Mediabin WebService Installation Issue

When I try to run the MediaBinWebServiceInstaller.msi file, it proceeds till the Installation Address Screen and then gives me the following error:
"Unable to find an entry point named GetAuthenticationMOde in DLL MBPAdmin.dll".

Would appreciate any help in fixing this.

thanks,
iris

What version and do you have the webclient installed?

I have installed MediaBin 4.5.3 and the webclient is also installed.
When I access this url (http://localhost/MediaBinWebService/MediaBinServer.asmx?wsdl), I can see all the web methods that are available and I can successfully invoke "ValidateCurrentUser". But if I invoke "TestMediaBinConnection", I get the error message saying,"MBException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object."

What could cause this eror to come up?
thanks,

It sounds like you are using an older version of the MBPScriptModel2.dll.

Navigate to Program Files\Common Files\Interwoven, Inc\MediaBin Models and there should be a batch file that will re-register the correct version. Be sure to stop all processes that would have loaded the DLL (i.e. IIS and MediaBin Publication Service if installed )

Thanks a lot for your help.

Meanwhile, I uninstalled and reinstalled MediaBin and it works.

The same error "MBException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object" crops up again on invoking the "TestMediaBinConnection" from http://localhost:82/MediaBinWebService/MediabinServer.asmx

When I run the batch file on C:\Program Files\Common Files\Interwoven, Inc\MediaBin Models, it throws me an error stating "Load library ("MBPScriptModel2.dll") failed - The specified module could not be found.

What could be the problem?

Try typing the following in Run of start menu:

regsvr32 "path to dll"

Make sure the double quotes are there.

I tried that too. Still gives me the load library failed error. Is there any other way of resolving this?

thanks for your help.

I got it working.
I reinstalled Mediabin Webservices and the error disappeared(can't figure out how). But, when I tried to login to MediaBin WebClient,it said, "Invalid ProgID". I registered MBUtils.dll and it successfully logged me in.

Sounds like you fixed your issue. I just wanted to add that I had the same error messages a few months ago and I found it was because MBPScriptModel2.dll needs the Msvcr71.dll and msvcp71.dll which I didn't have on my machine.
