Hello,
I just installed TSilang (full source) 7.9.7.1 (I have Delphi 2007, 10.4 and 12.2 on my computer).
Under 10.4, Tsilang cannot be loaded. Here is what I find in package management (sorry it's in french).
Rougly it says: impossible to load package c:\Program Files(x86)\SiComponents\Tsilang\Units\Packages\Win32\Tsilang_XE104.bpl. The specified module cannot be found.

I checked that this package do exist in the folder.
What Am I to do ?
I just noticed that installation seems correct for Rad Studio 10.2 and the the path is rather different:
C:\Users\Public\Documents\Embarcadero\Studio\23.0\Bpl\TsiLang_12.bpl
Hello,
It looks like this IDE key in the registry was left from previous (older) installation of TsiLang Components Suite. Just click Remove and then Add and select TsiLang_XE104.bpl located in C:\Users\Public\Documents\Embarcadero\Studio\21.0\BPL as the version installs packages there. I would recommend to make a clear reinstall:
1. Close all IDEs.
2. Uninstall TsiLang Components Suite.
3. Check that all files were removed.
4. Perform new clean install.
This will ensure that you have installed all up-to-date versions of all files.
Hello,
Following your advice I uninstalled Tsilang, used ccleaner to remove orphan registry keys, rebooted the computer and re-installed Tsilang 7.9.7.1.
The install wizard auto-seleted RadStudio 12, and I manually added RadStudio 10.4 and CodeGear RadStudio 2007.
In RadStudio 10.4.2 packages manager, Tsilang is there, unselected. The path has changed since the first attempt.
It is now c:\users\dchesnet\Documents\Embarcadero\Studio\21\Bpl\TSilang_XE104.bpl.
This file exists, but if I try to add it, RadStudio says "the specified module is not found".
The folder C:\Users\Public\Documents\Embarcadero\Studio\21.0\Bpl is empty.
The install is ok in RadStudio 12 (C:\Users\Public\Documents\Embarcadero\Studio\23.0\Bpl\TsiLang_12.bpl)
What can I do ?
Regards,
David
Edit: I explored the registry and found something weird in\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Embarcadero\BDS\21.0\Package Cache\TsiLang_XE104.bpl.
The "package group" key has values:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\SiComponents\TsiLang\Units\Packages\Win32\TsiLang_XE104.bpl",C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\TsiLang_XE104r.bpl
I didn't find any Tsilang file in c:\windows\system32.
Are there any other BPLs in the folder: c:\users\dchesnet\Documents\Embarcadero\Studio\21\Bpl\ and they are installed into RAD Studio 10.4?
Are there also the TsiLang_XE104r.bpl file?
Because it is strange that the file was installed into this folder, as usual location would be the sub-folder under C:\Users\Public\Documents\Embarcadero\Studio\21.0\.
So, please check the availability of TsiLang_XE104r.bpl as the design-time package TsiLang_XE104.bpl loads the run-time package TsiLang_XE104r.bpl.
C:\Users\Public\Documents\Embarcadero\Studio\21.0\Bpl is empty.
C:\Users\dchesnet\Documents\Embarcadero\Studio\21.0\Bpl contains:
Tsilang_XE104.bpl, Tsilang_XE104r.bpl, siInternetTranslator_XE104r;bpl and a Win64 folder (which contains TsiLang_XE104r.bpl and siInternetTranslator_XE104r.bpl).

It is strange that the error message doesn't display which module it can't load. TsiLang_XE104.bpl loads 2 other BPLs and they do exist in the folder as I can see. If you remove the TsiLang package from the list in Packages Manager and then add it manually. Does the error message differ?
Will the error message gone if you copy both packages with "r" suffix into Windows's system32 folder?
I copied both packages with "r" suffix into Windows's system32 folder. It didn't help.
Then I copied the content of C:\Users\dchesnet\Documents\Embarcadero\Studio\21.0\Bpl to C:\Users\Public\Documents\Embarcadero\Studio\21.0\Bpl, and it worked, I was able to add C:\Users\Public\Documents\Embarcadero\Studio\21.0\Bpl\TsiLang_XE104.bpl using the package manager.
To help circumvent the trouble, I removed the package, closed the IDE, deleted the packages with "r" from the System32 folder. Then re-open the IDE and reselected Tsilang_XE104.bpl. I worked like a charm.
It seems that the problem lies in a confusion between my user account and the public folder.
I finally had a permission problem with C:\Program Files (x86)\SiComponents\TsiLang\Units when compiling my project: "cannot write siConst.dcu". I had to add my user account on this folder and give it write permission.
If it can help, I attached a list of the registry keys of BDS21.0 related to Tsilang (a zipped txt file).
Thanks for helping !
