I have created a COM component and this is what I've hit so far:
With regards to the Server I have no problems, as long as my client is running on the same space (computer) as my Server COM it runs just fine.
Question though:
1.) How come I need to manually run the EXE COM in order for it to be usable even if I've setted its option to 'Unattended Execution'? What does 'Unattended Execution' mean? Maybe I misunderstood what it does.
Client side: this is where the problems start!
These are the settings I've setted so far:
1.) I'm creating an ActiveX EXE.
2.) EXE is setted to 'Unattended Execution'.
3.) EXE is setted to 'Remote Server Files'.
4.) .VBR and .TLB are included in the packages I've created.
5.) The IP address of the COM Server are setted properly and the server computer can be located through PING.
6.) The client COM is setted to look for Server COM in the address of its location.
7.) The client COM is registered with CLIREG32 and setted to run on DCOM and the corresponding IP Address.
These are the problems I've encountered:
1.) 'Active X EXE object can not be created.'
2.) 'Remote machine does not exist or can not be found'.
Questions:
1.) What does the error mean? Does it mean that it is trying to look for the COM component in the particular machine and can not seem to find it, or does it mean that it is looking foro the component on the local comuter and can not find it?
2.) Do I have to register the Server COM?
3.) Please try to explain the possible causes of errors.
* Thank you *
