Can't check dependencies or build image while offline

[Jure]

Hi,

does anybody know why i can't check the dependencies or build an image
while not connected to the internet? An example of the error that is
reported when checking dependencies is:

Info 106: Adding component: "Primitive: Ole32 [Version
5.1.2600.2180, R2890]", origin: "Jet Database Engine [Version

The problem appeared when moving from a cable connection (where i was
always connected to the internet and when the XP Embedded development
tools were installed) to a dial-up connection. I did a test to make
sure the connection to the internet is the problem. I started checking
dependencies while i was online and everything went fine. Then i
disconnected from the internet and the error messages, like the one
mentioned above, started to appear. It seems like TD can't find the
required files in the Repositories directory, but they are there. I
checked that. And the MSSQLServer is running. Any idea?

Thanks

Hello Jure,

is "\\TAMICKIN" your local machine or a server in your network? if its
your machine try change the repository path to something like this
"D:\Repository..." (database manager) else try to ping your server
while you are offline.

regards,
flo

For Repository and some DB access you need a working network connection. If
you only have a dialup connection then you must be connected to the
internet.
You can work around this problem by installing the 'Microsoft loopback
adaptor' on your development machine. This gives you a pseudo network
connection that actually links to your own machine. This can be done as
follows ...

Goto Control panel - Add Hardware.
Click Next
After the probe say 'Yes, I have already connected the hardware'
Select 'Add a new hardware device' from the list
Select 'Install the hardware that I manually select from a list'.
Select 'Network adaptors'
Select 'Microsoft Loopback adaptor'
Install the new hardware

In the network connections you will now see a new connection. To stop it
waiting 30 seconds after system startup getting an IP address by DHCP (which
it cannot do), specify a suitable manual IP address in network connections.

Now you will always be able to use the XPe toolset whether you are connected
to the internet or not.

If I type 'ipconfig /all' on my machine (a laptop) I get ...
