From: John on 1 Apr 2010 16:09 Hi A new framework 3.5 Winform db app that works fine on two pcs, crashes on one particular pc at start-up. The app has application framework enabled and I have assigned a splash form and a main form. The splash form appears for around 20 second but then app crashes with message "<app name> has encountered a problem and need top close..." and wants to send a report to MS. I have trapped the MyApplication_UnhandledException but it does not get triggered as far as I can tell. Older framework 1.1/vs2003 apps work fine on this pc. The only obvious difference I can see between this problematic pc and others is that this one has firefox installed in addition to IE while other pcs only have IE as browser. I have reinstalled fw 3.5 and sp but no luck. What can I do form here to figure out this problem? Many Thanks Regards

A 20 second splash screen sounds like a long time. Maybe the db timeout occurs and isn't handled gracefully. Its hard to guess without knowing what your startup routines do. -- Mike
From: johnny_jorgensen on 1 Apr 2010 17:37 I agree with Mike. I have had the same cryptic error message in an app where it turned out that it was MS SQL Server CE objects that were no properly closed and disposed after use. I have ONLY had it in conjunction with SQL Server CE 3.0 and 3.5 - Not in connection with the "real" SQL Server... Hope this helps, Johnny J. -----Ursprungligt meddelande----- Fr�n: Family Tree Mike [mailto:FamilyTreeMike(a)ThisOldHouse.com] Anslaget den: den 1 april 2010 22:38 Anslaget i: microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb Konversation: Application crashes at start-up �mne: Re: Application crashes at start-up On 4/1/2010 4:09 PM, John wrote: > Hi > > A new framework 3.5 Winform db app that works fine on two pcs, crashes on > one particular pc at start-up.
