[DUG] Delphi 6, win2003 server and DEP

Thu Aug 23 16:16:03 NZST 2007

I turned it off totally, but still get the same errors.

Im moving away from 2003 altogether, reverting back to Win2000 until I can
re-write my software (in c#.net - MWAAAHAHAHAHA),  as I have been trying to
fix this issue for over 18 months now with no joy.  

GRRRRRRRR

I believe you can turn DEP off for just a single application if required.
Prob the best option in the meantime.

Debugging??? Right lol

AFAIK debugging is not an option with my webbroker cgi apps.  This is a
run-time issue.

I run 4 cgi apps on the same apache server, and one of them is constantly
erroring (usually on login unless I have some queued errors then I cannot
even access the login page).  I get Fault Bucket errors in event viewer.
This issue has only started since we migrated to win2003 server.  Also since
that migration I have to use UPX to compress my .exes before they will run
on 2003 (I believe that was related to DEP).

Are you saying your app suffers from DEP or only while debugging do you
suffer from DEP?

If only while debugging then you need D2007. AFAIK, there is no
support/updates available for D7 that relate to DEP. There may be a D7 SOAP
only fix, but that is just at run-time issue and if your app is a cgi, then
you are prob not using this (just check the units in use while debugging to
see if the soap units have been compiled in - but even then, I'm pretty sure
that it would require a SOAP call to be made into your app before the issue
shows it head).

Nope I mean D7.  Apparently this fix relates to D7 and up, and I have D7 and
D8 (which I will never use again)

I'd rather not have to purchase 2007

Im not even sure if the SOAP runtime is relevant, as my app is just a plain
old standalone cgi app.

I presume you mean D2007 and not D7? 

>From D2007 onwards (not certain if this also applies to D2006), then
debugger has been changed to avoid DEP issues. 

And yes I think from memory, there was also path to some of the SOAP code to
also avoid the same issue. A search  of QC should find the issue and when it
was fixed.

Hiya

Does anyone know much about the issue with early versions of Delphi and
win2k3 DEP issues?

I have been suffering from this I believe for some time and I really need to
overcome it.  I suspect I may be able to upgrade to D7 and apply the Delphi
SOAP runtime patch to overcome this but I'm not entirely sure.
