Building a standalone and running program on other computers

Post by Darkon » Mon Mar 16, 2015 1:22 pm

Hi, I am very new to this side and to using livecode, I built my first windows program and works great when I run it on the computer I build it on. However when I load all the files on to another computer it gives me an error "the application what unable to start correctly (0xc0000005). I am not sure what I did wrong.

Thanks

Hi Darkon,

1. welcome to the forum! :D
2. Sorry, we cannot even guess what might go wrong without a LOT more info!

What do you mean with "load all files to another computer"?
When do you get that error dialog"... unable to start..."?
Did you try a new simple, maybe even non functional stack, create a standalone from that
and try to run this one on another machine?

Hi Klaus,

When you click on save as standalone Application, and it creates the folder with the exe file in it. It also creates a sub folder called externals. If I load that main folder with all the files in it, on to a USB key then down load them to another computer and double click on the exe file that was create it gives that error, however if I double click on the file, on the computer it was made on it works just fine. I tried it even with just a main stack and nothing else and does the same thing.

Thanks

Seems I figured out what the problem was, It was a corrupted, USB Drive, every time I loaded a program on to it, it would mess it up. So I tried it on a name brand USB and it works fine. :D
