LISP won't run on 1 seat out of 4

[Liamnacuac]

thats what I would recommend, with 2010 so close to being released, why switch to 09 and be stuck with all the issues that were fixed with 2010 for a whole year. Besides the additional editing capabilities of hatch in 2010 are awesome.


Speaking of skipping '09 (http://forums.augi.com/showpost.php?p=951008&postcount=4),,
I have all the '09 updates for our office supply of '06. I have loaded '09 four times, and have experienced four different sets of problems, except for the ribbon not loading (it never wants to load. I thought the problem was a .cui file, but that didn't seem to fix it on the latest install).

The problem I am experiencing now, is after installing '09, loading ars2009sp20, setting file paths, and assuring the same menus are loaded and in the same order, I have a .lsp routine that will not work on this one machine. I am probably missing something in my install (no, I didn't use a deployment, I installed from the disk). But I can't figure out how a lisp routine will run on three seats of '09, but not another?

Any ideas, or are there too many variables to assess?

...I have a .lsp routine that will not work on this one machine.

Virtually impossible to diagnose, short of guessing.

Load the lisp file in the VLIDE and put a breakpoint near the top of the code (or in an area that you know is being executed), then load the code (Ctrl+Alt+E), then start stepping through the code using F8 until it crashes.

Or you can skip the breakpoint, load the code, and then when it crashes, check out the Error Trace (Ctrl+Shift+R)

If you are not sure what the error is, post back.

this is completely ridiculous and pointless if you don't use vla, but see if the vl.arx file is loaded in your drawing.
