Activate COM Object Using Website Doesn't Work In Windows 2003 Server
Apr 12, 2010
I have been trying really hard to activate and launch a COM object using an ASP.NET web application. The aspx website has a code-behind file that has a reference to this COM object (which is an actual application -a CAD software). When required, the VB code creates (or launches) the application.
The complete set-up works in a Win-XP (32-bit) environment both under debugging using visual studio and when the website is accessed by an outside user (through IIS server in XP). But the same application doesn't get activated when it is hosted onto the Win-2003 (32-bit) IIS server. I get "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" error.
The way I have setup in Win-XP was to grant ASP user and Internet guest user permissions to the COM object in the DCOM Config and since the windows firewall is enabled, I add the exe file (associated with the COM object) to the exception list. For the case of Win-2003 server, I add the Network Service permission to the COM object. But the setup doesn't seem to work at all. I am not sure what I am missing and how to get the application to launch.
I created (and used) a Windows Media Encoder object in Microsoft Visual C# 2008 Express Edition on MS Server 2003 64 bit. This worked fine.
However, when I attempted to create the equivalent Windows Media Encoder object using Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2008 on MS Server 2003 64 bit, the following exception was thrown:
"Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {632B606A-BBC6-11D2-A329-006097C4E476} failed due to the following error: 80040154."
It cannot be that the component isn't registered, because both have a reference to the same WMEncEng.dll file. The Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2008 code also worked fine on XP 32 bit.
I have developed a website in ASP.NET and deployed on IIS 6.0 server on windows Server 2003.I used asp.net 2.0,SQL server 2005,AJAX and javascript .It is working.The problem I have that this website is slow. How did I deployed website on IIS? I went to Build-->Publish Web Site and it then created a folder with all pages, I simply copied that folder on webserver and put path in IIS. Is that a correct way to deploy aps.net webite or not? let me know is any other best way to deploy website that can make my website faster.
when I deploy a website in IIS Windows Server 2003 R2 . First time deploy, it seemed no problem at all (fyi, the one who deploy for the first time is not me, but my friend) but after one or two days this problem occur. I can't browse from IIS and Internet Explorer. In Internet Explorer the page display:
"Internet Explorer cannot display the website." The worse, no error log data ever produced in Application category in Event Viewer.
I've tried change the address from localhost to 127.0.0.1 but the response is still the same. I even tried access just localhost alone. It should display the default homepage from IIS but the response is still the same too. I've checked IIS' Web Service Extension, the Active Server Pages and ASP.NET 2.0 are set to allowed. I also have tried make a virtual directory with just index.html inside and the response is still the same.
FYI: The server seems run in 64 bit (HP Proliant server). The website I build only used ASP.NET Ajax 1.0 and Crystal Report for VS 2005. From the server, I can access the internet but not the localhost.
I am installing MS Visual Studio 2010 on my PC and will develop website on it. I have developed my old asp.net websites on MS Visual Studio2005.Our webserver where we publish our websites on Windows Server 2003.I want to know that whether we can publish websites develop in MS Visual Studio 2010 on Windows Server 2003?
Environment.WorkingSet incorrectly reports the memory usage for a web site that runs on Windows 2003 Server.(OS Vers: Microsoft Windows NT 5.2.3790 Service Pack 2, .NET Vers: 2.0.50727.3607)
It reports memory as Working Set(Physical Mem.): 1952 MB (2047468061).
Same web site runs locally on Windows Vista with a Working Set(Physical Mem.): 49 MB (51924992).
I have limited access to the server and support is so limited.
so i have computed the total memory by traversing with VirtualQuery.
Total of pages with state: MEM_FREE is 1300 MB.
(I guess server have 4 GBs of RAM and PAE is not enabled, max user mode virtual address is 0x7fff0000.)
So, i know working set is not only about virtual memory. But, is it normal to have such a high working set while its very low on another machine?
Does anyone know of any requirements to get the Ajax Control Toolkit (Calendar Extension in particular) working in this OS? I have it working on my local macjine (VS 2010 Development Server) but it doesn't work when published to my Virtual Server running Windows Server 2008 R2. No errors are reported, just nothing happens when I give focus to the Calendar textbox (no Calendar appears).Anyone know of any configutrations that need to be made in Windows Server 2008 R2?Is there a 32-bit/64-bit issue with the Toolkit?
I'm running windows 7, so I installed on my machine the oracle client version 11.1.0.7.0 (ODP.NET - Oracle.DataAccess version 2.111.7.20) . I'm trying to deploy an asp.net web application to a server that is running windows 2003, which has the oracle client version 11.1.0.6.0 (ODP.NET - Oracle.DataAccess Version 2.111.6.20)
Now when I compile my application and deploy it in a setup project (as pre-compiled). The start page of my web app tires to connect to Oracle and it returns the following error message:
"Could not load file or assembly 'Oracle.DataAccess, Version=2.111.7.20, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89b483f429c47342' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified."
Which is super weird because, cause the web.config file as shown above has Version=2.111.6.20.
Now the strange part is that if I copy the source code from the client to the server, the same code, same config file, it works just fine.
So I'm thinking that the pre-compiled version is telling the server to load Oracle.DataAccess Version=2.111.7.20, maybe in one of the dlls, not in the config file for sure.
Has anyone run into this problem?
what's the best approach to deploy to servers with different oracle client version? (I have a similar problem trying to deploy to a 64 bit machine)
I have a small function that is in a STA thread. It's purpose is to copy the selected image in word document to clipboard and then save it to a location on the hard drive. Here is the code that works fine on XP and Windows server 2003.
It does not work on Windows server 2008 on IIS 7.0 Is there some known WP Identity issues or any other kind of security issues in cross process memory sharing?
I have windows server 2003 machine. I want to run a site that uses asp.net 2.0. By default there is asp.net 1.1. Then I installed .net framework 2.0 but still site uses asp.net 1.1 and give errors. How i run site with asp.net 2.0?
I have a really weird problem that I've been investigating for at least one week now. I deliver a website hosting both ASP classic and .NET 3.5 content in IIS6 on a Windows 2003 server environment with MySQL db backend. The solution has been installed on several servers (some hosted in WMWare) with no problems. On one specific server, also hosted in WMWare, the user experience great performance issues on the website. The problems are most seen when using database resources and is not limited to either .net or asp classic, but I am still not sure that the problem is only related to database calls.
Following components are involved:
IIS6 .NET FW 3.5 MyODBC 3.51 / 5.1 MySQL 4.x
Code executed on the server using all resources above runs smoothly when the IIS is not involved. The website shows times up to 2 minutes to execute code that takes 2 seconds outside the IIS. The exact same code is executed. Using profiling tools, I've seen that the great loss comes within calls to unmanaged code, for example when System.Data.ODBC namespace to calls into myodbc.dll.
The tricky part is: If at least one console user is logged in to the server, the performace problems are not seen anymore. When the user logs out, the problem appears again.I have tried to reinstall all components above, tried different versions of MyODBC, tried different website authentication methods, tried to run website under administrator privilegies, installed various MS KB's with no success.
