Title: AcRxClassName entry is not in the system registry
Post by: BazzaCAD on April 21, 2016, 03:21:58 PM
AutoCAD 2015 SP2.
My code has been running fine for years with no issues, now all of a sudden I'm getting 2 different "AcRxClassName entry is not in the system registry" errors.

I've narrowed this down to 2 sections of code:

1) When Acad starts up I create some layer filters:
Code - Auto/Visual Lisp: [Select]
  5.         (vlax-Get-Acad-Object)
  6.       )
  7.     )
  8.   )
  9.   "ACAD_LAYERFILTERS"
  10.   "AcDbDictionary"
  11. )

Here I get "error: Automation Error. AcRxClassName entry is not in the system registry" from vla-addobject.
The layer filters commands seem to run fine from the layer properties manager palette.

2) I have commands to draw MLeaders with a specific style, the code check to make sure the styles are already there & if not, creates them.
Code - Auto/Visual Lisp: [Select]
  2. (setq mldrdict (vla-item (vla-get-dictionaries *doc*) "ACAD_MLEADERSTYLE"))
  3. (setq newmldrstyle (vlax-invoke mldrdict 'addobject "BIGARROW" "AcDbMLeaderStyle"))

Here I get "error: AutoCAD.Application: AcRxClassName entry is not in the system registry" from vlax-invoke.
If I just type MLEADER it runs fine.

I've already re-installed Autocad from scratch.
Any other ideas?

Check registry branch:
Code: [Select]
REGEDIT4

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Autodesk\ObjectDBX\R20.0\ActiveXCLSID]
"AcDbSortentsTable"="{5EB6721F-506E-4817-B3BF-A4902DDB21AE}"
"AcDbTableStyle"="{73157A89-ABE5-40A5-88E6-C0C94BC718C7}"

So save code in .reg file, import it and reboot Windows.

Did you do any AutoCAD 2017 Beta testing?

Yeah, the uninstaller graciously wiped out the ObjectDBX entries for ALL installed versions instead of just the one it was uninstalling. There were many other entries in there....SheetSetManager, TableStyles, etc. I have a good REG file I exported after correcting all of the ones I have installed and lost.

Is it only in [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Autodesk\ObjectDBX\R20.0\ActiveXCLSID]
or are there other locations too?
I can get a reg from another machine.

Everything here should be added back from a good install:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Autodesk\ObjectDBX\R20.0\]

Mine has 4 keys, each with multiple entries. I'm pretty sure that 2 of the keys are C3D related, the other one is SheetSetManager.
