Visual Basic 5.0 Run-time DLL Has Read-only Attribute

ID: Q193609

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Internet Information Server version 4.0

SYMPTOMS

Under some conditions, during the installation of the Windows NT 4.0 Option Pack, the Visual Basic 5.0 run-time dynamic link library (DLL) Msvbvm50.dll is marked with the read-only file attribute. This causes errors when you run any setup program created by the Visual Basic Setup Wizard. In some cases, it will cause an error with components created by Visual Basic that are downloaded into a browser.

CAUSE

This behavior is by design.

RESOLUTION

To solve this problem, remove the read-only attribute from the Msvbvm50.dll file on the server.
