Hello. I work infragistic at work on win7, i dont remember what version is at the moment(writing from home) and i was wondering if they will work on windows 8 aswell. I tried using them twice on different computers for vs2008 but i had errors about licence key. And when i format and went back to win7 it worked fine. So do i need another version of infragistics to work my vs2008 projects on win8?
It is expected that applications that run on Windows 7 will also run on Windows 8 so it is expected that the controls will work in the newer operating system as well. If you have specific issues, please post them in the forums for the appropriate control so that we can look into them.
For the errors that you had about the license key, this sounds more like a general installation issue where maybe the licensing can't be found though to know what specifically was wrong it would help to have more specific details about the errors.
Let me know if you have any questions with this matter.
Thank you for the reply. Ill get a new laptop in a few days and set my work there. If i have the issue i talked about ill reply to my post. Keep it open for a few days till i get back to you with either good or bad news.
Hello,
I have reviewed the log file and didn't see any reason for the behavior you are seeing. I do want to look at some registry values on your machine and have requested these details through case CAS-122525-R1T2C0 which I created for this. You will see this case on your Support Activity page.
thank you for the reply m8. This time ive noticed that i only get license errors on the design mode where i see my ultragrids. I cant see the grid there on win8 laptop, but when i run the program it works fine. So i have to program the design on another pc and then send it complete to the win8 one. When i had this issue before like i said i couldnt run grid either nor design it. Just general info, might help:P
Here is a link with my registry file:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/4hu4fh8qvxscrj6/infra.reg
and yes i have the infragistics.license in assembly
Do you see the issue only in existing projects or if you create a new project, do you also see the behavior if you add an UltraGrid to the form?
i see it on every project. I created a new project and tried to add an ultragrid and its not working. Says about license again and nothing is added after I drag the grid on the form
If I understand your issue correctly, if you drag another NetAdvantage control on the form it will work but when you drag a grid on you get an error. I would like you to follow these steps and send me the project file that is created so I can review the references.
After these steps, zip the project file and send me this file so I can review the references. Note that you can attach files directly to your post from the OPTIONS tab when you are writing your post.
Hello Antonis,
As it turns out, the ultimate cause of this issue is that the license information was never installed on the Windows 8 PC. This is most likely because the installer for NetAdvantage 2007 Volume 1 was released long before Windows 8 and since it is no longer being maintained, there is no way for us to change the installer.
What you can do is export the appropriate registry keys from a PC where the license information was installed correctly and then import them into the registry of the Windows 8 PC. I have provided more details about the specific keys through the support case.
As it turns out, this error is occurring because your local user on the Windows 8 machine doesn't have permission to access the section of the registry the licensing information is installed to.
Thank you for your response. I have created CAS-122525-R1T2C0 for this issue. When there is a final resolution for this issue, I will post it on this thread.
unfortunately nothing works. I get the same errors when I insert anything from infragistics to the form. Hence nothing is added on the form.
