msgbox on startup

[Klae]

Hi,

I get a message when a user starts up groupwise that has no writing in it and jas just an OK button on it. How do I get rid of it? Klae

I had this happen on one of our boxes once. It was a problem with one of the dlls, I think it was the language resource but I can't be sure. Reinstalling Groupwise fixed the problem.

I'm getting that,

A reinstall hasn't worked. I'm installing in the UK and I think has something to do with m*US.dll and I need m*UK.dll but Other users seem to be using the US dlls and have successfully running the UK regional settings. How do i resolve this?

Thanks

Klae

Klae,

Check that the default registry setting in
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Novell\GroupWise\Interface Language
is set to US

It is set to US.

The funny thing is this happens when we restore an image from another Hard drive and then install GW5.5 SP2. The overall task being achieved is a complete rebuild of the PC. 50% of the time we do not get this error and 50% of the time we do. We don't know what we do to break it but a reload of the image nearly always fixes it. We know that the groupwise really should be in the image but we never have time to redo the image. I was wondering if anyone has come across this error in the first thread before. So far thanks for thanks johncurtis and if you have any more ideas throw them in as we cannot see any reason why it happens. Thanks Klae

Klae,

Firstly, there are newer versions of Groupwise available. We use 5.5.4 which we find very stable. Installing sp4 might solve your problems.

I still think that the message your getting is either a dll problem or a registry problem. Rather than reloading your image on a problem machine, try uninstalling GW, running the Groupwise Cleaning Agent (

http://support.novell.com/servlet/filedownload/pub/gwca55us.exe)

then reinstalling.

I guess you should really bite the bullet and redo your image from an installation that runs OK.

Maybe someone else can chip in with some other ideas?

I fixed the problem by setting my regional settings from UK to US, opening up groupwise (successfully), closing down groupwise, changing the regional settings back from US to UK. Now groupwise acts OK. Klae
