I have a C++ ActiveX control that is used by JavaScript code in*
Internet Explorer. Recently, a customer installed Acrobat Reader 8.1*
and reported that the ActiveX control wasn't working. In the event*
viewer, there's a error from SideBySide: "Generate Activation Context*
failed for ... . Reference error message: A component version required*
by the application conflicts with another component version already*
active."
Investigation showed that before Acrobat was installed the control was*
using msvcr80.dll requesting 50727.104. If I closed the control and*
installed Acrobat, msvcr80.dll version 50727.163 was immediately*
loaded by Internet Explorer. When we tried to load the control, it*
wouldn't start and the error message was put in the Event Log.
I noticed that the redirect in in the 8.0.50727.163 policy redirected*
8.0.50727.42 to 8.0.50727.163 but didn't redirect 8.0.50727.104. If I*
added a redirect for 8.0.50727.104, the control started fine.
It also started fine if I installed SP1 redistributable .
Why is 8.0.50727.104 not redirected? I thought the whole purpose of
the*Side By Side software was to allow multiple versions of the dll to
run*at the same time. Is that not correct? How does it apply in this
case?
Thanks
Mike

Hi Mike,
I just got the confirmation from the Dev team. It is confirmed that this
issue was an older product issue and had been got fixed in the latest
service pack SP1. I think that that is why it started fine after you
installed SP1 redistributable .
They recommend that you redistribute VS2005 SP1 CRTs with your ActiveX
control so that this issue will not happen again.
Please feel free to let me know if you have any questions or concerns. Have
a nice day!
Best regards,
Charles Wang

After I use Access 2K Developer to package and deploy, and then when

Version Conflict
A file being copied is not newer than the file currently on your system. It
is recommended that you keep your existing file.
It then says file name and offers you to keep or not keep the file. I found
it doesn't make a difference what you pick but this dialog box can look
scary...

Hi
I have version 1 of an app already installed on client computers. Now I want
to install version 2 of the app while keeping version 1 for now so client
can test version 2 while keep on using version 1 for now. When I try to
install version 2 I get the message "Another version of the product is
installed...". How can I get round this?
Thanks

My network services guy is telling me that only one version of .net can run
on a website under IIS 6 0n windows server 2003. For example, if a web site
is running a 1.1 app it can't also run a 2.x app. I can believe that for
individual web applications but not for entire iis web sites.
But I thought I would ask. Does anyone know if this is documented anywhere?

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
