OK,
So just re-did the clean out and re-install on my other machine (same OS
build, etc, etc, etc)
Full "audit" follows
Control Panel -> Add / Remove Software -> Remove LDView 3.0
Control Panel -> Add / Remove Software -> LPub
Control Panel -> Add / Remove Software -> LPub 2.4.8
Delete LDView, LPub and LPub2 sub-dirs from c:\lego\cadtools
Delete LPUB and Travis Cobbs registry entries
Delete LPub from Programs menu registry entry
(Only remaining keys/values in registry relating to LPub or LDView are in
MRU lists)
(Agent Ransack shows no trace of LPub or LDView on the file system)
Reboot
Install LDView-3000.exe (downloaded direct from sourceforge)
to C:\Lego\CadTools\LDView
no start menu
no screen saver
Launch on install
select LDraw dir (C:\Lego\CadTools\LDraw)
create LPub preference set
set background to orange
Open m6459.ldr in MLCad
update parts
save
Install LPub_2_4_8_0_setup.exe
to C:\Lego\CadTools\LPub2
Launch on install
grant LPub.exe permission to launch other apps in ZoneAlarm
select LDraw dir (C:\Lego\CadTools\LDraw)
select L3P.exe (C:\Lego\CadTools\l3p\L3P.EXE) [L3P v1.3 20010120 (C)
1998-2001]
click on Rendered tab
click on LDView button
select C:\Lego\CadTools\LDView\LDView.exe and click Open button
change drop-down to LDView.exe
open m6459.ldr
generate -> complete model
Error: "copy: failed to open LPub\LDraw\m6459.ldr for writing."
Click OK
grant LPub.exe permission to launch cmd.exe in ZoneAlarm
Progress Status dialog appears
Error: "get_camera_distance failed to open LPub\POV\m6459.pov"
Click OK
Progress Status dialog removes itself
...\LDview\LPub\Images\m6459.png is created - but is a 4Kb file of orange
LPub sub-dir contains sub-dirs of HTML, Images, Layout, LDraw, Parts and
POV (all empty except for png in Images)
delete Images\m6459.png
generate -> complete model
Progress Status dialog appears
Progress Status dialog removes itself
...\LDview\LPub\Images\m6459.png is created - NOW 78Kb of a truck on an
orange background (also have 273Kb pov file)
delete pov and png file
Select "Generate --> CSIs, PLIs and BOM"
Progress Status dialog appears
in LPub/Ldraw one ldr and three dat files appear
in LPub/POV three pov files appear
in LPub/Images one 28Kb png appears
Error: Access violation at address 00443B44 in moudle 'LPub.exe'. Read of
address 01744710
Click OK
Progress status dialog is still shown, cannot be dismissed by either Pause
or Cancel buttons
All LPub menus are greyed out
Have to terminate LPub from the X button (top right)
So what changed - I *THINK* I was offered the option to remove some DLL's
and this time I choose to remove them when uninstalling LPub. So it may be
that LPub2 is picking up old (VB?) dll's
But its still broken, just differently now :-(
