This application has failed to start because MSVCRTD.dll

[mstorman]

1. When I download PcHelpWare_rel10.zip and browse to /server there is a PcHelpware.exe file there. When I create a custom server, everything works fine.

2. When I download PcHelpWare_rel10_src.zip, browse to /gui_src open the project file in Visual Studio, and build a new PcHelpware.exe - then replace the PcHelpware.exe in 1 with the newly built one I get the following error: "This application has failed to start because MSVCRTD.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem"

Any Thoughts?

Thanks,
Matthew.

VC6.0 redistributables are preinstalled on all OS's.
VS2005 redistributables like (MSVCRTD.dll) does not exist on older systems, you need to include them or static link so the exe is independed of the dll.

Does what you said still apply since im using Visual Studio 2006 Enterprise?

Thanks,

Doh! I was compiling in debug mode and not release mode.

Thanks!
