I have a problem with this software, but I don't think that HP is the source of the problem.
This program, HP Director, is a GUI for using their Scanner (HP PSC 1318).
I think that they use a html kind of way do display the program, using java scripts for the menus.
Every time I start the program, I get the following errors:

"A runtime error has occured, Error: Object required" and when debugging, I come to the following code line "var itemStr = tdcMenuRS("dir-menu-"+oDevSettings[i].setting[j].subSetting[k].settingID);"

a second error is: "Error: Object doesn't support this property or method" and the codel ine is: "var lang = tdcStrings.recordset("local-id").value;"

The program doesn't show.
I have the latest java software installed from www.java.com/en/download/, I have reinstalled .NET and MDAC, I have uninstalled and reinstalled the HP software, but nothing seems to help.

Can someone tell me what the source of the problem is?

Thank you!

Looks more like VBScript to me. What OS are you running?

If WinXP or 2K:
What Service Pack are you running?
Have you disabled any services?

I use XP2 with SP1 (corporate, not able to update to SP2 due to network admin restrictions).
I have tried to install several times. the first time, normally, the second time with all startup items disabled, third time as a local admin... nothing helps.

The strange thing is: My colleagues have the same XP config and some of them hav no problems, while others have had some problems with the installation.

I use XP2 with SP1...
XP2? There is only XP Pro or Home.

What services do you have running that are different between the two systems?

My question is really: When the debugging tells me: "Object Required", what object is it refering to???

I don't know what services My colleages use...

"A runtime error has occured, Error: Object required" and when debugging, I come to the following code line "var itemStr = tdcMenuRS("dir-menu-"+oDevSettings[i].setting[j].subSetting[k].settingID);"
Basically, the tdcMenuRs is failing to load. Why that is happening is our mystery. There may be a bit of software difference between your machine and the one that is working. That is what I am trying to think about. I am not really sure what piece of software would change that.

One thing I've been thinking of:
At home, I use Mac Os X Tiger. In this Unix OS, I sometimes need to "repair permissions" in order to have the system and programs work correctly.
Is there a similar 'instruction' in the MS Win world? Can it be done? Could this be the cause of the problems?
The reason I think that might be the cause is that when I installed Java, I had to change the permissions in the folder "C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_05" to make the installation work. (I unchecked "read only" under properties)
Could this particular problem be a similar problem? And if so, how do I repair the permissions in WinXP?

I will take a look at it. In the mean time...can you add code tags so that the scripting isn't so huge on the page?

PeejAvery

Well, the example you gave me is full of Java. Does your machine have the latest JavaVM installed and Java 2 Platform?

Well, the example you gave me is full of Java. Does your machine have the latest JavaVM installed and Java 2 Platform?
Yes.
I have now tried to uninstall thoroughly, first as myself as user, and then as the local admin. HP has 5 different levels of uninstall: Uninstall.bat, uninstall_L1.bat, uninstall_L2.bat, etc.
I went throught all of them as both users with a restart after each, and then reinstalled the thing as myself to NO AVAIL. It still gives me the same error messages.

HP has 5 different levels of uninstall: Uninstall.bat, uninstall_L1.bat, uninstall_L2.bat, etc.
I am confused. You uninstalled and reinstalled Java 2 Platform and JavaVM? That is what I was refering to.

phil4u2

October 25th, 2005, 01:55 AM

yes, that too... I have installed these 2 programs, as well as 4 different softwares that I was recomended to install before installing the actual HP software: dotnetfx.exe, MDAC_TYP.EXE, msxml.msi and scripten.exe.

I did that, and still the same error message!

That is extremely odd. I guess we are going to have to go fishing. Are all the latest Windows updates installed?

I don't know. The network admin decides it!

October 28th, 2005, 09:19 PM

I think I'll give up. I have uninstalled and reinstalled this software about 20 times, (which takes about 1 hour per time), but still have the exact same fault.
I have been in contact with HP's chat support, they gave me links to different 'patches' I should install before reinstalling, NOTHING has helped.

But thank's for trying anyways!!!

Thank God for my iMac G5 at home!!!
