Fatal Error when using ADODB in VB6 on Windows Server 2003 SP2
- by m.edmondson
We've got a legacy app (VB6) which works fine on an old Windows Server 2003 box and has been for many years. Recently we've had to move it to a different physical location and in doing this we cloned the box with virtualisation and placed it elsewhere.
In theory these two environments should be identical.
On the new box however the app falls over when calling the RecordCount method of an ADODB.Recordset. I should say that I can successfully read the ADODB.RecordSet.Properties.Count property with no problem on the line before.
The event viewer reports the following:
Event Type: Error Event Source: Application Error Event
Category: (100) Event ID: 1000 Date: 28/09/2012 Time: 11:15:27
User: N/A Computer: APP01 Description: Faulting application
Control.exe, version 1.0.0.6, faulting module ntdll.dll,
version 5.2.3790.4789, fault address 0x0002c6e4.
I can only imagine there is something wrong with using ADODB within a virtualised environment. Any ideas?
