLua/issues/33
Though I have followed the instructions to create a console application...
http://www.screencast.com/t/M12TqePQxW
...which works just fine, when I create a library project and reference it from another project (in this case, a Web API project) the following error occurs:
Unable to load DLL 'lua52': The specified module could not be found.
At this line:
using (var lua = new Lua())
How can a library project be made with the NLua nuget package without failing?
It is the exact same issue as described in the GitHub issue, the Nuget package is missing two DLLs that you need to use lua52.dll. One small difference, the current package (version 1.3.2.1) includes a newer version of lua52.dll that was built with VS2013. And therefore has a dependency on msvcr120.dll and msvp120.dll.
Beware that this may change in the future when Nuget updates your project.
As-is, you need to download and install the Visual C++ redistributable package for VS2013. Run both vcredist_x64.exe and vcredist_x86.exe so your project can run either in 32-bit or 64-bit mode.
To avoid having to do this on the machine on which you want to deploy your program, I recommend you copy the two DLLs from the c:\windows\system32 (64-bit) or c:\windows\syswow64 (32-bit) directories into the same directory as your EXE.
The package author could have done a better job putting this package together. Short from including the DLLs in the package, the better solution would be for him to rebuild lua52.dll with the /MT option so these dependencies are linked in. Consider clicking the New Issue button to let him know.
i have a problem with the installation of a Firebreath plugin on Windows XP machine.
I'm using Visual Studio 2008 setup project to place generated plugin dll in program folder to get the plugin work but when i run the installer the plugin is usable only by the user who install the plugin and if i log in the machine with another user with limited privileges Firefox cannot see the plugin.
What i'm doing wrong with this process?
Should i use Wix installer instead of Visual studio 2008 setup project to get the plugin work for all users in the machine ?
What is the correct "Firebreath" way to install a plugin and to make it visible to all users in the machine?
Thank for your time!
Francesco.
1) Nothing. This is as designed; FireBreath installs per-user by default, always has. This is a feature, since it means you don't have to have administrator privileges to install.
2) Not by default, no.
3) Uncomment the following line in your PluginConfig.cmake file and rerun the prep script:
# If you want to register per-machine on Windows, uncomment this line
set (FB_ATLREG_MACHINEWIDE 1)
I am developping a multi-platform application under Linux. To build the Windows versions, I make use of cross-compiling with MinGW. For "first" tests, I am using wine. First, I have started with MinGW32 and wine configured for Windows XP.
I need to build tier dll and my own dll. Build is alright. If I copy them in C:\windows\system32\ and run my application which use these dll under wine, it does not find them. If I put a copy of the dll in the same directory than the application, it works.
I have tried :
~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/
/root/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/
If I run the explorer (wine explorer), and browse into C:\windows\system32\ , my dll are not there !
Thus, how can I make wine find home made dlls ? I have had a look at winecfg and winetricks, but they are of no help.
Cheers,
Laurent.
Try creating an installer for your application, using nsis or something, and creating a package that includes your dll and application. Then install that installer using wine.
I am currently developing a Windows Store App that will eventually be targeted at the ARM devices when they are available. For now, I have been developing and testing from Visual Studio on my desktop computer and everything works fine. However, when I try to create an app package that I can pass along to others within my company for testing purposes, the application will not run properly.
The solution includes two projects. The first is a C++ project that is set to build a dll file. The purpose for this is to expose the Direct2D and DirectWrite libraries that seem to be unaccessible to a C# project. The second project is the C# project that references this dll for drawing functions and includes a XAML interface and most of the program logic. All of this works flawlessly on my development machine from within Visual Studio (and also when installing the package).
When I send the package files to other individuals within the company, the installation appears to work fine by installing with the PowerShell script. The tile appears in the start screen and the program will launch for a few seconds. The C# and XAML interface appears, but the DirectX portion of the application is not visible and the entire application shuts down within a few seconds. This makes me believe that the dll may not be installing or referenced correctly upon installation. I have checked the package file, and the dll file is included in the package after the build process is complete.
I have packaged a few different test programs (MSDN Samples) that have all installed on their machines, but we get the same results that they will not run (again, all samples run fine on my development machine when building them). The only test project that worked properly was a simple C# project that did not use DirectX at all. Any of the DirectX samples that I tried have all failed (including the native C++ samples that do not use C# at all).
To be clear, the process I use for building is going to Project -> Store -> Create App Packages and choosing the No option for uploading to the Windows Store.
Does anyone have any ideas on what might be going wrong with the build or installation process?
Thanks in advance for any help!
Does it work with the Metro Sideloader? I am not sure if it just adds a UI to the Powershell script, but it works for my team and me for testing...
Good luck!
Are you side loading a Debug version of your DirectX app onto a machine that does not have the Windows SDK installed? Visual Studio's default DirectX projects and the samples on MSDN both request the D3D11_CREATE_DEVICE_DEBUG flag when creating the D3D Device. Device creation will fail if the Windows SDK is not installed on the machine running the code.
Here are a few different options that will allow you to unblock yourself. Any one of these should give you the desired result:
Create a Release package and deploy that instead of a Debug package.
or - Go to DirectXBase.cpp and remove the D3D11_CREATE_DEVICE_DEBUG flag from the code.
or - Install the Remote Debugging tools for Visual Studio on the target machines. This will install the necessary SDK components to allow creation of D3D Debug devices. The other cool thing about this option is that once you're set up you won't have to create packages manually and side load them anymore. Just tell Visual Studio the name of your ARM machine and press F5 to deploy it remotely. More information here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/vstudio/bt727f1t.aspx
How are you deploying the native DLL with your project? Are you using project-to-project references? Can you verify that your DLL is ending up in the final package, in the root of the package application directory?
I recommend using Sysinternals Procmon to watch your application load on the target machine. If it crashes or fails, you can look in the log history for which DLL it is trying to load and failing. Typically this will show up as a repeated series of DLL load probes (it will try and load the dll from the application directory, and then proceed to try a number of other paths).
This is Edited from the OP. This is a VB .NET 4.0 WinForms application. There is a mysql datasource involved with this project. The target CPU is set to any. Problem: When running this application on any computer that has VS 2010 installed along with the mysql connector it runs flawlessly. When installing on a virgin system(ie. No developer environment installed) but that machine does have .net framework 4.0 installed and a mysql server without the connector installed the application falls immediately. So to fix the issue I install the mysql connector MSI. This immediately fixes the issue on the client system and it runs. The problems is that as you can see below from my Installer setup that the 2 needed DLL files for MYSQL are actually included in the installation package so should not need to be installed separately. So Why is it that using that installer from the images do I need to install the mysql connector? Any Ideas? Below is a screen shot of the References the program uses and from what I believe I do not need to deploy any of those DLL files with my application other than the 2 MYSQL DLL files. So why is this failing?? Below are images showing the project references as well as the Installer Files that are being installed in the applicaiton folder. As shown in the image the 2 mysql dll files are to be put in the application folder. There is also a screen shot showing each dll's properties for in application folder.
You answered your own question.
but that machine does have .net framework 4.0 installed and a mysql server without the connector installed the application falls immediately.
You don't need to install the connector msi package, but you do need to include the two DLL files in the application's directory. Anytime you have some dependency, you need to deploy it with your application.
Edit solution quoted from my comment:
From your update it sounds like you have a version mismatch on the
assemblies, and the references are set to Specific Version = True.
Check the version number of the assemblies on your developer machine
in the output directory, and check the version you are installing on
the client system. (You can just hover over the DLL to read the
version on the ToolTip). You can try to set Specific Version to false
by right clicking your reference and selecting properties, or simply
ensure you deploy the same version of assemblies. Your program is
looking for the versions its compiled against
