groops.exe Entry Point Not Found #47

Closed Waley04 closed 2 years ago

Waley04 commented 2 years ago

Description

Greetings GROOPS Developers,

I can successfully install the GROOPS software on my Dell Precision 7920 Tower (Intel Xeon Bronze 3204 Processor) workstation. However, when I call the software on the command line, I get "groops.exe Entry Point Not Found" as shown in the attachment.

groopsEntryPointNotFound

You may also refer to the installation log file attached.

groopsInstallation.log

I guess that it could be a problem with my workstation because I do not encounter any problem with GROOPS on my other PC. The attachment below justifies this.

groopsLastestVersion

Some useful system files (such as .dll) are present on the PC. I, therefore, wonder if you could advise me on this matter.

Thanks for your usual support.

Regards,

Waley.

Hi Waley04,

The installation logfile looks fine as far as I can tell. It correctly compiles and links groops and all dependencies. It might be an issue that the .dll files etc. cannot be located by the system itself.

Did you add groops to the environment variables or did you skip any of the optional installations for the newer PC? (windows did you use the same optional installations)

Best regards, Patrick

Hi Patrick,

Many thanks for your prompt response.

Environment variables: groops was added to the path. Optional installations: No optional installations were skipped - all the installation steps were followed on both PCs.

I have had so many installation attempts this month. I can install the software on the workstation but it fails to work using the Windows terminal and Powershell. Rather, it works when I invoke it using Git on Windows, an example is shown below.

I am not sure why.

Hi Waley,

I cannot reproduce the issue but since it works with the git-terminal (I presume that is what you mean with Git) and not with the others that something is broken int he environmental variables or registry of the libraries?

Regards,

Patrick

Hi Patrick,

There is no problem. The most important issue is that I can now use the software with Git.

Thanks with regards,

Waley
