alogrep 0 Posted November 10 HI. my package builds ok. But trying to install results in the error The specified module could not be found. I read all the posts I could find on this. it is almost impossible to find the real problem. Could this info get to shade some light? In Process monitor i see these 2 lines with Result NAME NOT FOUND (each repeated twice) C:\Users\1\AppData\Roaming\Embarcadero\BDS\23.0\UserTools.proj C:\HMXE_A\MYCOMPONENTS\mine2.deployproj tHE DPK IS C:\HMXE_A\MY COMPONENTS\MINE2.DPK And the mine2.bpl IS there. P.S. Dependexny walker gives me many many errors on microsoft dlls ??? Share this post Link to post
Anders Melander 1795 Posted November 11 Dependency Walker is really old and isn't really up to the task anymore. We used to be able to run Delphi in Dependency Walker and have it trace the loading of DLLs but on my system it just hangs forever when loading bds.exe. I guess there are simply too many dependencies. It also appears that it doesn't know about the rules modern versions of Windows uses to locate and load DLLs. I think your best bet is to use Process Monitor to see which DLLs (or BPLs) it's looking for but can't find. Remember to filter on bds.exe and stop the trace once the error occurs. The two files you listed doesn't matter. Forget about those. For example in my Delphi I have the design-time package GR32_D290 installed. GR32_D290 depends on the run-time package GR32_R290. If I now delete (or rename) GR32_R290 I get the following when I start Delphi: and I get this in Process Monitor: bds.exe FASTIO_NETWORK_QUERY_OPEN C:\Users\Public\Documents\Embarcadero\Studio\23.0\Bpl\GR32_D290.bpl FAST IO DISALLOWED bds.exe IRP_MJ_CREATE C:\Users\Public\Documents\Embarcadero\Studio\23.0\Bpl\GR32_D290.bpl SUCCESS Desired Access: Read Attributes, Disposition: Open, Options: Open Reparse Point, Attributes: n/a, ShareMode: Read, Write, Delete, AllocationSize: n/a, OpenResult: Opened ...etc... followed by a lot of: bds.exe FASTIO_NETWORK_QUERY_OPEN D:\Development\Embarcadero\Studio\23.0\bin\GR32_R290.bpl NAME NOT FOUND bds.exe FASTIO_NETWORK_QUERY_OPEN C:\Windows\SysWOW64\GR32_R290.bpl FAST IO DISALLOWED bds.exe IRP_MJ_CREATE C:\Windows\SysWOW64\GR32_R290.bpl NAME NOT FOUND Desired Access: Read Attributes, Disposition: Open, Options: Open Reparse Point, Attributes: n/a, ShareMode: Read, Write, Delete, AllocationSize: n/a bds.exe FASTIO_NETWORK_QUERY_OPEN C:\Windows\System\GR32_R290.bpl FAST IO DISALLOWED bds.exe IRP_MJ_CREATE C:\Windows\System\GR32_R290.bpl NAME NOT FOUND Desired Access: Read Attributes, Disposition: Open, Options: Open Reparse Point, Attributes: n/a, ShareMode: Read, Write, Delete, AllocationSize: n/a bds.exe FASTIO_NETWORK_QUERY_OPEN C:\Windows\GR32_R290.bpl FAST IO DISALLOWED bds.exe IRP_MJ_CREATE C:\Windows\GR32_R290.bpl NAME NOT FOUND Desired Access: Read Attributes, Disposition: Open, Options: Open Reparse Point, Attributes: n/a, ShareMode: Read, Write, Delete, AllocationSize: n/a ...etc... I.e. one NAME NOT FOUND for each entry in the search path. Share this post Link to post
