> The Dependence Walker utility says that MSVCR80.DLL can > not be resolved...
After my original post, I ran Dependence Walker against the dig.exe that runs fine on my Win7 64-bit laptop and inspected the properties of the MSVCR80.DLL library to which it linked. The Details tab showed: Product name Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Product version 8.00.50727.4940 Neither the laptop nor the problem computer had anything related to VS 2005 in the manifest of installed applications. I found this link: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=5638 and installed Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86) onto the problem computer. dig.exe still wouldn't run. However, the installation of this package then apparently triggered Windows Update a short time later to report that the following patches needed to be (re)installed: Security Update for Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package (KB2538242) Security Update for Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package (KB2538243) The second patch (KB2538243) was already present as a result of installing Visual Studio 2010. Voila, dig.exe now works after installing the two patches. I don't know whether to feel happy or suspicious that the newly built Windows box is somehow hobbled from the get-go with all of this hocus-pocus going on... ------ Andris _______________________________________________ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
