eCS 1.2R and saver 1.2 upto 1.7

In all instances/versions the first saver tab/page is missing, so I cannot activate the saver at all !!
Previous eCS 1.2 version worked flawlessly

Hi,

This was an issue I previously saw on certain builds, and somewhere in the Doodle forum here there was a solution. You might want to check that forum to see if it applies. I (un)fortunately am not in a situation where I can replicate it as I am no longer having that problem (and it was a year or more ago that I did), so I cant test the solution on my system unless I can figure out how to re-create the problem. Sorry I cant help you more, but I'm in the middle of another project right now and running a little behind, but I hope I've pointed you in the right direction.

-Robert

I don't know exactly what the problem can be, but I'll try to describe you what's needed for the tab to be present, hopefully you'll be able to find the problem based on this list.

- WPSSDESK.DLL and SSCORE.DLL must be present in \OS2\APPS\DLL, and their version should match (they should be originated from the same package)
- The WPSSDesktop class (contained in WPSSDESK.DLL) must be registered in WPS as the replacement class of the WPDesktop class (this is done by the WarpIN installation automatically)
- The WPSSDESK.DLL and SSCORE.DLL must be in the LIBPATH, so the system will find them when needed (make sure the LIBPATH=... statement in your config.sys contains the \OS2\APPS\DLL path)

If all these above apply, then you might want to try the following:
- Uninstall DSSaver using WarpIN
- Make sure that the WarpIN uninstaller deleted the following DLLs from \OS2\APPS\DLL\ : WPSSDesk.DLL, SSCORE.DLL, SSDPMS.DLL
- Delete your DSSaver configuration files from your home folder (delete the .dssaver subdirectory from your %HOME%)
- Run checkini, inimaint or any other INI file maintenance/checker utility to make sure that your WPS is in good condition
- Restart your computer (just to be on the safe side)
- Install the latest DSSaver

Let me know if any of these help!
