VO SubSystem LoadLib failed error=1114 + Size of EXE File exceeds maximum size

Post by ic2 »

We have installed a Cavo 29 on an Azure server. On my admin login Cavo starts but on the login of my Trainee it starts only after a dozen errors:
APPRGMEF.DLL - SubSystem LoadLib failed, error=1114 (followed by a dozen other files, same 1114 error). It looks like he has R/W rights in in the cavo bin directory, so what could cause it?

Next problem is that when we start the program (also on my admin logon) I get an error

Link failed! Error in function LnkWriteExe: Size of EXE File exceeds maximum size (0x4000000)

However, we have the same settings (cavo28.cfg) in my VO installation and there it runs. I even changed all the [VOLink] values, see below, but the program keeps complaining about a 0x4000000. What do I miss?

Dick

[VOLink]
MAP=0
ReleaseBuild=0
StackSize=0x800000
BinarySize=0xF000000
ExeAtomTabSize=0x8000000

Did you also take a look in the voprj file of the repository?

Hi Dick,

do you have installed VO or do you have copied the installation from your local machine?
Are these errors occurring also with one of the standard applications?
I understand that your trainee has not any administrator rights on this machine, but are you sure that he has full read and write access to all files in the VO directory (and of course also in the directory where you put your repository data)?

Dick,
The sum of the values that you specify in your VOLink session is VERY large.
Are you sure you need to allocate that much memory.

Remember that VO is a 32 bit program so it has as a total of 4 Gb for the program and its data. The data consists of the loaded repository as well as the size of the EXE file that it tries to build.
If I add up all your sizes then this is a total of 800 Mb.
That seems a little bit too much.

Hello Otto,

Not sure what I should change there? It is the project file copied from the working Pc.

Hello Wolfgang,

Thanks for your suggestions.

1 I thought I did a basic install followed by a copy which I usually do if I transfer a VO to a new Pc for example. I now wonder if I only copied the data....could be...

2 The 1114 errors which he has and I don't - I agree that looks like a access right problem. However, if I can create files in all VO directories through Explorer I'd say these are set correctly. I'll recheck it with temporarily making him administrator and see if that changes.

The size of exe error does not occur in a small application. I just don't know where to change it so that large application runs (given the fact that we use the same .cfg file settings as in the PC it was moved from). And that is not an access right issue as I have the same problem when I log in.

Hello Robert,

No, I am not sure about any of these settings. I changed them on my system after you earlier commented they where too high but had to change them back to what they were for most of them as I got errors. It's more trial & error than knowledge.

Note that I do have an error that the setting is too low (Size of EXE File exceeds maximum size) and not that it is set too high. Not sure which setting, as I changed all 0x400000 in the .cfg file to 08 or so. Usually a change in the cfg file solves the problem so I just just wonder why not now.

I thought you didn't know where the 0x4 was from.
To make the identification easier I differentiate the different values so tracing them back is easier.
You can see in the properties of the exe what the size of some of the sections should minimal be.

For totalcommander there is a plugin (FileInfo 2.2.3. by Francois Gannier) which can disect it for you:
For instance:

SECTION TABLE

Hello Otto,
Both you and Wolfgang were close by referring to the project file, but in the end it was the good old off line comp.lang ng were I found the solution. I'll explain:

1 First, I decided to reinstall Cavo. The re installation of Cavo has solved the series of 1114 error messages at start-up. Pity it's not documented where they come from. Maybe it has to do with the fact that I install it on a Azure server? Pc installation never gave me this problem.

2 Then I decided to recreate the project and import one by one (normally we just copy the project directory after creating an empty one and renaming it). Then the error message changed into:

Error in function __AllocBytes: Maximum size (0x400000) or section .text exceeded. But fortunately I could find this in the NG, because I had this same problem in 2014, and I found a a solution from Meinhard, see below. Basically I had to remove the [Volink] section (which was still empty) in the project file before it accepted the changes I created in the .cfg file. See below.

Normally I have these kind of problems when trying to get something working using VS. But I'm glad I found the solution, and I hope it helps future readers.



Dick

===========
This is the reply I got from Meinhard on the Grafx site:

try to substitute the section [VOLink] in your cavo28.cfg with the
following :

[VOLink]
MAP=0
ReleaseBuild=0
StackSize=0x800000
BinarySize=0xC000000
ExeAtomTabSize=0x4000000
TempAtomTabSize=0x4000000
edata=0x400000
idata=0x400000
reloc=0x800000
rsrc=0x2000000
text=0xE000000
data=0x4000000

and make sure there's no [VOLink] section in the corresponding .voprj
file of your repository ( or put the changes in there ). These values
are quit near the maximum values and work for us to rebuild the AppFact which is quite huge ...
