Product packaging error message

[vivek_kaushal]

Hi Guys
I am testing product packaging in XE and I have defined the software master and validated it successfully without any problems. Now when I am trying to Master CD then I am getting error message on "create database" step. The error message("unable to create access file") is in pdf R9640F.
I have verified that
1. Access 2000 is installed on workstation. The ODBC system datasource "OneWorld Product Packaging" is defined and it is pointing to c:\temp\master\jdeb7.mdb".
2. The system variables TEMP and TMP are pointing to C:\Temp folder.
3. Database datasource "OneWorld Product Packaging" exists in the application.
4. I have rebooted workstations multiple times and redefined software master mutiple times, but same problem.
5. The package name and Software master name are same including case.
6. I am using the default software template (09)?

Any suggestions are welcome?

Thanks

Check the source code for CreateAccessDB in file b9600421.c.
Seems that you need a specific version of DAO installed.
Either 3.5 or 3.6 (try both).
I think we found the correct version on the Visual Studio CD.

Hi Patrick,
Wonderful, it worked. I installed Visual C++ and service pack 5 ( which installed DAO 3.6 authotically) and ran "master CD" row exit again and this time it Access database was created without any problems.

Thanks for all your help.
