DCOM and MTS help needed

Hi !,

I have created a DCOM object and have deployed it in MTS. I am using this object in my Project. When I packaged and distributed( remote sever files also included) , Instead of calling the object from the MTS (in MMC the object is not turning by itself when the project is running) its reffering the object from the same machine where the project is installed(its working also). When I created the package I have included the DCOM object also ( or should I not include the DCOM object when I create the setup programme).

Can any one tell me how to package and distribute a project which uses MTS for object deployment.

Thanks in advance

First, MTS only allows you to install DLL's, and DCOM objects are only EXE's, so I guess that you have some DLL components you want to install into MTS on a server and access them through DCOM right?

Well, you install your components in the Servers MTS, then you create an Export package of the installe package. Create it as a Proxy.

Next on the client machine, wich must exist in the same network, you run the exe file generated by MTS. This installs a proxy in the client machne so when the object is called from the client, it will call the Server MTS object trhough DCOM.

Good Luck,

André

hi
what u do is while creating a package do not include ur dll which is supposed to be in MTS and instead of that include the vbr file for that DLL.

when ur running the package on a client machine it will prompt ur for a network machine on which the MTS is installed.

this should help u
