How to force webclient in to 64bit

[james.kidson@tgw-group.com]

Can someone help,
Due to the large number of variable in a project circa 500,000 I receive "out of memory errors" using 7.60 webclient.
I start the runtime in 64bit mode but all the webclients try and connect in 32bit mode.

As far as i know, the webclient is only as 32bit available.

Thanks but there is definitely a 64bit option if you look in the setup files web client(x86) and web client 64

Hi!

Have you checked that you start a 64-bit version of the browser?

I am running windows 10 64bit. I have tried launching iexplorer found in the "program files" folder but it seems that it is intent on running 32bit.
I have tried launching the zenwebclient.exe form command line "zenwebclientstarter.exe -Project TGW_MAIN_151085 -Server uktcmms-01 -Webserver uktcmms-01 but nothing happens

Hi again!

Internet Explorer should start as 64 bit in a 64 bit Windows but as always there are some settings required.

For the webclientstarter the following command always work for me:
"C:\Program Files\COPA-DATA\zenon Web Client 7.60 SP0\zenWebClientStarter.exe" -project Exampleproject -Server aNiceServername -WebServer aNiceServername -Zoom 1"

You may need to register it first! Check the following info in the help file:

Hi,
it is not possible to run the webclient control in a 64-Bit instance of the Internet Explorer. This is due to the fact that Plugins (activeX) can't run in IE as 64-Bit controls, only 32 is possible.

You'll need to create your own OCX container to be able to load the control in 64-Bits or you use our new WebClientStarter.exe which is officially released with 8.0. Nevertheless with the language build of 7.60 the webclientstarter is also present in older versions and the command FredrikV posted works.

Thanks Fredrik

, this rings a bell about having to register. unfortunately that section of the manual doesn't appear. which dll or exe needs regsvr32 running on

Hi again!

You might need to run the cmd as an administrator.
After that it's pretty straight forward:



Hopefully everything will work as expected after that.

Thanks for your help
I managed to get it sorted using the webclient(64bit) and launching the zenwebclientstarter.exe from command prompt with the relevant switches used. Then to allow the activex feature to work I used a modified zenrt32.tlb file...
All sorted after months of trying
