Problem installing the webcon outlook addin.
0

Hi,

after running (WebCon.Outlook_2022_1_3_47) the "vsto" file, this error message is displayed :



The solution is to manually create the "application files" directory in the source. After that, the vsto file is imported correctly, but I open outlook and there is an inactive element in the addins - "Failed to load. A startup error occurred while loading the COM architecture plugin." Where can there be a mistake?

thank you,

Hi,

I don't think this is necessary what you are doing. You should be able to install the addin from the BPS Portal. When I click on the menu item, in chrome/edge I get asked to open it and the installation is executed directly.

Or are you rolling it out to the whole company?

Best regards,
Daniel

Hi,
Thank you for your answer.

Users are not allowed from installing any software in the domain. Installation software in our domain is provided by SCCM (System Center Configuration Manager).
The resources (WebconWorkFlow_2022_1_3_47_FullPackage.zip) in the package are make the error that I describe above.
Is the manual installation not working?

thank you,

OK, the installation of the add-on is successful. But MS outlook does not load the addin correctly.
More information in the attachment.

Hi,

for me the location looks wrong, as it should be URL of the BPS Portal as far as I understand from the readme
Installation of Add-in only (certificate should be installed separately, e.g. via Group Policy)
msiexec /i WebCon.WorkFlow.Outlook.Installer.msi /qn WORKFLOWURL="https://your_portal_address/addins/outlook/WebCon.WorkFlow.Outlook.vsto"

But as I said, I haven't used it before so I have no idea, how it's done.

Best regards,
Daniel
