Hello,

I'm getting stuck while I'm trying to use some DLLs compiled under VS .NET 2005 32 bits under Windows XP 64 bits. The problem is that I got an unresolved dependency on DEVMGR.DLL. Indeed, it does not seem to appear in SysWOW64 view. Is there any solution to get rid of this bad dependency, either some tricks about these DLLs or link statically with them ?

Thanks for your hints !

Can you share a little more about the situation where you run into this issue?

(have you already found a way around the issue that you can share?) (this post seems pretty old.. sorry no-one has gotten to it yet!)

I'm running into exactly the same issue.

Background:

I have a .Net application that runs fine on 32-bit architecture PCs. We found that it does not work properly on 64-bit PCs, the reason being that one of the third-party dlls I'm using was built for x86 (32-bit) architecture. I've switch from using the "Any CPU" target to the x86 arcturecture for my application to force the application into 32-bit mode on 64-bit PCs (see http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=916741&SiteID=1).

However, I'm now hitting a problem where, when trying to load the third party dll, I'm getting a file not found (error 0x8007007e). I used dependency walker to analyze dependencies of my application and found two missing dlls:

DEVMGR.DLL

MSJAVA.DLL

It's pretty clear that the missing dlls are missing from my 64-bit system. Is there any way to remedy this problem without getting a new third party dll?

I amusing a dell precision m90 with XP.

Thanks,

Glenn

Hi Glenn

Even i have the same issue.

DEVMGR.DLL

MSJAVA.DLL

Were you able to overcome it. if so please pass me the details

Thanks

The MSHTML.DLL module that was released with Windows XP SP2 and Windows 2003 SP1 has a delay-load dependency on MSJAVA.DLL. Missing delay-load dependencies are not a problem as long as the calling DLL is prepared to handle the missing module. Dependency Walker flags all potential problems as it cannot detect if an application intends to handle the issue. In this particular case, MSJAVA.DLL is an optional module, and MSHTML.DLL is prepared to handle it. This warning can be ignored.

I appreciate that the MSJAVA.dll issue is normal.

But if I try to load "system32\DEVMGR.dll" into DependencyChecker, it says it was "not found" ?

The DEVMGR.dll in system32 is 456K, version 5.2.3790.3959.
But I also have a DEVMGR.dll referenced from other places that is 276K, version 5.1.2600.2180.


Which is the right DEVMGR.dll, and should it be in system32 or SysWow64 ?

I also have the same issue with a .Net C# application that I built on a 32-bit box. It refuses to start on a 64-bit Windows XP box. The Dependency walker indicate DEVMGR.DLL

No matter how much I serach in Google, this thread seems to come to the top. If you guys figure out please share the resolution.

Please use DependsWalker 64bit version to check the dll .
If use 32bit version, you will see this error.
