The call to Server.CreateObject failed while checking permissions.

Hi all..

I was struggling with this error while trying to run an ASP page under IIS
6.0 (Windows Server 2003).

The complete error is:
"The call to Server.CreateObject failed while checking permissions. Access
is denied to this object. "

I tried everything. Giving full control permissions to COM directory to all
imaginable users and groups (including IUSR_machinename, even when I don't
allow anonymous users to the site), giving full control permissions to that
users in Component Services console, and I even added roles to COM+
applications. But none of that worked.

I have followed recommendations of a lot of sites telling about that
problem, but the problem doesn't disappear.

Any help will be greatly appreciated
Thanks

Re: The call to Server.CreateObject failed while checking permissions.

What is the component written it? Does the account the site is running under
have permissions to execute all other dependent DLLs?

I had this the other day with a VB COM DLL I wrote, discovered that the
MSVB6VM.DLL in the System32 folder did not have execute permission for the
IUSR account and that was causing the error.
