From: Brian Scoffield [mailto:brianscoffield@...] Sent: Friday, December 18, 1998 6:50 AM To: magicu-l@... Subject: [magicu-l] V8.01a installation problems From: "Brian Scoffield" <brianscoffield@...> I attempted 2 separate installations this past week. Simple single workstation installations from the Magic CD. 1. V8.01a Deployment on Win95. I did a straight, accept all defaults, installation and I got the problem initializing the license database. I resolved that by moving the WBtrcall.dll files to the appropriate directories... 51K dll was already in the license directory so I moved the 42k dll from windows\system to the magic\deployment directory. I was then able to proceed.... 2. V8.01 Deployment on Win98. I did exactly the same thing on a win98 machine(at a different client, so the two installations are not related in any way) and was able to launch the License manager and add my license data and complete that task without a problem. I did not have to shuffle the dlls!!! However, when I tried to then launch Magic I got a "License Error - unable to access license data". Those may not be the exact words, but this was not the DB initialization error of the previous install. I tried the dll shuffle to no avail. I installed on another workstation and did not enter my license info but simply tried to launch Magic expecting to see the demo application. No way past the license error. (additional inf. both these machines access a V5.7 version of Magic from an NT server.. conflicts??) Reboots were tried as well... First, why would the two results be different? Second, what can I do about the second situation? I hope it is something simple and I was just too tired to see it, but a simple install from the cd should probably work!! Any help would be greatly appreciated....
