I am trying to install an app that uses dotnet 1.1 in Vista (release),
but am warned there is a "compatibility" issue. I hae seen some mention
of problems with one beta, but is it still a problem> How to get around
it?
Martin.
 
Martin,

An application from 1.1 should run on any newer version from dotNet.
Unluckely there are some bugs about that from version 1.1 to 2.0, I don't
know if that is fixes.

To use however Visual Studio 2003 you need the framework 1.1, just because
that uses the parts of that framework and is unable to use the parts from
framework 2.0

I am trying to install a database program to access the program of the
Rotterdam Film Festival (I need to work on it).

The program (Fiona) needs .Net framework 1.1.

When I try to install Fiona it asks me to install .Net 1.1, but that
gives me this :

Download updates for Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This version of Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 is known to have
compatibility issues with the version of Windows you are running. This
program was created by Microsoft Corporation.
Follow this link to get software updates to resolve this problem.

I foillow the link and it offers me Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1
Service Pack 1 from AUgust 2004... which doesn't help.

I installed anyway, but when I start Fion a it starts trying to
download an update and then hangs with a "timeout message todo" error
and I have to go to task manager to close Fiona.

I also tried starting in XP SP2 mode, but that doesn't help.

I also read and applied
http://blogs.msdn.com/astebner/archive/2006/07/06/658484.aspx. No go...

Rgds

Martin.

in your app config.

It's not my app... I'm just a user (who also has Vista).

I shall pass this on to the relevant authority and hope they can add
it. Problem is that the app updates itself and the original doesn't get
the update done under Vista, so we'll need a new original. :(

Catch 22?

How true :)

Hello MartinC,

Does your app have config?
Create or edit <AppExe>.exe.config and add that into <configuration> section

Does your app have config?

No, only a settings.xml.

I could make an extra file and try it...

Now I get an "error reading program setting" (in Dutch, so I'm not sure
what the English message would be).

Just to check I now want to edit the file in Notepad... but Notepad
can't find it? Very strange.

I then tried to run the program updater on its own but got:

Application has generated an exception that could not be handled.
Process id=0xd9c (3484), Thread id=0x1370 (4976).
Click OK to terminate
Click CANCEL to debug

Then I get:

Registered JIT debugger not available.

AHem... it didn't until I rebooted. Now the app is running just fine -
I just have that irritating icon in the system tray - security alert.

Now all I need is a driver for my Magicolor printer and I can switch
OS,

it off on my station

STrange thing is that I turned it off - got the warning, but the ap
didn''t actually update itself until after a reboot. Then it updated
and ther ap worked. However after a following reboot the UAC was
enabled again, but the ap kept working, so it looks as if it is the
update routine that is not working.

Sorry to interrupt, but I am also contemplating moving to Vista and I
have Magicolor 2300L laser printer. Is this the printer you have?
Have you learned any more information about drivers for Vista?

Thanks,

Chris

I have a 2300DL and there are no Vista drivers (yet).

I have also discovered thatPinnacle Studio 10 and Dragon Naturally
Speaking 9 also do not install under Vista.

Thanks for the response. I sent an e-mail to Minolta's tech support
asking about Vista drivers. I don't know if I'll get a response, but I
let you know if I do.

I also installed .Net 1.1 on Vista, and it seems to work. But after a
while I found in the "Event Viewer | Windows Logs | Application" some
Warnings (Source: MsiInstaller, EventID: 1030)
(Warning description:) -----------
Product: Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1.
The application tried to install a more recent version of the
protected Windows file
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\sbs_wminet_utils.dll.
[and also the same Warning for the following files:]
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\sbs_wminet_utils.dll.

C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\sbs_system.enterpriseservices.dll.

You may need to update your operating system for this application to
work correctly.

Anyone knows if this is ok?

Thanks,
