ActiveX component can't create object: 'WebIServer'

64 bit windows 2003 server
BO 6.5.1
IIS 6.0

When i try to hit the login button of wiasp page I get the error -

Microsoft VBScript runtime error ‘800a01ad’
ActiveX component can’t create object: ‘WebIServer’

I never encountered this error when i tried to install on a windows 2003 32 bit server.

Looking up for this error suggests that it could be an issue with the dlls like, dlls missing, dll versioning, dlls not registered, permission issue etc

If anyone encountered this issue earlier, Please let me know what exactly solved the issue for you.

Thanks in advance!!

My colleague fixed the issue - this was the resolution -

  1. set Enable32bitApponWin64 = true
  2. run the aspnet_regiis.exe -i in the mirosoft.net folder\framework\2.0XXX

Hope this helps for someone facing a similar issue. :slight_smile:
