AW: Externals are not loaded

[toolbook at kestner.de]

You got it!
I have installed LC 9.0.2 32Bit and LC 9.5.1 64 Bit ...
Obviously I have been off for too long and not anymore in the subject.

Ok, last externals question. In my old builds I found a revsecurity.dll and have no idea what I have used it for and can't find it anymore in the current LC setups. Can anybody  confirm that this external today is obsolete?

Thank you
Tiemo

I am not sure if this might be the problem, but what version of 9.5.1 are you running? 32 or 64 bit?

If 64bit, maybe there is a problem using 32bit externals on a 64bit LC IDE and you should try the 32bit version of 9.5.1. But that´s just a guess.

I would say, Panos or Mark Waddingham could answer this better.
