Yes, that should handle most cases. My guess is that the import library is in the `lib` subdirectory, while the DLL is in the same directory as the `lua` executable. So the install script found the DLL but not the import library and continued without warning. The OP should have specified a `/LIB` option. On the other hand, the install script could have caught this by removing *.dll and *.a from `variables.LUA_LIB_NAMES` when using Visual C. > > Thijs Philipp ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Comprehensive Server Monitoring with Site24x7.
