Due to some problems installing a developed Outlook-plugin on selected workstations, I would like to try to update ADX on my development server from the 5.0.2 to the 5.0.3 version (2009 versions).

The README file indicates that the previous version should be uninstalled. However the only item to uninstall from the control panel is the MAPI accessor - how do I correctly uninstall the 5.0.2 version? If I just uninstall the MAPI accessor and install the 5.0.3 version on top, I get an error:

Could not load file or assembly 'AddinExpress.MSO.2005, Version=5.3.2030.2005, 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)

Best regards,
Søren

Hi Søren.

Please try to run the following command line on your PC:
msiexec.exe /x {CB3CB52F-6F12-42FD-A840-4C55EC2CA0B8}

Strange; does not work either, gives the error message "This action is only valid for products that are currently installed". So it seems as if the installation is not registered somehow. I also cannot find the package in the registry under Windows Installer. It was installed by someone else than me so I'm not sure whether there were a problem during installation.

I'll probably go for a reinstall of the workstation instead; it could also do with an upgrade from XP to Win 7 and probably I'll upgrade to ADX2010.

Thanks for the answer,

BR/Søren

It means that the product is not installed on the PC.
Please try to search for Add-in Express libraries in the GAC (Global Assembly Cache). And if they are in the GAC, you need to remove/uninstall them manually. Then you can try to install the product again.

Something must have gone wrong on the workstation as all the files are present beneath Program Files.

However I've set up a new Win7/VS2010 based workstation. On this, I've installed the 5.0.3-version of ADX .Net. But when I build my project (after updating the solution from 2008 to 2010), I get these errors:

- Could not resolve this reference. Could not locate the assembly "AddinExpress.OL.2005". Check to make sure the assembly exists on disk. If this reference is required by your code, you may get compilation errors.

- The referenced component 'AddinExpress.OL.2005' could not be found.

When I look in the ADX/bin directory, I can only see the AddinExpress.OL.2005.xml file, no .dll files. When I check the old workstation (with 5.0.2 installed), the .dll files are present.

What am I missing here?
