Unknown ASP error

[dg043]

I have Internet Information Services 5.1 running on a Windows XP Service Pack 2 platform. I am developing an ASP application on another machine (which I believe is identical [IIS v5.1, WXP SP 2, etc]) using Visual Basic 6.0. When I have deployed the project using the included Package & Deployment Wizard, I can access the ASP page OK. However, when I deploy this project to my other machine, I receive an 'ASP 0177 : 0x800A01F3' error when I try to open the ASP page. Any ideas?

just a guess but since you mentioned VB6 and Package & Deployment maybe you are making some AciveX DLLs for use in your web app...

If so these need to be registered just like any other COM object. The little installer created by the Package & Deploy wiz will do this automatically but you can do it manually using regsvr32.exe

Thanks very much. That was exactly the problem. I might have figured that out eventually, as I have had a different problem with the same solution, in the past. But thanks again for reminding me
