ActiveSync error.
-
When I build a program using EVC+ 4.0 and try to download it to my iPAQ PocketPC, I get the following message: The Microsoft ActiveSync reported the following error: Unable to load device side components. Please check server configuration settings. Using Tools/Configure Platform Manager to check the settings, I found that using ActiveSync as Transport and as StartUp Server has no settings. The ActiveSync is working well. I have a good conection and I can syncronize with my desktop. I've tried all that is 'reasonable': update ActiveSync to the lastest version, install the latest EVC++ SP, Hard Reset the iPAQ,.. but the problem still persists. Any help? Tanks.

If this device uses Pocket PC 2000 or Pocket PC 2002, you must use eVC 3.0 for debugging and select "Pocket PC" or "Pocket PC 2002" as the device type. Windows CE 4.0 has a newer debugging API which doesn't work with the older devices and vice-versa. The device-side components for CE 4.x devices (such as Pocket PC 2003) won't work on CE 3.0 devices such as the earlier Pocket PCs. If you're connected over a serial or USB link, try using the PPP transport. This is slightly more efficient than the TCP/IP or ActiveSync transports anyway. If this works, you may have a TCP/IP configuration problem. I recently found that having the Microsoft Loopback Adapter installed as well as a regular TCP/IP network connection caused me problems with Platform Manager. If you're going to use the Loopback Adapter you must configure it to use an entirely different network from your normal network connection. Otherwise packets directed at the handheld seem to get routed via the Loopback Adapter. Stability. What an interesting concept. -- Chris Maunder
