We have an application that uses a web service to perform a MSWord MailMerge. When we run it locally (i.e. client and server on same machine) it works fine, but when we deploy to a Windows 2003 Server, we get the following error in the client: Access is denied.
On the server side, the following is in the Event System Log: Event Type: Error Event Source: DCOM Event Category: None Event ID: 10002 Date: 8/28/2003 Time: 6:14:29 PM User: NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE Computer: IFCNLQINT-TEST Description: Access denied
attempting to launch a DCOM Server. The server is: {000209FF-0000-0000-C000-000000000046} The user is NETWORK SERVICE/NT AUTHORITY, SID=S-1-5-20. We've tried impersonation, dcomcnfg, etc., but no luck in resolving the error. Does anyone have any thoughts?
Thanks, Todd
Hi Todd If you dig out the fabulous FREE tools called regmon.exe and filemon.exe from www.sysinternals.com and run them youll see exactly the access is denied message and what account is trying to access what. This network service/nt authority account - check
it has log on over the network privileges on the dcom server. If you go into control panel and look at local security policy 0 i think u need to grant it access this computer from the network - or logon locally. Cant think whish at this time of night. Hope
that helps Cheers Gregor Suttie
