Hi all! I am attempting to register a basic COM dll on a Windows Server 2008 standard box.
I run regsvr32 capicom.dll
and it reports DllRegisterServer in capicom.dll succeeded
. This is the same process we've used for years on Windows Server 2003.
Sadly, when I attempt to create the object via a very very basic Microsoft vbscript example Set oStore = CreateObject("CAPICOM.Store")
it throws a "ActiveX component can't create object" error.
Thinking maybe it was a problem with this dll, I tried a few other DLLs we use with the same result. I tried using the regsvr32 in system, system32, and syswow64 all with the same result. I don't know too much about the differences between each of those, but figured it was worth a shot.
The dll is being stored on the d:\ and seems to have correct permissions (though that'd be a different error altogether).
Thanks to any help or thoughts you might have!
