VBA is not installed when a reboot is required
Applies to
PcVue from versions 10 to
- PcVue 11 (11.0.06037)
- PcVue 11.1 (11.1.02031)
FrontVue until
- FrontVue 11 (11.0.06019)
- FrontVue 11.1 (11.1.02003)
This post describes a possible cause of the non installation of VBA: when a reboot is required, at the end of main installation, VBA is not installed, even if the choice is made to not restart the computer.
After an installation, if you note that VBA is not installed, and if the main installation required a reboot, you are in this case (even if you did not chose to reboot).
This behavior is due to a Windows Installer restriction.
How to install VBA in such a case:
1 - Restart the computer
2 - Uninstall PcVue
3 - Reinstall PcVue
This solution will be suffiscient most of the time.
The reboot is generally required by the installation of Sentinel driver, the second time you install PcVue, the Sentinel driver will be already installed, so the reboot will be no longer necessary, and VBA will be installed.
If it does not work, the only way is to launch PcVue installation with SvSetup.exe and the parameter REBOOT=ReallySuppress.
Note:
This behaviour happens only during first installation, when VBA is not already installed
To install a later version, it is strongly advised to ugrade the current installed version (without uninstalling it), to avoid to uninstall / reinstall VBA.
Note:
A "correction" has been integrated, the request for reboot has been postponed, from PcVue installation to installation start screen.
This correction will work only if you launch PcVue installation normally (via setup.exe located at the root of the installation package).
