IBM 8.0.1.0 Client issues

Post by senthilt1 »

Hi,

In DS client I am unable to view the stage properties in Sequencer. Also when i open the stages in job level it allows me for some time and many times am getting the error called OLE. Whenever i open the basic routines, i am getting the "run time error 1000" Invalid option when bound.


Initially after installation it was working fine, suddenly this has happened.
Please suggest what shall i do for this.

Thanks,
Senthil P

If it's just a problem for your installation, I'd suggest trying a reinstallation of the client right over the top old the old one.

You could always try that. If you do, make sure you remove all traces of the old client before you reinstall - and that means using regedit and also deleting leftover directories / files as well.

Are you using Windows SP2?

What about clients in other PCs?

He wanted to know if you have Windows "SP2" - Service Pack 2 - installed on your client pc. And if this is strictly your problem or if others are seeing this as well.

Hi,

Yes, Its Service Pack 2 in my machine.

There are DS clients installed on other machines for the same server and they are able to access all. But we installed 3 more clients recently and this was fine for a week and suddenly this issue has happened.

Please let me know what to do for this.

Thanks

This appears to be the typical symptom of rolling out new set of DLLs to all group machine in the network.

Assume you may have to uninstall including the dlls or reinstall over-writing them.

Does the clients running ok now are in Windows Service Pack 2?

Executing this in the command prompt solved the issue....
regsvr32 "C:\Windows\system32\vsflex7L.ocx"
