Title: Problems with Kodak software
Post by: Wayne on June 26, 2005, 10:49:06 PM
Hi to all!
 Does anyone know of a possible conflict with Kodak drivers/software?

 Running Win98SE Lite
 Avast 4.6
 I use CodeStuff startop manager...I had disabled Kodak from loading on start-up, but recently enabled it to download some pictures from the camera.

 Upon reboot, Windows froze at loading of Avast and ZoneAlarm.

 After dozens of attempts, I disabled the Kodak software, rebooted, and Avast worked!

 Not sure of the problem, and somewhat paranoid...I did a back-up and clean install of Windows...

 Now all works fine, except for the reinstallation of Avast...I even downloaded the installation package from the website, still no go!

Upon start-up of Avast Antivirus the following error messages are received:



Unknown error
Storage cannot be created for the "Splash" task


Unknown error
Cofiguration is not loaded properly. Error: dbsCreateObject


Unknown error
Program cannot save parameters to the storage! (Error: dbsCreateObject
)

AND....
 Upon trying to manually scan "Kodakccs.exe", and "KodakCCS" Avast gives the following error:
Error message
Program cannot create "Object" in "Storage"

 These 2 files exist in the following locations:

Kodakccs.exe  C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\DRIVERS

KodakCCS.exe  C:\Program Files\Common Files\Kodak_dr

Any ideas?

 Everything worked properly in the past...and I have been totally satisfied with the performance of Avast 

 Any response would be greatly appreciated

       Thanks, Wayne

Hi Again!,
 The problem was solved!
 After some thought, I did what I should have done in the beginning...I searched the forum for posts regarding these particular errors, and found the solution!
 Thanks,

Wise words Wayne, now you know the power of the forums, there is so much information for those prepared to look ;D

I take it you changed the database storage method to XML.

A belated welcome to the forums.
