openvr: Unable to load driver...error 103.

I’ve built and installed an OpenVR driver and called vrpathreg adddriver on the path, but when I try to start SteamVR, it gives me an error 103 in the log file.

A snippet from vrserver.txt:

Fri May 20 2016 00:57:28.132 - Unable to load driver osvr from c:\osvr32\lib\openvr\osvr\bin\win32\driver_osvr.dll.
Fri May 20 2016 00:57:28.132 - Unable to load driver osvr because of error 103. Skipping.

Output from vrpathreg:

Runtime path = C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\SteamVR\
Config path = C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\config
Log path = C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\logs
External Drivers:
        c:\osvr32\lib\openvr\osvr

Directory listing:

> tree /f c:\osvr32\lib\openvr
Folder PATH listing for volume BOOTCAMP
Volume serial number is 20E4-7F19
C:\OSVR32\LIB\OPENVR
+---osvr
    +---bin
        +---win32
                driver_osvr.dll
                driver_osvr.lib

It looks like error 103 is VRInitError_Init_FileNotFound, but the driver libraries are where I think they should be.

Any ideas as to what could trigger this error or how I could further troubleshoot it?

Thanks!

@moisesquintero would you mind explaining what you mean by ‘a wrong 64-bit version was being used’? I appear to be having a similar issue, only all of my dependencies appear to be 64-bit, as is the DLL.
