Hello all,

e-Sword is a wonderful tool but I'm having some trouble with my copy. The search function across the software (including Extended Search) does not work, returning 0 responses immediately. Only RegEx functions seem to work. The SermonAudio feature also does nothing after clicking the button.

I'm running Windows XP on an Acer AspireOne notebook (as a sidenote, these issues seem similar to some experienced in crossover for Linux).

If anyone could help it would be gratefully received.

Thanks

Are you really running Windows XP?

( Excuse my skepticism, but your description is of the major/only functionality that CrossOver/WINE users experience, that Windows users do not experiance.)
  • Which version of Windows XP are you running?
  • Which edition of Windows XP are you running?
  • Are you using the 32 bit, or 64 bit version of Windows XP.
  • What version of .NET is installed
  • What version of MIE is installed;
  • How much RAM does your system have?
  • How much RAM is e-Sword using?

Hi jonathon

Yep, it really is XP.
I also send a troubleshoot through to Rick Meyers, who pretty promtly gave me a couple of registry changes to make. The search has been working fine since then. Sermon Audio still won't load but I can live without it.

So, thanks for your concern but I suppose I'm OK now.
Three cheers for Mr. Meyers!

Please post the registry edits, for others to try if they run into similar problems. Thanks.

The instructions I received were as follows:

Run the following commands from the "Run" dialog (accessed by selecting
"Start" from the taskbar, then choosing "Run"):

regsvr32 C:\Windows\System32\msxml6.dll

regsvr32 C:\Windows\System32\vbscript.dll

You may want to copy and paste the command, rather than typing it in.

You should get a "succeeded" message on each command when run.

Having the same problem on a Mac (Mountain Lion) with Crossover (2.1.2). The search doesn't work properly. 

 

TESTED results when using the Bible search...

Search for all of the words - NO Results

Search for any of the words - NO Results

Search for the exact phrase - NO Results

Regular Expressions (REGEX) - YES Results

 

Any ideas or insight would be much appreciated. Thanks.
