Not able to run the VC++ 2005 exe in remote machine.

What about the 'infocardapi.dll' cited in the first error message? Does it exist on the target machine?

[jain_MS]

Yes, its existing in windows/system32 folder. Regds jain_MS

You may be right about library versions, then - you may have linked against a different version from those present on the target machine. You said the target machine had VS installed on it. Does it have the same service packs and updates installed as your dev box? [edit] Check out Covean's response below - he sounds as if he has a better handle on this. [/edit]

This problem often occurs if you try to use an 32 bit dll in an 64 bit app or the other way around. So make sure your app and the dll runs both in 32 or 64 bit environment. The second reason for this can be, that the infocardapi.dll itself references a dll that is not installed on the machine. At last: Do not copy dlls like msvcm80.dll instead install the microsoft redistributable package for your type of machine like this.

Yes , my both Dev & remote machine have same service packs. Actually from dev box, while compiling my executables from Dev box, i have made some changes in my project properties, Manifest Tool->Input & Output -> Embed Manifest =NO(i set it as NO, before it was YES). Now that Error is not occuring , but now i am getting new error <b>Could not start the App.exe service on Local computer.

Have you developed a service application? This sounds like an error in your start or control function of your service, that doesn't respond in 30 seconds (if you didn't request more time).

is there any way to request the service to wait more than 30 seconds.. Otherthan doing changes in my program?... Your help much appreciated. Regds Jain_MS

[Covean]

No I do not know a way. I think you have to use SetServiceStatus with SERVICE_START_PENDING and dwCheckPoint, dwWaitHint having valid values. And do this every time you need more time for startup by increasing dwCheckPoint.

just quick read your problem, maybe you having express edition, you need to get release edition of VC++ or get latest .NET framework update and MSVC++ 2008 redistributable update, I experienced same, did that.
