Switched computers and cannot get ole object calls to work

Hi Mike,





Please reproduce the problem, pack the entire project suite folder and post it here or send to us directly via the Contact Support form. We will look into this case.

The last computer had this line of code (and it worked):

InternalP3Call = Sys.OleObject("P3Query.QueryUtils", "");



When we loaded up a new computer and tried to use this, the only thing that happened was an exception was thrown listed as:

Type Message Time Priority Has Picture Link

Exception 8:33:27 Normal  

and the remark listed was:

Invalid class string: cannot obtain ClassID.



Is there more setup stuff that needs to be done for the ole object to work properly?

Hi Michael,



Most probably, you need to register the module (P3Query.dll ?) that implements the P3Query object. Depending on the implementation, the command line might be either

regsvr32 P3Query.dll

or

P3Query.exe /regserver



Consult with your developers as for exact details.

Two problems now.

1.) When attempting to register the dll I received an error with the error code 0x80070005.

2.) After a restart now TC is asking for a license again.



What is causing these two issues?

Hi Michael,





I am guessing that you try to register the object on a system with the UAC enabled. In this case, you need to register the object as an administrator. To do this, run a CMD window as an administrator and then execute the registration command in it.

2.) After a restart now TC is asking for a license again.

It seems that you restarted the machine and TestComplete was closed incorrectly. In this case, the license was not released by this instance of the tool and it will be released automatically in some time. You can also restart the Sentinel HASP License Manager service on the machine where the license is activated to release the license instantly.

The first item worked.  I tried what you suggested for the second item, however it is still asking for a license.  Both computers that use the floating license had the required service restarted and the problem still exists.

Hi Michael,





In this case, please try using our Licensing Troubleshooter. If it does not help to find out the cause of the problem, it will help you to collect information to investigate the issue.
