LJ-Sec worked fine on my old machine, but I have no luck running it on the new Vista machine. When I try to run it, it throws errors galore. (I have installed Net.Framework 1.1, 3.5 and 2.0 which is part of Vista)

What I get is this:

Strong name check assembly 'C:\Program Files\LJ Sec-Install\LJ-Sec.exe' failed. The file was changed or doesn't have the right key signature.

An exception error was caused.

process=ID=0xff4 (4084)
thread-ID=oxff8 (4088)

debugger error code 0x2(2)
cordbg.exe!a 0xff4

Any ideas what could be the problem? Maybe a language compatibility issue (I have the German versions of Net.Framework)?

This might be because your Vista is 64-bit (as mentioned in this post. ) I'll check into it.

Nah. I've got the 32-bit version. But I wouldn't be surprised if it's Vista that acts up. Stupid OS is stupid. :/

No problem. :)

Hi, I keep getting the following error:

The configuration file cannot be opened for writing!
Could not find apart of the path 'C:\Program Files\LJ-SecInstall\Configurations\Default.ljc'

I'm using version 0.72 and Windows XP. There's no Configurations folder in the LJ-SecInstall folder. Can anyone explain what this error is?

Yeah, I got that too. Looks like soundwave106 needs to test the program using a pristine pure virtual machine with no special directories pre-created. I make that sort of error all the time -- test that a program works on my machine, deploy it to users, and then discover that it requires a D:\ drive or a C:\Logging directory or a copy of a particular DLL or whatever. Using a virtual machine, which you can "rewind" back to pure, just-installed condition before each test, is a useful habit to get into.

It's something that I definitely want to do when I get some time -- I've been pretty buried in other things. If enough people are out of the office on Friday and the workload is slow, maybe I can run a test then. :)

I forgot to mention in my comment above: I'm bulk deleting entries from my LJ. They're gone, but in the calendar year pages, they still appear as numbers under the month they were posted in. Is this a glitch or are those numbers irremovable from the calendar?

Thanks for your help!

Hmm, I thought .72 got rid of the "configuration file could not be opened" error. I'll have to check into that when I get back from vacation.

I'll check the calendar issue too but that sounds like a bug on LJ's end.

I am getting the following error when I attempt to open LJ-Sec after install (and I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling it more than once):

( ... )

This is actually a .NET framework installation issue, and I see that more than one person has it.

If the file actually exists, try opening a command window and typing in the following:

regsvr32 "c:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\mscorwks.dll"

Another option is to use the system file checker to reload corrupt DLLs. At the command prompt, type:

sfc /scannow

A final option recommended if this fails is to uninstall, and then reinstall the .NET 2.0 framework.
