DOCUMENT:Q193609 05-MAY-1999 [iis] TITLE :Visual Basic 5.0 Run-time DLL Has Read-only Attribute PRODUCT :Internet Information Server PROD/VER:WINNT:4.0 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS: ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Internet Information Server 4.0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SYMPTOMS ======== Under some conditions, during the installation of the Windows NT 4.0 Option Pack, the Visual Basic 5.0 run-time dynamic link library (DLL) Msvbvm50.dll is marked with the read-only file attribute. This causes errors when you run any setup program created by the Visual Basic Setup Wizard. In some cases, it will cause an error with components created by Visual Basic that are downloaded into a browser. CAUSE ===== This behavior is by design. RESOLUTION ========== To solve this problem, remove the read-only attribute from the Msvbvm50.dll file on the server. ====================================================================== Keywords : Technology : kbiisSearch kbiis400 Version : WINNT:4.0 Issue type : kbprb ============================================================================= THE INFORMATION PROVIDED IN THE MICROSOFT KNOWLEDGE BASE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND.
