Plug-in newbie... by Tobiaz on 10-22-2005 at 09:37 AM

Hi at all...
I've got a problem:
I writed (I didn't write it, I used the sample and chanched it a litte bit... ) a plugin. I've done the Registry settings and copied the "MPPluginVB.dll" to my plugin directory.
But PLUS! doesn't use the Sample plugin!

I think, there's an error with the registration of the DLL...
I have to write "regsvr32.exe /s C:\Programme\MessengerPlus! 3\Plugins\mydll.dll". Is that right?

What could be other errors?

I'm from Switzerland. Excuse my bad english!

Thanks

bye

shouldn't it be MPPluginVB

after you type that does it work?

i know with computers without the VB Runtimes you have to type that, but im unsure of why it wouldnt work with the runtimes.


hope that helps.

I have typed that: "regsvr32.exe /s C:\Programme\MessengerPlus! 3\Plugins\MPPluginVB.dll"

I only write a "Syntax" with mydll.dll

But it doesn't work...


Thanks for helping, Ash_

Try removing the /s parametr and tell us what it says...
Also, make sure you restart msn after installing your plugin :)

RE: Plug-in newbie... by Tobiaz on 10-22-2005 at 10:15 AM

It says: LoadLibary (C:\Programme\MessengerPlus!) fehlgeschlagen - Das angegebene Modul wurde nicht gefunden.

In English: LoadLibary (C:\Programme\MessengerPlus!) failded - The indicated module was not found

What does that mean? How can I repear it?

theres a space, "Messenger Plus! 3" not "MessengerPlus! 3"

regsvr32 doesn't accept paths with spaces in it...
try putting the whole filename between "", and if that doesn't work, open a command-prompt, go to the path where the plugin is, and execute it there without the path :)

As TB Mentions:

code:
regsvr32.exe /s "C:\Programme\MessengerPlus! 3\Plugins\MPPluginVB.dll"
Should do the trick....

Click start -> run, type cmd and hit enter, then use DOS commands (like cd) to go to the directory the dll is in. then type regsvr32 thedll.dll
