s7epaapi64x.dll missing from S&Plus Driver

Post by mikek10 »

Hi,

I have WinccOA v3.17.03 running on Windows 10, this has been working fine but today I have started getting an error when trying to start S7Plus Driver: "The code exectution cannot proceed because s7epaapi64x.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem".

I have tried running the installer on repair but this has had no effect. I am reluctant to completely uninstall and reinstall unless absolutely necessary. I have searched HDD for this file and it is in the folder: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Siemens\Automation\Simatic OAM\bin

EDIT:
I bit the bullet and did a complete uninstall and reinstall but the same problem remains! :cry:

EDIT 2:
TIA Portal has also started crashing when trying to go online, it is reporting: 'Siemens.Automation.OnlineAccess.S7DosWrapper.dll' missing

I checked our source code a little bit and It looks like the dll file is part of the S7DOS installation.
Can you please check the installation for S7DOS on your system.
