can't find dependences dlls at runtime

Post by michel.vidailhet »

Hi,

I have some troubles running openvibe under windows XP.
The project compilated without problem, but when I try to run the exes, I have error messages on dlls that are prensent in the dependences dir :
- acquisition server : "libglqde-2.0-à.dll"
- designer dynamic : "libexpat.dll"

I tryed to reslove this by copying all the dll in the dependences directory in the bin folder (I now it's ugly, but worth the try), but then the ogre window does not list any renderer, even if I copy the Plugins.cfg from ogre directory which is needed to set correctly the renderers.

Did I miss something during the installation process ?

Hello michel.vidailhet and welcome on this board.

Better than running the .exe files directly, you should use the .cmd scripts that come on the topmost dist folder. They will take care of updating your PATH environment in order to find the dependencies.

Hope this helps,
Yann

Thanks a lot,

seems to get the dependences now.
But I have another error running the .cmd :
entry point libiconv_set_relocation_prefix is not found in the link library iconv.dll
This dll is in dependences/gtk/bin
Is there a way to fix this ?

michel.vidailhet,

do you have another version of GTK installed that could interfer with the version bundled with OpenViBE ?
also, can you give me more information about your configuration (hardware, CPU, OS version)

Best regards,
Yann

I manually copied the gtk folder in the bin folder and it worked! I previously installed gtk and glade on my computer but uninstalled it after. Maybe the problems comes from this...

Thank you for your help
