Its not server/pc based. It is like this:
MFB website requires new version of MFB EA to be installed on your MT4
MFB EA requires your MT4 build to be the new one as well. (It did not work on my mt4 ver 890)


Question again ;)

What happens when you try to install the EA with the automatic installer ?

Hi,

I use manual procedure (replacing dll and ea) because it is a documented in the website
and therefore *should be* a valid procedure.

Message error "Myfxbook.dll' is not 32-bit version" is tipical message from missing dlls.

OK. The x86 dependency walker is telling me that the following DLLs are missing:
API-MS-WIN-CORE-COM-L1-1-0.DLL
API-MS-WIN-CORE-WINRT-ERROR-L1-1-0.DLL
API-MS-WIN-CORE-WINRT-L1-1-0.DLL
API-MS-WIN-CORE-WINRT-ROBUFFER-L1-1-0.DLL
API-MS-WIN-CORE-WINRT-STRING-L1-1-0.DLL
API-MS-WIN-SHCORE-SCALING-L1-1-0.DLL
DCOMP.DLL
GPSVC.DLL
IESHIMS.DLL

This problem is related to missing the Visual studio "redistributable package." It is not obvious which one is missing based on the dependency walk, but I would try the one that corresponds with the compiler version used by myfxbook developers.
VS 2015
VS 2013
VS 2010
VS 2008

Maybe, support team could confirm that and indicate which one distributable package need to be installed to avoid trial and error tasks (and update website manual procedure instructions).

It did install the newest version
But this newest version did not execute on chart unless the MT4 build is the new one

Could it be that you also use Windows Server ??

Katakuja,

This error is independent from Windows edition you use, anyway....

I have the same problem on Windows 7 HP 64b (home PC)
and Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard (VPS).

Im asking because i had last night the same problems on a Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard.

First i installed the EA manually,
blah blah dll, blah cannot find toggleDebug, blah"Message error 'Myfxbook.dll' is not 32-bit version'"



Then tried it with the EAInstaller. Fail again. Message: 'Cant install Net 2.0 part of Net 3.5 aso'

wtf ?? Why 3.5 ??

Knew i had the newest Version of Net4 on the Server but tried it again to install.
With a external Net4.51installer, Message : "Your Net4.51 is up to date"

Okk, hmm..

Theeen,
whent to Server Manager -> Add Roles and Features -> found there NET 3.5 Framework ??? (half checked)
checked all of it, installed it, reboot

tried again the EAInstaller,


and voila everything works fine now !


Thats why i asked about using Server..

;)

Thanks Katajuja, your input was very valuable and helped me solve this issue. I followed your steps and everything words now.

It's incredible that mfb messed up that way.

It's all fine now.

Guys
it is not OS/Server dependent
I have multiple MT4 instances on same server
Guess what soem of them are updating with old MFB EA 1.79
Some of them works nice with new 1.81
Some of them wont work even with the new version

Look at my profile how many accounts I have to deal with...
OMG

There are no magic things in software, only bugs...

Because support team is not doing their job, I had to do myself.

Finally I have installed from "EA Installer.exe", previously I have copied EA
and DLL manually as indicated in the website.

Well, so simple, the DLL included in EA Installer is different from the
DLL you can download directly. EA is the same.

No problem with the DLL included in the EA Installer,
**** DLL you can download directly from the website do not work ****
(Error msg: Myfxbook.dll' is not 32-bit)

all I keep getting is error message: please use latest EA version, but I have downloaded newest, using 1.82 and no other error messages - any help?

yes, second to forexfusion; I closed the terminals, deleted the original ea + dll, and installed the newest version, and restarted terminals, but it still stats "please update EA" on the expert tab.
Any advice?

for me Ethan in support helped me fix my issue (thanks to Ethan!):
The problem was with my account at myfxbook. I had to delete the account from my myfxbook portfolio, I didnt know that it was already there. Once I deleted it there, I was able to delete all and the reinstall everything on my MT4 and it worked fine.

Delete ex4 file in MQL/experts
Delete dd file in MQL/libraries
Close MT4. Install EA via MFB installer.
Run MT4
Attach EA to chart again
