FRx6.7 Service pack issue

Couple of days back, I was trying to apply service pack 9(6.7.0.9111) to my current FRx installation which was at SP5. I have Analytical Accounting Add-in installed as well. I downloaded the SP9 from customer source that has AA Add-in. Ran the setup and it looked to be going smoothly until the below error surfaced in the end.

“ The form is not of a legal path” . When I click further it goes on to say below

Then, came a great support from my favorite Dynamics GP partner forums, Greg Byer has ensured all he could do to help me get past the error. Initially, it was diagnosed that the error might be due to some DLL files not registering properly. So, I was guided to download a batch file from partnersource that is intended to tell us of any DLLs failing to register(KB 848210). However, this batch file looks to be more automated that we cannot see the errors in specific. Then, Greg has actually provided me with another batch file that actually goes and register each DLL and tell us anywhere if a specific DLL fails to register. I ran the batch file keeping the same in my FRx program folder, then I got to see each DLL getting registered while it was struck with this error in specific

“LoadLibrary (windows/system32/msxml4.dll) failed - A DLL initialization routine failed."

Then, I searched for msxml4.dll file in system32 folder, registered that file manually. Then went to see if I’m seeing the error again. No. It worked this time. Sometimes, when a particular DLL fails to register properly, We cannot easily identify which DLL is causing issue for us. However, possessing this batch file actually help us resolve the issue much faster. It’s quite handy. Anyone would want to get the file, Please e-mail me at my contact address. I’d be happy to share the same with you guys.

Partner Point: A proactive approach MUST

Here we are talking about Dynamics GP in specific, but this is applicable to other products as well. Our job doesn’t end with just installing and deploying the solution out there. In fact, Our job as the most trusted partner would just start from there. We cannot expect the customers to constantly follow up on the latest software updates rolling down for their use because they expect they are in safe hands just like how You’d relax once you hand over your tax documents to your CPA. Microsoft on its part tries to send E-mail updates to the customers but how many of them would pay attention to these updates unless the partner approach them on a rather personalized basis explaining the benefits. I’ll illustrate the above with an example. We know Analytical Accounting has some critical updates pending in earlier versions of GP and these were made available in GP 10 SP4. As a partner, It becomes our obligation to take this update to the customers, whether they take your advice or not is d
