The XE8 upgrade has been problematic. I had frequent IDE crashes and other small annoying stuff (ex: Select/Copy/Paste stopped working correctly), which required IDE restart.. Spoke to Embarcadero, tried some things, was still a problem. Also, ran diags on computer, it's ok; other apps are fine.

Then XE8 SP1 came out, I thought these issues were resolved. After uninstalling everything, I installed XE8 SP1 from the ISO, with no apparent problems. Reinstalled my 3rd part stuff, including EDB 2.19 Build 2 Delphi, C++ 32/64bit, again with no apparent install problems.

Started IDE, open an existing project, and no 3rd party components were in the tool palette. I ended up manually installing the component packages and add source libraries.

So my remaining problem is when I try to install the edbdesign219rsdelphiwin32xe8.bpl and edbdesign219rscppwin32xe8.bpl, I get: Unable to load package edbrun219rsdelphiwin32xe8 because of edbmigratemodule, also contained in edbrun219rscppwin32xe8 (see attached).

I don't think I have enough information to solve this. Anybody have an idea?

This looks like running IDE with the -r switch to start with clean
registry so any chance that's the case or there might be a registry issue.

I would check the IDE registry hive and see what's going on in terms of
installed components etc - not having any 3rd party components seems to
point to something other than single component problem.

I just use delphi (not Rad Studio and likely have lot less components)
but Delphi XE8 SP1 and EDB 2.19 b2 both installed fine and as far as i
can tell everything appears functional (in terms of components being
visible etc).

This one i think you do need Tim to chime in with - looks to me the
issue is installing both with both Delphi and c++ components.

My general suggestion would be to start with a clean registry hive (i.e.
-r switch when starting ide) but you already have that happening - might
be worthwhile to use this to force a new config registry hive.

Carl,

In addition I would ask whether you have other Delphi or RAD Studio installations on this machine, as that can confuse things.

If you do I would recommend moving the separate installations to separate Virtual Machines.

I realise this is a nasty step to have to take ... lots of work ... but given the complexity of the RAD studio installation it is easy for different installations to disrupt each other.

Sorry, I was not clear. All of these issues are re RAD Studio XE8 SP1 related, not just Delphi. I use Delphi mostly, but sometimes I run across a C++ project. I removed the previous version XE7, including the registry entries described in the Embarcadero docs.

I installed 3rd party packages, including EDB manually, except for the "migrate module" issue mentioned in the previous post.

I am still working with Embarcadero on crash issues...

Carl,

Sorry, I missed your original post: I've been having some issues with my newsreader showing new posts properly.

If you need the C++ support header, object, and library files, then you should only install the C++ installation.  You can then use the same design-time/run-time packages and .dcus in the Delphi personality.
