registration error automation error

[completelyhis]

The other day I started getting error dialogue windows at HS startup, and MCSTemp stopped working. the title of the dialogue was "registration error automation error" and the content of hte dialogue was:
invalid access to memory location

Then I click OK, and I get this one, regarding MCSTemp:

the instruction at "x0x7c911f6c" referenced meory at "0x00000064". The memeory could not be "read".
click on ok to terminate the program
click on cancel to debug the program

here's some stuff from the startup log:

Any ideas?
I was using version 5.6.0.3 and tried downloading the 5.6.9, but it didn't change anything.

You have the same error on both mcsTemperature and mcsMovement. mcsMovement is the simplier plugin. During initializtion is uses only hs methods other than ADODB for the database, Scripting.Dictionary, and ScriptControl. The database is MDAC 2.6 or later. Dictionary is part of Windows Scripting Host version 5.6. ScriptControl is also a Microsoft download.

You can try reinstalling these, but my guess is that you have something else going on

wow. those are a lot of big words. :-)

I put in a help ticket, because I noticed some of my own basic scripts are not even working properly. It also had affected HSTV and Maestro.

I'll let you know what the result is.

Thanks,

Ian

per the instructions in the help ticket response, i did a repair of the hs install, and then a repair of the .net framework. after rebooting the problem went away.

Thank you,

Ian
