Hi,

I made a small product using Google APIs. Now i need to sell it to my client.

I made installer and simply added all APIs. But now it is showing error of type COM.

How can i resolve this issue?

+1  A: 

If you are talking about http://code.google.com/p/google-api-for-dotnet/ then thats under a mit license http://www.opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.php which means you can distribute it as long as the copyright text is included with the software.

A: 

have you copied all the dll's on the target system (and if needed registered them)?

what is the exact message and err-code you get from your managed exception?

A: 

It is zero hassle redistributable if you just take and redistribute the binaries (actual dlls as published by Google) since in that case you are legally just using the binary.

If you compile the code for these dlls-s on your own or do any changes to their source then you are going to need a lawyer :-). MIT License is not infective but would still require attribution for a derivative work.

If you are going to have your own licensing text in your package than you should add a simple line like:

[Uses libraries made by iron9light and provided under MIT License]

That's attribution - big word for a little line :-)
