Can't get VCS to work with PVCS

I am unable to get the VCS plugin to work with PVCS. I have had no problems getting it to work with SourceSafe (yes, unfortunately I have to use both tools depending on which project I am working on).

I can get both PVCS & SourceSafe to work fine within the Visual Studio IDE, so it seems like the problem is in the plug-in.

When I click on either "Open Project" or "Run Version Control System" from within the VCS menu option the program crashes with the message:
"access violation at address 0618BA7C in module 'VCS.Dll'. Read of address 00000008"

followed by the message:
"Runtime error 216 at 0617381A"

I am running version 6.0.5.931 of PL/SQL developer and version 1.2.0 of the VCS plug-in.

Any help you could give would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Paul
 
I have both and they work fine, so it should be possible. Is there a VCS.log file created in the PL/SQL Developer directory? If so, can you send it to me?
 
Thanks for your help Marco.

There is no VCS.log file in the PL/SQL Developer directory, but there is a vcsdebug.txt file. Would that help?

Here is the contents of that file:
5/17/2006 1:24:39 PM Application started
5/17/2006 1:24:39 PM LocateSCCProviders: PVCS Source Control
5/17/2006 1:24:39 PM LocateSCCProviders: Microsoft Visual SourceSafe
5/17/2006 1:25:08 PM SelectProject
5/17/2006 1:25:08 PM TSCCProvider.Initialize
5/17/2006 1:25:08 PM Caption = plsqldev
5/17/2006 1:25:08 PM InitSCCProvider plsqldev
5/17/2006 1:25:08 PM DLLInit OK
5/17/2006 1:25:08 PM SccInitialize

Thanks
 
OK, I thought maybe upgrading to a later version of PL/SQL Developer might help (I was desperate).

But even after upgrading to 7.0.0 I am still getting the same error using VCS with PVCS.

Is it possible that I have a registry setting incorrect in HKLM\Software\PVCS\Interfaces\SCC ?

Thanks
 
That could be, but it is unlikely since you mentioned that thing work correctly from within the Visual Studio IDE.

We'll probablt have to send you a debug version to get to the bottom of this.
