could not create implementation loader (Again) and Again
Hello,
I am a developer of a very very simple Extension for OpenOffice for Windows. It is written in Java and its only purpose is to load and execute a 'C' DLL and call it when the user selects the Tools Menu item. It uses mainly sample code to register itself and to enable/disable a command.
It installs correctly on all systems except one. And I can't figure out why. The "Use a Java runtime environment" is ticked the correct JRE installed and selected. I have de-installed both OpenOffice 3.4 and the JRE, removed the user's Roaming settings reinstalled and it still fails to initialize the Extension with the error "could not create implementation loader". The same install programs were used on other machines is the users office and they all work correctly.
I can only remote into the PC at odd hours so don't have full access to do what I want.
Are there any suggestions, Debug statements I can put in, turn on? Other avenues to research? I am at my wits end. Is there any better error message that can be produced by OpenOffice?
Thanks,
Carl Beame

Have you tried these suggestions?
http://www.zotero.org/support/word_processor_plugin_troubleshooting#could_not_create_java_implementation_loader
One of our (LanguageTool) users had the same error ("could not create java
implementation loader") and one of those suggestions finally helped.
Regards
Daniel

No, I was talking about the JVM library that comes with the JRE 7, but
as you use Java 6, this isn't the case.

There are two unconfirmed issues:
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=118346
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=120254
your issue looks like bug 120254: Win 32 bits, Java 6 32 bits, the
wizards working, but that error installing extensions. "Unconfirmed"
means only the reporter could reproduce it, though it could be a real
issue, like the Java 7 issue turned out to be.

Thanks, The Java is 1.6.0_25 which updates to 1.6.0_33 and it fails both
before and after the update.

If you are referring to the DLL being loaded, it is written in VC6 with the
runtime installed. If I delete the DLL being loaded from the a working
system and remove and reinstall the Extension, the install works, so it is
not anything to do with the loaded C Dll. The DLL is only load when the
command is executed AND a Global Atom exists indicating that another program
is running.

Yes, Java seems to work.

The machine is a 32-bit OS (2 GB Memory) and the installed JRE is 32-bit.

No, unfortunately it happens in the C++ code, not in your extensions,
which is not loaded at all.

I guess the messages could be improved in
main/stoc/source/javaloader/javaloader.cxx
The problems seems to be that OpenOffice cannot load the JavaVirtual
Machine library. What Java version are you using? There are problems
with Java 7, see
http://www.openoffice.org/development/releases/3.4.1.html#AOO3.4.1ReleaseNotes-KnownIssues
It's built with MS Visual C++ 2010 but it does not include its
redistribuable, so you have to install it on your own.
Did you check that Java is working at all on that machine? Do the
wizards, the Java macros work?
