[rajesh shirpuram]

hi,
we have an windows application that is developed using VB.NET and xml. The application runs fine when it is runned on windows professional but it gives error for windows server 2003. When viewed the details of error it is giving error to a dll which is third party dll, used for generating graphs and pie charts.
this is the error.............

See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just in time (JIT) debugging, the config file for this
application or machine (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.7:47 PM 5/17/20067:47 PM 5/17/2006
For example:
<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>
When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the machine
rather than being handled by this dialog.

what i can do to rectify this error....

please help me out....

I dont really have a clear answer to this because I havent got all that much experience in coding with VB.NET. What I think might be the problem is that there is no RMChart.DLL on the server 2003 pc. It might be that the dll isnt registered or simply isnt on the PC. Just search for the dll on your Xp pro pc, copy it and put in the program folder on the server 2003 pc. this should hopefully work. When you got the thrid party stuff, did you have yo install it on your xp pro pc? if you did, then do the same to 2003 pc if simply copying the file doesnt work.

like i said, im still a novice
