I have been round and round trying to figure out why I cannot get StrataFrame v1.6.5 (release as of yesterday) installed.



The installation goes through without a hitch however when opening Visual Studio 2008, I get this error:



The Add-In 'StrataFrame Add-In Manager' failed to load or caused an exception.

StrataFrame2008.AddIn



Message: The system cannot find the file specified.

Number: 80070002





I believe this may be due to me running Vista x64?

I've tried copying the files from Program Files (x86) to the Program Files location and the other way around. (Get other errors when doing that...)

I've installed, uninstalled, re-installed and checked the GAC making sure I didn't have any old references.

I've tried modifying the AddIn file to reflect both locations, and nothing seems to work so I figured it was time to ask for help!



What can I do to get this installed and functioning?

Hello Trent,

thank you very much for your generous offer to help me online. It's a very nice kind of you, a really great service.

But meanwhile I found the solution right here at the SF-forum: http://forum.strataframe.net/Topic211-10-1.aspx

The path to the SF Addin.dll pointed to the wrong direction, directories named in english on a german XP. This can't work, but is easy to fix if you know where to look at. ;-)

Thank you very much for your great support,

Ralph

I'm glad you found it, Ralph.  There really is a great deal of information to be found here on the forum if you know where to look
