.NET program won't run

I tried to test a customer .NET application on a XPe build and received an
error similar to what follows:

Can't find mscorwks.dll in C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322

I searched for the file and found that it was in
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.0.3705 (i.e. a older version)

I searched the web and found an update for:
Microsoft .NET Framework Version 1.1 Redistributable Package.

It's at
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...e3-f589-4842-8157-034d1e7cf3a3&displayLang=en

When I tried to install it it says install .NET disk 1 or something like
that. The website gives no information or indication about needing a disk or
what it even is.

Ouch, this simple stuff is sure made difficult by someone out there.

Please help.

Don,

You must be playing with XPe SP1, right? (and probably have the .Net 1.1 QFE installed there?)

There has been an update for .Net v1.1 in SP2 (Q831558) where the mscorwks.dll goes to \Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322.
I don't think, though, this Q831558 has ever been released for SP1.

I am sorry for misleading info. The Q831558 is the QFE released for SP1:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...d7-c25f-4aef-9a5e-e79ed9549e80&DisplayLang=en. This QFE'ed version of
..Net is what has been picked up for SP2 Repository as well.

So, the point is that since you are using SP1 you may want to install the QFE. Just follow the above link.
 
KM,

Thanks, I think your right, but see below for other upgrade difficulties.

I was working under the assumption that if I installed SP2 for the Windows
Ebedded Studio that my builds would be for Embedded XPe SP2. It appears that
I made a very bad assumption.

Earlier before your message...
I tried to go to MicrosoftUpdate to see if there were any updates but it
told me I must be an administrator to use it. The odd thing is that I was
signed on as the default Administrator for XPe. I must need some component or
something that it can't find.

I just looked at My Computer Info. on XPe and sure enough it is SP1. I'll
try your site to see if I can get anywhere.

KM,

I just checked the component database rev. and it's for SP1. I know I ran
the update for SP2 but I may have ran it in the wrong install sequence order
so I'll re-run it before I attempt to do the update link you sent.

Don,

You will not need that update link for SP2 database (if you build your image using SP2 Repository).

Install it on SP1 Repository only.
 
KM,

I attempted to install the SP2 database again and this time it went ok. I
updated the components, rebuilt and life is good again...

Thanks for your help.

Don

P.S. I originally accidentally clicked on update the database before the SP2
install. It looked like it did something but it was very fast so I think it
bailed but didn't warn me that it won't load without SP2. I should have paid
attention and verified that it was the right rev. after I did the SP2 install
but didn't. My mistake.
