[Equest-users] eQuest installation Error

Nick I tried opening the previously created eQuest.7175 files I attached with eQuest 3.65 and that created the same error.  There should not be anything wrong with the schedule name. I am wondering if the eQuest.7175 msi file might not be executing properly. I wonder if this is the result of not having correct admin permissions on the new laptop?

I will talk it over with the tech staff that gave me the laptop on Monday. Has anyone had similar problems with the eQuest3.65.7175 program downloading?

Hi Kathryn,

I initially replicated your error on trying to open, then did 2 things (you may only need to do one) and it opened just fine:

  1.  Observing the INP file didn't seem to be off after investigating the BDL error, I renamed all instances of the offending schedule just to be safe
  2.  I tried switching my eQuest installation to open in doe23 from doe22.

One or both of those did the trick!  I would try #2 first as the easiest/most likely remedy.

Ok, it appears I sent this e-mail to the incorrect address. I still need some help. The original attached files were created with eQuest 3.65-7175 on a laptop with Windows 10. I now have a new laptop with Windows 10 which has a recently downloaded version of eQuest 3.65-7175. This new laptop and recently downloaded version of eQuest 3.65-7175 will not run the previously created eQuest 3.65-7175 projects. I cannot figure it out except that the newer eQuest 3.65-7175 downloaded program appears to be functioning like the older eQuest 3.65 and saves files to the older eQuest 3.65 file locations. It does not make any sense. The newer laptop is an HP. The older laptop was an ACER. Anybody know what is going on?

Subject: eQuest installation Error

Everyone I have been using eQuest for years, put for some reason I can't get eQuest 3.65.7175 loaded onto a new laptop to open previously created eQuest models  also created with eQuest 3.65.7175 on another laptop. The error I get is:

[cid:image010.png at 01D60044.FCB736D0]

Doesn't matter which previously created eQuest 3.65.7175 project I pick, I get the same type of error. I created a new project, Project 1, and it seems to work although the program saved it to eQuest 3.65 Projects instead of eQuest D23 projects.

Old laptop had Windows 10 and new laptop has Windows 10. Anybody have some suggestions? Never had a problem downloading and using eQuest before. Attached is example *.pd2 and *.inp that generates error.
