GAC install problem

[Dean Slindee]

Getting the following message when doing a ClickOnce install at a deployment
PC: "Unable to install or run the application. The application requires
that assembly Microsoft.Offic e.Interop.Acces s Version 11.0.0.0 be installed
in the Global Assembly Cache (GAC) first. Please contact your system
administrator."

Development PC: Windows 2000, Visual Studio 2005. Application runs reports
from an Access.adp, and has a reference to Access 11.0 Object Library within
the WinForm project and is in the GAC on the Development PC.

Deployment PC: Windows XP with Framework 2.0 installed, Office 2003
installed. I would presume that the GAC would get Access Version 11.0.0.0
installed into C:\Windows\asse mbly when installing Office 2003?

If this message saying that the Deployment PC does not have Access Version
11.0.0.0 in C:\Windows\asse mbly folder, what should be done?

Thanks,
Dean S

Yes, the message indicates that you're missing the Access PIA (Primary Interop Assembly). You should
be able to use the Gacutil utility to install this interop assembly into the GAC (Global Assembly
Cache).

Dean,

If this message saying that the Deployment PC does not have Access Version
11.0.0.0 in C:\Windows\asse mbly folder, what should be done?

As Paul suggests, this is telling you don't have the Access PIAs installed,
Access itself should be installed to your Programs Files folder...

I would suggest you ensure Access & its PIAs are installed first, the
"easiest" way to do this would be to use the Access/Office setup program and
ensure the ".NET Programmability Support" component is selected.

Alternatively you can download & install the PIAs from Microsoft's web site.

For details (on both) see:
