Dte.olb could not be loaded.Please re-run setup and repair your installation

When i startup vs.net IDE after install Whidbey ,i had gotten a error message ,”Dte.olb could not be loaded.Please re-run setup and repair your installation”.

Then I searched the “DTE.olb” file in local disk,I found it located in “X:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\MSEnv”

Reference to MSDN the dte.olb is the COM Object model  of EnvDTE namespace .So if it hadn't registered successfully, the VS.net IDE would can't work well.

As the file is a COM Object ,so i registered it with regsvr32 function.such as:

regsvr32 c:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\MSEnv\dte.olb

Commonly it can resolve the “Dte.olb could not be loaded“ error when starup the VS.net IDE

Hmm, when I try it, i get the error:

LoadLibrary("c:\program") Failed - The specified module could not be found.

Any thoughts? I am executing 'regsvr32 c:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\MSEnv\dte.olb' by going START->RUN in windows.

I had noticed the error message"LoadLibrary("c:\program") Failed - The specified module could not be found. "

the file that LoadLibrary function try to load isn't 'c:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\MSEnv\dte.olb' but "c:\program"


it make clear that the 'regsvr32 command can't parse long file name
you can:
instead short filename of long file name,such as regsvr32 c:\progra~1\......
2.change the current directory to c:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\MSEnv,then run:regsvr32 dte.olb

Thank you for the response shannon, it's true that I couldn't use long filenames. I'm getting a new error after running regsvr32, now that I have the correct path:

DllRegisterServer in C:\Progra~1\Common~1\Micros~1\MSEnv\dte.olb failed.
Return code was: 0x8002801c

Thank you for your help.

Hello!

Use qoutation marks instead. Example:

regsvr32.exe "c:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\MSEnv\dte.olb"

Worked for me...

Thanks so much for the REGSVR32 solution to the DTE.OLB problem - it helped me tremendously!

to nic:
The error value ‘0x8002801c’ means ‘Error accessing the OLE registry’.
It is likely that permissions on part of the registry have been changed to deny you access. You will need to be a local administrator to register the COM object.

Yep, fixed my issues as well, thank you, big time.
(change the current directory to c:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\MSEnv,then run:regsvr32 dte.olb )

Hi, I don't have admin permission in my machine and I can't run the program. Error message is the same as above, but the administrator was able to run the program. When I try to run regsvr32, I have the '0x8002801c' error. Is there a way I can fix it without getting admin permission? thanks!

L-E Eriksson,

In reply to your suggestion to use quotes around the path and file for the .dll 7/12/2004 7:13 PM. Yes this works, thanks. I too have this problem but the whole truncated file and folders is causing problems elsewhere. For instance in VB when I reference .dll's in projects and check this code into a code server the references are still truncated. This problem has arisen ever since I reinstalled Windows XP prof.

The build I used to reinstall was quite standard. XP prof. sp1. I have Visual studio 6.0, Visual Studio .Net, SQL Server 2000, Office 2003 and some other bits and pieces.

Do you know how I can configure my build to recognise long file names rather than 8.3 format?

Any suggetions will be grateful and put an end to this last weeks frustration :-)

Hi
Thanks a lot.I was going to re install it..But u save my time..
Using Quotation mark solved the long filename problem.But...
I faced a different problem.DTE.olb file was not available in location "c:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\MSEnv". Then I copied it from different computer.But still I don't know why it occured.

It seems that registering dte.olb solves the problem. However, I can't find DTE.olb on my machine. Where can I download it from since I have Visual Studio.net Enterprise?

Oops, I found DTE.olb and registering it seemed to indeed solve the problem. However I still have the "ms development environment has not been installed" error. Does anyone have any idea on how to get past that hurdle?

For the record, I had this problem when loading .NET on a Virtual Machine. Registering the DLL did the trick.

you !!! Works flawlessly now. I couldn;t understand why .NET 2k3 wasn't installing properly (it was *JUST* installed before I rebooted)

I get the message 'LoadLibrary("dte.old") failed - The specified module could not be found.' Any ideas on what is wrong? I have tried to re-install VS, but that did not help. I can actually open VS, and it mostly works ok, but I can not add atl classes in C++.
