638.3Will TeamLinks Library Services run on NT?SCAMP::SMITHNever say never, I always say.Mon Apr 07 1997 22:5211
I'm getting an error (the GPF) like that just attempting
to invoke VTX (V2.7 - TeamLinks Library Services) on two
separate NT (one V3.51, the other V4.0) Systems.

Will this run on NT?

Thanks!

Mike

    in general, yes it does.  (usually v4 these days).
    
    Are you using the winsock transport?  (If not, which)

re: -.1

Bill, I'm using TCP/IP with Windows Sockets.

638.6WELKIN::ADOERFERHi-yo Server, away!Fri Apr 11 1997 19:129
    well, yes, that's what your doing, but to the vtx install, that's not
    an option.  It's either/or.  You can have TCP/IP, and some choices,
    -OR- WinSockets (to the vtx install).
    
    The error you reported is 'typically' a tcp/ip install.
    
    You need to delete that installation and install specifing winsockets
    transport.

638.7TCP/IP using Windows Sockets only option w/TL OfficeSCAMP::SMITHNever say never, I always say.Mon Apr 14 1997 14:2913
re: -.1

Bill, I'm doing a TeamLinks Office Install and only
selecting TeamLinks Library Services to be installed.

My only Network Protocol option is: TCP/IP using
Windows Sockets.

Should I be installing a "stand-alone" VTX product?

    Try the kit at
    http://welkin.shr.dec.com:5010/TLS27_NV.ZIP
    however, you may have to get rid of office .dlls before it works.
    Depending on if it installed any - you didn't want the office part of
    it, right?

638.10Thanks, Bill. I'll try TLS27_NV.ZIPBRAT::16.137.208.216::SmithNever say never, I always say!Thu Apr 24 1997 18:1410
re: -.1

Thanks, Bill.  I'll try that Kit.  Yeah, I didn't need 
TeamLinks Office, only the VTX piece.  Guess doing the 
TeamLinks Installation, but only choosing the Library Services 
portion wasn't such a good plan.  :^(

re: .9

Bill, I finally got around to trying:

http://welkin.shr.dec.com:5010/TLS27_NV.ZIP

When I Unzip it (with WinZip 6.2), it puts
all the files into a directory Disk1.

However, part way through the Setup, it's
looking for files in Disk2, and consequently
bombs-out!

Any suggestions?

Mike

P.S.  The full installation claims it's going
to be 12Mb+!

>When I Unzip it (with WinZip 6.2), it puts

the TLS27_NV kit is for installing TLS *without* the Teamlinks viewers.  If
you're using this kit, you need to make sure that the option "Install viewers"
is *not* checked.  

>P.S.  The full installation claims it's going
>to be 12Mb+! 

if you do want to install the viewers, use the full install kit TLS27.ZIP
available from
HNGOVR::GALPUB$:[VTX$PUBLIC.TLS_V27]TLS27.zip
You'll notice that the full installation does amoount to 12Mb+ but most of that
is for Teamlinks viewers to view non-text files (eg Word docs).

BTW, if you get the following symptoms, then you've got the wrong TLS kit.  This
bug was in the T2.7 field test and was fixed for V2.7:

-ronan
    

        After launching I get a window titled TLS:DASL TRACE  with the
        statement:
         [TLS_DEBUG] LOGFILE not defined using-DslTrace.log    

 after acknowleging that window I get a window stating
    
        A General Protection Fault occurred
        The client will attempt to free...

Thanks, Ronan and Bill!  I'm up and running now!
