Hi,

The error message already gave you some suggestions. Are you sure there are installed required libs on the target machine? For more details, regarding required libs, see this page:
https://www.ranorex.com/help/latest/ran ... uirements/
Basically, you must install these libs, either manually or via Ranorex setup, on each machine, on which you want to run Ranorex tests. Hope this helps?

Hi ,
Thanks for your response.
Our VS application which calls ranorex test cases(.exe) are functioning as below

Server(VS application & Ranorex Test script code.exe present ) -> Test Device ( where the test scripts should be executed via Agent)

Cmd prompt Execution is passed but when host VS app in IIS we get the above mentioned error

Kinldy confirm the mentioned libs and softwares in the below link should also be installed in the Test device ?

Note : we are using Ranorex 9.1.1

Hi,

If you click link Ranorex Studio 9.1 (on system requirement page), you should be redirected to list of all required libs, which must be installed on target test system. Hope this helps? If I were you, I would simply install entire Ranorex Studio on target system. All required libs are installed automatically, except SDK for .NET Framework 4.6.2. I believe, that this one was added in Ranorex 9.2 setup.
