Hi,

I just tried to install VAX 1555 on LH Beta 3 but the setup crashes. Older 14xx and 15xx versions also.

Here is a crash dump:

I have asked about this, since I don't currently have this installed. From memory Longhorn is the new OS, is that right? I have not been paying that much attention

Hi feline,

yes, Longhorn is the codename of the next version of Windows Server. The codebase is supposed to be shared with Vista, and IIRC VAX does run on Vista. So I didn't expect any difficulties here - well, sometimes one is out of luck.

As I do some server development I test early with Longhorn. But running VS without VAX is a pain.

Regards,
SvenC

VA definitely installs quite happily on Vista, both 32bit and 64bit, I do have both of those running here.

So the behaviour with Longhorn is really strange. Maybe the call stack does give some hint?
A crash occurs also when I manually regsvr32 va_x.dll. The crashing setup seems to get quite far, so that all the files are copied. Maybe it is the registration phase where the setup crashes.

Just a follow up if someone has the same effect:

Disable DEP as described in the post below for devenv.exe and the VAX setup exe.

That solved the installation crash for me.
