Previous Versions

CemViewer Version 2.2.0000 OVS-Viewer 1.0.0000

October 26, 2009

  • The CemViewer is being transitioned into the OVS-Viewer which can open both CemViewer files and ObitViewer files this update contains the OVS-Viewer version 1.0.0000 (CemViewer 2.2.0000, ObitViewer 1.0.0000). The ObitViewer and the CemViewer both use the Starter.box to launch the viewer.

Version 2.1.0003b

October 21, 2009

  • INSTALLATION ERROR: A rare error on Vista systems "Error 52 Bad file name or number". This error occurs during installation and is caused by a registry entry that occurs only when the CemViewer is not launched after install, or run previously to trying to start using the Starter.box from CD or distribution folders. The CemViewer still corrects the registry entries automatically when started from the Start menu and this has not changed in this update. This is an update to the setup file to avoid this error in Vista systems even if the CemViewer is not run before using the Starter.box file.
  • On previous versions of the CemViewer, the setup versions do not remove the version information from the add and remove programs screen in windows. Before installing this update it is necessary to uninstall previous version to remove them from the list, but will not be necessary on any future versions.
