The xls files in
RSrv250_pl2
are quite outdated. RAndFriends suppresses installation of these files.
Please remove the xls directory in the (D)COM directory
and then install RExcelInstaller from CRAN and run
RExcelInstall.
Or just run RAndFriends again after removing the xls directory under
(D)COM Server.

Hi Erich,
I installed RSrv250_pl2 and got the same error message as before, namely:
C\Windows\System32\stdole2.tlb
Unable to register the type library: RegisterTypeLib failed; code 0x8002801C.
Error accessing the OLE registry.
It also complained that it could not find an Excel version compatible with RExcel despite the fact that I was using Excel 2007.
I manually installed RExcel and also installed rcom.
Most of the examples worked but I had no luck getting the "Graphics with Sliders" example to work.
BTW,
the error message from uninstaling R(D)Com i.e.:
Runtime Error (at 11:90)
Internal Error. Cannot call "ISCOMPENENTSELECTED" function during uninstall.
also happens on XP so this is not a vista issue.
Regards
Wayne

Wayne,
can you try using just running this installer
http://rcom.univie.ac.at/download/devel/RSrv250_pl2.exe
and see if you get the problems.
Then we know a little better where to locate the issues.

Hi Erich and fellow rcom users,
I have been doing some testing of the new RAndFriends including the new R 2.7.0 (RAndFriendsSetup2070V20.exe).
I get the folowing error message when trying to install using Vista Ultimate
edition:
C\Windows\System32\stdole2.tlb
Unable to register the type library: RegisterTypeLib failed; code 0x8002801C.
Error accessing the OLE registry.
I'm fairly sure the error message relates to the R(D)Com part of the installation.
However, if I continue installation by choosing to ignore this message then the installation seems to work fine!
Following a brief websearch I have found a couple of other cases reported where the same error occurs.
The file "stdole2.tlb" relates to visual basic.
I think the problem relates to the Inno setup installation trying to overwrite the
"C\Windows\System32\stdole2.tlb" where the file already exists,
see http://www.smurphy.co.uk/board/viewtopic.php?t=1465 and hence why choosing ignore works fine.
I did indeed find that "C\Windows\System32\stdole2.tlb" was already present on
my machine.
The following article discusses the same error message when using Inno Setup: http://www.vbforums.com/archive/index.php/t-468770.html
and points to a solution.
I did get another error message when uninstalling R(D)Com server,namely:
Runtime Error (at 11:90)
Internal Error. Cannot call "ISCOMPENENTSELECTED" function during uninstall.
but installation seemed to work fine despite this message.
Regards,
Wayne
