netMsmqBinding

[ludwig_stuyck]

Hi,

I'm trying to run a simple WCF demo app that uses netMsmqBinding. When
starting the host, I get the exception:
'Unable to load DLL 'mqrt.dll': A dynamic link library (DLL)
initialization routine failed'

Any ideas?

(it's on windows server 2003)

Thanks!

Do you have msmq 3.0 or 4.0 installed from "Add Remove Programs // Windows
Components"?
The version of msmq is tied to the OS version.


Working msmq example (among other things) can be downloaded here as well:

PS

This was the situation with Windows2000, I don't know about XP/2003.

If you installed msmq "after the fact", you had to rerun Window2000 SP_N_
where N was the latest version of course.

...

If I were installed msmq after the fact today on any production box, I'd run
the latest SP on it.
That's because the windows 2000 thing would create the blue screen of death.
It took me 4 blown up machines to figure out the the fix.


It may not be an issue with XP/2003. I was so burned by Windows2000 that I
never tempted it.
