VIDA 2014D Communication Tool Error

Post by CamZH »

Hi Guys,
Having some issues with Vida.
I'm not able to select a Communications Tool (DICE)

I've seen its a common problem, but the registry edit suggestions didnt work for me (the entry was already there)

Win 7 Pro (64bit)
IE 11
.net framework 4.5.2 (rolled back from 4.7.2)

Anyone have any ideas ?

cheers,

Hey Cam,

I am having the same issue. The communication tool is completely blank with a red X. I have rolled back to framework 4.0 with no luck. If you find anything let us know.

Hey Cam,

Just wanted to update you that I have fixed my issue. And for anyone else with this issue here you go for windows 7 64.

Hold windows key + R. Type regedit. Go to Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\.NETFramework

Once there click on the .NETFramework file and you will see 2 values (Default) and InstallRoot. There should be a 3rd value.

Right click .NetFramework than go to new and down to DWord (32bit) and click it. Name the new one "EnableIEHosting" without the quotations. Than right click the item you just renamed and click modify. In the value type "00000001" without quotations. Should be seven 0s and a 1. Click ok.

Congrats. Relaunch the webpage login and you should be able to pick your tool.

Thanks for the suggestion,
What's worked for you seems to be a rather common issue.
I've got the registry entry there, but still no dice. (pun intended)

Vida DVD:\Install\Utils\EnableIEHostingxxx.reg .
Make sure you run the right one for your operating system.
xxx =x64 is for 64bit operating systems,
xxx =x86 is for 32bit operating systems

Reboot and login.

yep, I know this is the normal issue.
But its not my issue.

I'm going to attempt to re-format my machine and start again.
I have a feeling Windows updates have caused something that it doesnt like.

Glad I just read this thread. Had an unhappy camper after windows 10 fresh install. Appears to have done the trick!
