I had to re-install my Delphi 6 recently and am getting some strange errors. This one has me stumped. Exception EDBEngineError in module Application.exe at 000F89B2. Cannot load driver. What driver is not loading? Anybody seen this one before? Hope somebody can point me in the right direction.

If it happens when you run an app then it likely means the driver you are trying to use. The only time I have encountered this message is when trying to use a driver that is not installed. -- Bill Todd (TeamB) Back to top Keith Wright Guest Posted: Sat Mar 10, 2007 1:58 am    Post subject: Re: Strange BDE Error? Bill, I don't know what driver it is looking for because I don't specifically call any external drivers in my app. I don't know if this helps or not, but if I put a breakpoint in and step through as the App is being built the error occurs when it gets to my DataModules everytime. The forms all seem OK but when it gets to the data then it crashes, that is why I thought it was something to do with the BDE. I have re-installed the BDE with the latest version off the Borland site but the error still occurs. I even tried playing around with the uses in the DataModule but it still crashes. Any other ideas?

What database are you using. The driver is the code that handles the connection to a specific database. -- Bill Todd (TeamB) Back to top Keith Wright Guest Posted: Sat Mar 10, 2007 2:46 am    Post subject: Re: Strange BDE Error? All Paradox tables. I just clicked on the BDEAdministrator to check my settings and the following error came up: Exception EDBEngine in module bdeadmin.exe at 00054F92. Cannot find Engine configuration file. This is the first time I have seen this but I am wondering if my idapi32.cfg file is corrupt? When I re-installed everything I just copied the old idapi32.cfg file to save time and it referenced a bunch of different databases and used some ODBC drivers which I have not re-installed yet??? (pause to try something...) OK decided to try rebuilding my Aliases from scratch and so far they all seem to be working without errors. I had about 50 different Aliases in my BDE and so far every app that I have tried with the re-built Aliases is working OK. Thanks so much for your help, I think that may have solved it!

Keith, Have you either purchased the final version of, or tried the beta version of Elevate DB (commonly known as EDB) by Elevate Software? The error message you have written doesn't say "BDE" but rather "EDB" + Engine. There is an EDBEngine component in Elevate DB. Could this be the cause of your error? -- Regards, Jan Ferguson Keith Wright wrote: Quote: I had to re-install my Delphi 6 recently and am getting some strange errors. This one has me stumped.

Keith CANADA Maybe you already solved the problem. I had the same problem just yeasterday (Apr 13). I have instaled in the same computer Delphi 7, Delphi 2006 and WordPerfect Office 12, all of them install the BDE. For some reazon two copies of the BDE were installed in diferent directories (I do not use the default directories) and that was causing a conflict, maybe the IDE used one copy while other programs used the other. I recomend that you use find file to search for idapi*.dll and find if they are several copies of the BDE in your machine. If it is the case try to backup and erase one of them and see if your programs are still working. If they report a missing BDE, restore the backup and try the same (backup and erase) with the other copy of the BDE. Hope this help.
