Appcrash while running the windows application after installing the setup

Question

I have developed a windows application in visual studio 2012 and deployed the application using Installshield. When I install the application in 32-bit system it works fine, but while I install in 64-bit system, it installs fine but after installing the application is not opening throwing and error that,

Problem Signature:

Problem Event Name: APPCRASH Application Name: sappln.exe Fault Module Name: KERNALBASE.DLL and more it goes on..

In configuration Manager, I have specified Release -> Any CPU Can anyone give some solutions to avoid this error?

Thanks in advance!!

Some more details of the error might be useful. Can you add what you have described as '..and more it goes on'? — simon at rcl, Apr 22 '14 at 11:46
My money is on fact that you reference COM library (interop) that has just 32 bit alignment; or you compile your code explicitly to x32 - compilation should target MSIL if you want to deploy same binaries both to x32 and x64. — Ondrej Svejdar, Apr 22 '14 at 11:48
how to target the compilation to MSIL, according to me it wil be done automatically by the .net — JohnRambo, Apr 22 '14 at 11:52
By default it is MSIL, but you can set it otherwise. Also all you dependencies should be MSIL - check your bin folder if is that so (reference http://stackoverflow.com/questions/270531/how-to-determine-if-a-net-assembly-was-built-for-x86-or-x64) — Ondrej Svejdar, Apr 22 '14 at 12:27

Seems like you are using libaries that can't run on x64 platforms. What libaries are you using?

Also check if your program does anything "special" upon startup.

This should keep you out.

Good luck!

i have so many libraries totally 9 lib's... Can we change that inorder to work at 64-bit – JohnRambo Apr 22 '14 at 12:39
can anyone say what to do? – JohnRambo Apr 22 '14 at 13:28
Did you write the libaries yourself? – user3514987 Apr 22 '14 at 13:42
how can we write? I am speaking about dll's – JohnRambo Apr 22 '14 at 13:53
DLL is also a libary. These DLL Files are you the writer of those or did you download them ? Post the name of all the DLL files. – user3514987 Apr 22 '14 at 14:13
i have downloaded them, sapnco.dll, sapnco_utils.dll,DBReader.dll,INIFileParser.dll,SAP.Connector.dll,SAPConnectionManager.dll,Spire.DataExport.dll – JohnRambo Apr 23 '14 at 05:13
Good. One of more of these libaries does not work on x64. So you have to go the website of these DLL files to check if they have a x64 version. – user3514987 Apr 23 '14 at 08:05
ok thanks i wil check with that.... so after getting the 64bit version i wanna replace that dll's right? – JohnRambo Apr 23 '14 at 10:19
No you cannot just replace. Then it won't work on 32 bit. You have to change your code so it checks for the Architecture. Else compile two different versions - one with X64 and one with X32. – user3514987 Apr 23 '14 at 10:48
yeah yeah!! I gonna generate setup fro 2 versions separately so, i wil replace the dll for 64-bit setup alone... Thanks for your initiative mate, if it works I wil comeback and post here :) – JohnRambo Apr 23 '14 at 11:12
Glad I could help. Go Go Go Go ! – user3514987 Apr 23 '14 at 11:48
