• Hosting on Windows 2012r2 machine

    From Mike Dippel@1:103/705 to All on Tue Nov 23 08:42:14 2021
    I am attempting to move my system to a remotely hosted machine running Windows 2012r2. When I try to load sbbs I get an error that it is missing vcruntime140.dll and to try reinstaling it. I can't get it to load.

    Anyone else have this problem and provide a solution?

    Yes. I did it again and selected the repair option. Still doesn't work. Should I try to just
    go with a typical Windows O/S instead of a server edition?

    You installed *both* Microsoft Visual C++ redist packages? And for x86 (not x640?

    Shouldn't make a difference.

    Since it is a hosted server, I got a tech support person to make it work for me. Now MY
    work begins. Recreating what exists on one server to add to the other. I thought about
    just copying the /data file over, but I will take the time to ensure it works correctly by
    doing it manually.

    Hopefully, soon it will be up and running.

    It's active now on the new server. Checking ports setup to ensure everything works.

    Anyway, by "binkP" option, are you referring to the BinkIt module? Did you install it per the instructions?

    I added binkpoll and binkout comand strings to the timed events section. I didn't copy
    the old stuff over since I had already put a lot of time into setting it up on the new
    server. I'm receiving Dove Net fine. I think my boss node put me on hold since I told
    him to pause the feed until I got back to him.

    That isn't the same thing as installing BinkIt as directed by the link
    right above.

    since I told him to pause the feed until I got back to him.

    DoveNet doesn't use binkP and has nothing to do with this.
