Error Message:
The application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect.
Received this error after submitting an application written in C++ to the Microsoft HPC Server 2008 cluster. To fix it, simply install the Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package on the compute nodes. I recommend you install both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions as you may have some users compiling their applications in 32-bit and some in 64-bit.
