"Scintilla dll could not be loaded"

[Docfxit]

I had SciTE loaded in Win'98se. It said it was the Lite version.

I downloaded the version from:

http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/scite/downloads.shtml

I'm trying to get the full version loaded. I installed it over the top of the other version.

I'm getting an error saying:

"Scintilla dll could not be loaded"

I re-booted. Same Error.

I uninstalled SciTE. I re-booted. I re-installed SciTE. Same Error.

The file SciLexer.dll is in the same folder as SciTE.exe.

It's the default folder: C:\Program Files\AutoIt3\SciTE\SciTE.exe

Any ideas what I could be doing wrong?

Try this version of SciLexer.Dll and let me know if that works?

That worked perfectly. It doesn't give me the error while coming up. I also see the debug output. It's great.

Thank you very much for fixing it.

I just received an Invalid Page Fault so please don't distribute that version yet.

I will past the details as soon as I can. I have to drive over to that location.

Do you have a script that causes this crash so I can replicate your problem?

Jos

[Jos]

Could you give the current version a try to see if that still crashes. If so please provide a script that I can test with.

Thank you for working on it. I have downloaded and installed the latest version you created. I am testing it now. It did seem to stay up longer. It still crashed.

When I bring it up on the screen I press F5 to run it. I don't think anything in there will hurt your machine. Just leave it running for a while and it should crash. With the last version it crashed much sooner.

I'm running in '98 se. I don't know if it realy makes any difference to run it in XP.

Thank you for working on it.

Did you download and update both the SciTE.exe and Scitilla.dll ?

Edit: It did crash for me too in Win98SE.. checking if WinXP does the same

Hi Jos,

Yes I did.

Thank you,

I tested with the latest official release of SciTe (v 1.75) release by Neil Hodgson that supported win9x and this version also gives the same crash in Win98 with your script.

I am not getting any errors/probems in WinXP so have no plans to persuit this any futher as we have no plans to keep on supporting/maintaining a win9x version ourselfs.
