Hi All,
I was installing SP5.0 onto our 6 Solidworks workstations (all areidentical Dell Precision workstations) this evening. All was goingfine until I got to the last workstation. When the progress bar wasnearing completion and the installation manager was registeringcomponents/dlls and finalizing the installation, an error dialogpopped up:
Error 1904.Module [filepath] Failed to Register.
C:\Program Files\Common Files\SolidWorks Shared\DwgDocumentMgr.dll
C:\Program Files\Common Files\eDrawings2007\EModelReviewer.dll
C:\Program Files\Common Files\eDrawings2007\EModelView.dll
C:\Program Files\Common Files\eDrawings2007\EModelXlator.dll
Clicking "OK" on these errors the installation finished however asI suspected E-Drawings and SW Explorer failed to run, SW also threwup an error but it ran. I tried manually registering these dll'sthrough regsvr32 without success.
I then uninstalled everything and ran a SW clean uninstall utilityto clean up all the registry remains. Manually deleted anyremaining SW Folders and cleaned out all temp file locations.Rebooted and then turned off Anti-spyware and Antivirus servicesand tried a fresh install from DVD at SP0.0. Whathappened.......only the same darn error dialogs on the same files.This time I was able to manually register all the dll's and noweverything's back running again.
This is the first time I have ever experienced such a headache whendoing an installation or installing a SP. Im just wondering hasanybody else experienced this before and can maybe can offer anexplanation for future reference.SolidworksAdministration
