Today's little slice of joy comes installing an eConnect/VSTools application onto a Windows 7 machine. There's not much documented on what's needed, so here's the errors and how I got past them.
We have a combination of GP 10, VS Tools, eConnect, Enterprise Library 4.1, and Windows 7. It all worked fine on the server, but the workstation went through a series of errors
Error 1:
Rattliff.fll: the type initializer for 'Microsoft.Dexterity.applications.root' threw and exception.InnerException: Specified argument was out fo the range of valid values.
Parameter name: productID
Error 2:

Error 3:
