Problem is registering a dll??

[mahesh]

Hello, I created one dll using MFC/ATL/VC++ 6.0/NT 4.0 SP3. I can compile this dll without any error but when i register this dll using regsvr32, I get this error "DllRegisterServer in dllpath failed. Reutrn code was: 0x80040201". Is any body got this problem ?? I tried to register it on 98 and got same error. It gets register on two 98 machines though. Any ideas?? Its not a issue of MFC version b/c I cant register on my development machine. This dll adds extensions to IE. I am using IE 5.01 on all machines. Thanks Mahesh

You can look up the description of this error with the Error Lookup util (Start-Programs-MSVC 6-MSVC Tools-Error Lookup. That error is "An event was unable to invoke any of the subscribers." Dunno if that helps, but it's a start. ;)

Hi if it registers on some machines but not others I guess that there is at least 1 DLL missing on the failing machine. Use the Depend tool os Visual Studio to find out what DLLs you need exactly Kurt
