Description jasonwjones 2007-07-17 17:19:44 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
When I run gnucash from the shortcut, nothing happens, although there is a gnucash-bin.exe program running.  When I attempt to run it from the command line, I get the error:

This application has failed to start because libgncmod-engine.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix the problem. 

The DLL does appear in the gnucash folder though.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Install GnuCash for Windows 2.2.0
2. Run it.
3. PROFIT!!!


Actual results:
It doesn't run.

Expected results:
The program to run.

Does this happen every time?
Yes.

Other information:
I installed GnuCash to C:\Program Files\local\GnuCash. I install all of my "non-work related" programs here... other than that, that's the only difference between what I did and a completely stock install.
