Unable to load CTLIB.DLL (revisited)

[bmarinel]

Hi all,

I created a heavily used application (in Delphi 7) that uses the Visoco dbExpress driver for Sybase. On a rare occasion, a user gets the 'Unable to load CTLIB.DLL' error when trying to start the application. I even received it once myself. I had to reinstall Sybase to get the application working again. Now, as we all know, there is no such file as CTLIB.DLL. The Sybase library is actually called libct.dll. The only place that there is a reference to it is that the TSQLConnection.VendorLib property is set to CTLIB.DLL.

So, does anyone know what happens that causes the dbExpress driver to have a problem loading the vendor library? And, is there a fix?

Thanks,

Bill

Will, I found out that the problem was a Sybase issue, it had nothing to do with dbExpress.

HI,

What Sybase do you use?
