If I use the "Register Addin" from the build menu in VS .NET 2003, I can get my addin to work just fine on my end, however when trying to use the installer, it fails with the error "An error occurred during the add-in registration process." on my development machine and any other machine I try to use. Did I miss a step somewhere? The entire error message is below.

I could really use some help with this one. I've been through the installation documentation 4 times now, and everything is set correctly. Anyone?

So after a little more investigation it seems that this error is coming from the registration of the shim using regsvr32. Since figuring out why THAT isn't working would require knowing C++, I'm basically stuck. Still need help here...

And...Having adjusted the installer to use adxloader.dll and I get The 'DllRegister' function failed during execution (HRESULT = -2147024894). This is not quite the same error that the guy who reported the PerfCounters error was getting, as his HResult was -2147024891. Please tell me what I have to do to get my addin to install. I don't care if I have to write my own installer for it, I just need to know what I have to do.

Hi Greg.

Probably you missed some dependent assemnlies. Please check your setup project using the following document:

Hi Sergey -

I have been through the deployment guide several times. I looked at the installer dll and due to that I tried using regsvr32 to register the shim and it failed. Am I incorrect that the shim should register using regsvr32?

I just tried following the directions in the deployment guide to create a new setup project and I'm getting the same error still. There are no extra dependencies to add since it's just using the normal Outlook DLLs and the Add-in Express DLLs to do its thing and they're all included in the setup projects. I have the Professional version of Add-in Express, purchased ~2 months ago. Can I send in my project and have you look at it?

Hello,

Was this resolved? I am getting this error once again.

I thought I had it solved a while back but now, nothing will get the adxloader loaded. DllRegister() and DllUnRegister() return -2147024894.

I believe that is file not found, which files do DllRegister access?

Thanks.

Hi Ralph.

The DllRegister function doesn't access any files. It just registers the add-in. Can I look at your project?
