D7 Enterprise 11.04 install

edited April 2009 in DADE
I have updated to 11.04 in advance of some new work involving DADE. When I
select the Data Tab and the menu item DataSettings, Delphi closes! No
warnings, no request to Save, just exits!

There was an inadvertent install of a trial version; however, I uninstalled
that in advance of installing the update. Can you give me some guidance on
troubleshooting this? My steps are:

New Application
Report component (btw, it takes 10 seconds for this to instantiate!)
Data Tab
Select Data Settings (Delphi aborts)

Thanks!

Sher

    Update to earlier post: I uninstalled using a document from you for corrupt
    install cleanup and reinstalled version 11.01 and everything works. I think
    there is a bug in 11.04?

    thanks,

    Hi Sher,

    Did you try reinstalling RB 11.04 after you did a corrupt install cleanup?
    Once you do, try deleting the RBuilder.ini file located in the
    \AppData\Local\RBuilder\... directory and see if that helps.

    In my testing I was unable to recreate the issue and the designer loaded in
    less than a second. What type of printer are you using? Is it on a
    network?

    Hi Nico!

    Thanks for the prompt reply--I had to get an update to a current report
    done before I could try again. You were right! I renamed the .ini and
    reinstalled 11.04 and it works fine.

    I did notice, however, that the update to daADO.pas method
    ValidDatabaseTypes did not come through. As a reminder, this was a change
    per your 12/02/08 email which added dtPostgreSQL to the Result list. I'll
    just make the change here but if you could flag for the next release that
    would be great!

    Also, I changed my default printer to a non-network printer and the
    component instantiates very fast now. Thanks for the hint and I'll have our
    people look at the printer setup.

    Thanks Sher,

    I'll make sure the PostgreSQL fix is added for the next release.

    Hi Sher,

    I just checked my installation of RB for Delphi 7 and our master file and
    the fix for daADO was present. Are you certain you are using the latest
    (11.04) source?
