I have installed LLBLGen and I am trying to run it. I get "Exception Viewer" screen with the following message: "CryptoAPI cryptographic service provider (CSP) for this implementation could not be acquired."

Thamks in advance, Oren

Oren, Can you please paste the stack dump.

Also, have you got .Net framework 1.0 or 1.1?

Hi, My framerwork version is 1.1.

here i attach the Exception Viewer Dump:

Message: CryptoAPI cryptographic service provider (CSP) for this implementation could not be acquired.

Thanks, Oren (stacktrace deleted for obvious reasons, thanks for posting, it proved the cause of the problem . Otis)

I removed the stacktrace from the posting, and copied it to our back system, so it's not lost.

The issue is a licensing issue, it can't read the license or decrypt the license with the public key.

This only happens if 1) the license file is corrupt 2) you aren't logged in.

2) happens in asp.net environments, so that's not it. 1) can be the problem. Could you re-copy the license file into the installation folder and try again? If possible, also try to run it as an administrator, although that shouldn't be necessary.

Hi, I managed to run LLBLGEN from another username. (Although thre previous username was administrator as well!) It satisfies me.

Thank you very much! Oren

Glad it's solved.
