Guest ThomasAJ Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 I think I need to use regsvr32 in syswow64 to register a 32 bit dll: c:\Windows\syswow64\regsvr32.exe "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\MSSoap\Binaries\MSSOAP30.DLL" It says the module failed to load etc. I also tried: regsvr32.exe "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\MSSoap\Binaries\MSSOAP30.DLL" Same error message. I am installing a program that needs MSSOAP30.DLL -- Regards Tom

If you run the command at a command prompt, launch the command prompt by right clicking a shortcut to cmd.exe and selecting "Run as administrator". If the regsvr32 statement is in a program, like a batch file, right click the program and select "Run as administrator". -- Richard Mueller MVP Directory Services Hilltop Lab - http://www.rlmueller.net --
Guest ThomasAJ Posted August 23, 2008 Posted August 23, 2008 Re: Cannot register 32 bit DLL on W2008 I ran the above commands as you said. Same error message every time. I also had the same problem registering another DLL using REGSVR32.EXE. So I tracked down that DLL's installer from the DLL's website and the installer installed the DLL. So the MSSOAP30.DLL is unlikely to be at fault (it currently runs on Server 2003 SP2) and it is almost definitely how I am running REGSVR32.EXE. Yes I am logged on as ADMINISTRATOR (thru TS) and am running CMD.EXE as 'Run as administrator'. -- Regards Tom "Richard Mueller [MVP]" wrote: > Tom Wrote: > > >I think I need to use regsvr32 in syswow64 to register a 32 bit dll: > > c:\Windows\syswow64\regsvr32.exe "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common > > Files\MSSoap\Binaries\MSSOAP30.DLL" > > > > It says the module failed to load etc. > > > > I also tried: > > regsvr32.exe "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common > > Files\MSSoap\Binaries\MSSOAP30.DLL" > > > > Same error message. > > > > I am installing a program that needs MSSOAP30.DLL > > -- > > You need to use "Run as administrator".
