Win2K and webclasses

[compuGEEK]

Hi,

My webclass app runs fine on an NT4 Server but when I try to register the DLL on Win2K Server I get this error:

DllRegisterServer in [dll path] failed. Return code
was: 0x80004005

Has anyone encountered this before?

Thanks alot,

I've found some DLL's need to be recompiled on an Win2K machine before they will register correctly. I think it's because you are going from COM to COM+. It shouldn't matter, but i've found re-compiling on WIN2k often does the trick.

Hi Bill,

What I ended up doing was re-installing NT4 and deploying my webclass on that server and then upgrading the server to Win2K server. After that, it seemed to work fine.

It's frustrating though, because I would like to know what I need to do on a fresh install of Win2K instead of having to install NT4 first.

Do you know, off hand, which DLL's need to be updated?
The development machine is also a Win2K machine and I've recompiled the project and deployed from it.

Thanks :)
