I am trying to install HAI Web-Link II on my WHS, and am stuck with a "Server.CreateObject Access Error". The troubleshooting is written for XP or NT and says to Run DCOMCNFG.EXE and describes a dialogue box with certain tabs and choices to add a "Registry
Value Permission" in the Default Access Permissions frame. In WHS I can frin DCOMCNFG, but it doesn't look as described, so I'm lost how to do this. My "Windows Home Server Unleashed" book by Paul McFedries is also leaving me in the dark here. The
text from the troubleshooting page looks like this....
Accessing Web-Link II displays the error "Server.CreateObject Access Error" when running Windows 2000
or Windows XP Professional.
Appropriate permissions to access and launch the Out-Of-Process (OOP) COM object has not been set.
You need to give the IUSR_<machine_name> account permissions to launch and access your OOP COM object using dcomcnfg by doing the following:
1. Launch DCOMCNFG by clicking Start, selecting Run, and typing "Dcomcnfg" in the Run dialog box.
2. In the Default Security tab, click the "Edit Default" in the "Default Access Permissions" frame.
The Registry Value Permissions dialog box appears.
3. Add the IUSR_<machine_name>account and the INTERACTIVE account to the Registry Value Permissions dialog box, and click OK.
4. In the Default Security tab, click the Edit Default in the Default Launch Permissions frame. The Registry Value Permissions dialog box appears.
5. Add the IUSR_<machine_name> account to the Registry Value Permissions dialog box0, and click OK.
Any ideas as to a workaround or fix for this? Thanks!!
