This may not be a fault of D7 UPdate, but this is the only NG I can see
thats appropriate.

I just purchased a new Laptop OS=XP.

Spent a day installing, and installed D6 EA D7 EA D8 EA.

Then applied the D7 Service Pack.

I just did standard installs with none of my cpmponents added.

Weh I start D6, or D7 I get lots of messages

Quote:


Cant load package .......
Registration procedure in Package ...
Raised exception Invalid Action Registration


and these packages dont get installed. I also note that in D7 on the Tools
Menu Item many items are missing. I also note that in the Tools-Environment
form Many tabs are missing from the Tabbed NB, including Library. THerefore
there are no search patchs in D7 and none of my code will compile.

So where the hell do I go to clean up this mess ? What an absoulte mess. How
could this problem have arisien ?

Any help appreciated,

Tony.

I'd start with the registry and make sure that the paths to the packages
for the respective IDE are correct. If you have $(Delphi) defined make
sure that it's pointing to the correct location for the respective
build. Another thing you could try is to rename the "Known IDE
Packages" and "Known Packages" keys, restart the IDE (which I belive
will recreate these keys) then start adding packages back to find out
which package is causing the problem.

Please make sure you backup at least your Delphi registry keys before
messing around with the registry.

OK Thanks Steve.

What I wound up doing was to Remove D6 and D7 then just add in D7 which is
now going properly.

There is still an issue with the Updater though in relation to Interbase
Express components, but Il take that up on the appropriate group.

Thanks for your help,

Tony
