Posted - 03 Jul 2008 : 22:47:49 Has anyone been able to figure out why "incompatible Database" message occurs after fresh installation. I have gone through all the forums and tried all suggestions with no success.
I have Vista Ultimate 32 bit system with 400 GB in raid setup. IT has all the latest service pack update.
Things I have tried: - Uninstalled and removed all references from registry. Reinstalled as administrator - Unintalled reinstalled with Virus scanning software turned off -Installed new copies of all .net packages no success - Enable .net authorization in control panel programs settings - set properties to read write to entire directory for extreme Movie Manager data storage - Installed Visual Studio 2008 with hopes that maybe some server drivers would be installed that were missing to allow the program to work. - installed older version of Movie Manager - Tried to create new database once in the program - Set properties to program to run in Administrator Mode and under Windows XP , Windows Server. Neither worked.
I would love to use this program but with these issues I cant even get the database to load.
This error occurs when initializing
First I get "This Database is NOT Compatible!" in Error Loading Database dialog box. After I click OK the next dialog box I receive is "91Object reference not set to an object." in the eXtreme Movie Manager dialog box.

At this time not, XMM just reload the grid and select the first one.
I will try to do something.
Thank you!

Since my W7 install was only a month old I decided to reistall Windows. Nice and shiny again.
Thanks anyway. My 1700 movie database remains intact and working fine.
By the way, is there any way to make exMM open the last installed movie on startup instead of the first movie?
Thanks again for your efforts

Posted - 02 Jan 2010 : 13:12:50 Hi Guys,
Sorry for late reply.
Just a summary: at this point you still receive error of ActiveX when you launch XMM?
I think the best way is to reinstall the MSFramework. please let me know,

Careless use of Glary Utilities on my Windows 7 64 made quite a mess of my system. Recovered everything but the dreaded 429 Cannot Create ActiveX Component. Reluctant to rebuild so any luck on fixing issue on Windows 7? |

Posted - 23 Oct 2009 : 16:49:10 I got the incompatible DB now and access is saying the same thing, I got the backup version and the temp version and they are saying the same thing, while a previous DB I created as a tester when I first got the program is working fine. so it must be the DB and not the program. I'm running Win7 (that it by the way works fine on for 4 weeks now) Thank you for creating this DB it is great. |

Posted - 03 Oct 2009 : 17:41:41 Hi,
This is really a strange thing, that XMM "corrupt" the database in some way...
Can you please ZIP and send to me your corrupted database? I want take a look to it to see what's wrong.
Thank you!

Thanks for the tip. Access was able to repair the database without any major apparent loss of data.
Yes, all previous releases worked (I've been a user for several years), but 7.0.5.2--a fresh install--corrupted the fixed database once again (this time on a different drive) after a normal exit... Luckily I now have a working backup and an older version of 7.0.3.3.
I won't be upgrading exMM again, since I don't use the newer features (hope you maintain backwards compatibility!)

Posted - 03 Oct 2009 : 06:44:38 Hi,
The previous release worked correctly? Have you install other softwares that may have corrupted your Database Drivers?
Please, if you have Access, try to open your database to see if everything is OK.

Posted - 02 Oct 2009 : 07:31:55 Shortly after updating to 7.0.5.2 (on my Windows x64 Vista Ultimate), I received this error:
This Database is NOT Compatible!
-Error point: 423
U:\My New Database.mdb
-2147467259.Unrecognized database format 'U:\My New Database.mdb'.
The error codes don't match any of the ones above, nor do the solutions work (which I tried after making a complete copy of the .mdb and folders). Somebody PLEASE tell me I don't have to start over (again--hence the db name). I was over 2500 titles...
Anyone else have this problem?

C:\Users\Public\eXtreme Movie Manager\Databases\Movies.mdb

Then I get
91Object reference not set to an object.
I have tried all of the other suggestions here.
Some things I would like to know though....
1.People have mentioned registry entries may be missing....any idea what they are - I would be happy to manually add them if it made my program work.
2. Its also mentioned that adodb.dll may not be registered correctly...when I try to re register it I get the following ......... Any help would be great as I have been looking for an application like this for a long while now and I am very keen to start populating my database.
I had this same problem on my laptop (vista ultimate, 32 bit Sp1) but mysteriously the application worked without a hitch on my desktop (vista business, 32 bit sp1). I have been looking forward to using this application for almost half a year now (i had corresponded with Alessio Viti regarding import from All My Movies and was elated when the feature finally made it to version 6.5) and I tried everything mentioned here to make sure it worked on my laptop to no avail ... that is until i fired up process explorer from sysinternals.
The solution to this string of errors is simply deleting a registry key! I noticed that on the laptop the Exe was accessing the key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\ODBC\ODBC.INI\Engines\Jet however the desktop (the working one) was not accessing the same key. So i figured it might work by deleting the whole key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\ODBC\ODBC.INI\Engines
viola! that sorted out the problem and i now have eXtreme Movie Manager working perfectly on both machines. I hope this will be a help to all the Vista Users out there who have been unable to use this great App!

Posted - 19 Dec 2008 : 07:58:03 I really don't know why sometime happens these things. The problem is that I never had such problems so it's hard to find a solution.

The module "C:\(path to dll)" was loaded but the entry-point DllRegisterServer was not found.
Make Sure "C:\(path to dll)" is a valid dll or OCX and try again.
3. Is it possible to just manually create the data source? eg. add in the ODBC settings manually? Seems to me this shouldnt be hard.
Along with what else has been tried here I have also run System File Checker which came up with no errors, dumped Acronis True Image and rolled back the system restore.
Also - if anyone has a good link on how to force a rebuild of Windows DAC this may help. It can be done easy with MDAC 2.8 and according to the MSDN posts I read they are almost identical functionally.....
Any help would be great as I have been looking for an application like this for a long while now and I am very keen to start populating my database.
Do you use reg cleaner, if so witch? |

Hi,
Maybe when you uninstall the software Acronis True Image it delete some DLL to manage databases. It's the only explanation I have in mind.

Hi all,
If you guy's haven't figure it out yet the problem is caused by missing entry's in the registry. Most probably done by Reg Cleaners. I just had this problem and it was easily solve by restoring the registry.
I'm gonna send you that Movie Card now Alessio totally forgot about it ;D |
