Upgrading to Add-in Express 2009 for Internet Explorer

Hi,

I've upgraded from Add-in Express 2008 for IE - uninstalled the old one, installed the new, copied adxloader.dll to the Loader folder of my project & made sure the associated merge module installer project reflects the new version of adxloader.dll and adxregext.exe.

I then used the new merge module to create a Patch installer (so that users who have our software run can simply run the patch in order to use the Add-in with IE8) but end up with the following error when I run the patch:

AddinExpress.IE.Deployment.AddinDomainAdapter error: the setup has fired an exception.

Application Domain: adxregext.exe
Assembly Full Name: adxregext, Version=5.0.254.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=4416dd98f0861965
Assembly Version: 5.0.254.0
Assembly Build Date: 15/05/2009 14:13:20

Exception Source: mscorlib
Exception Type: System.IO.FileLoadException
Exception Message: Could not load file or assembly 'AddinExpress.IE, Version=4.4.127.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=4416dd98f0861965' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)
Exception Target Site: _GetExportedTypes

Any ideas why I keep getting this error? Do I need to regenerate a new manifest first?

Thanks!

Chris

Hi Chris.

Did you rebuild the add-on after you installed the new version of Add-in Express? As you can see in the error message, the installer still searches for the old version of the Add-in Express library.

Hi Sergey,

Yes, the add-in was recompiled.

There's another problem now too - the error message 'Invalid hook handle' is shown when installing the Addin on Windows XP, after upgrading to IE8.

???

Thanks

Chris

Sergey,

Thanks. Where shall I send it?

A bit more info on the Invalid hook problem....it only occurs on Windows XP, after upgrading to IE8 and when IE is started for the first time e.g. after a reboot.
