  ASP compatibility mode error while creating Excel file using CreateObject(“XLSpeedGen.ASP”)

  Feb 12, 2019 05:23 PM|RGSenthil27|LINK

  When I am trying to create an Excel file using below code in my local machine (64-bit machine), I am getting below error.

  <%@ Page ASPCompat="True" language="vb" %>
  
  Dim XLS             ' Excel SpeedGen Object
  XLS = Server.CreateObject("XLSpeedGen.ASP")  <--- I am getting the error in this line
  XLS.AddVariable("Name", strName)
  XLS.Generate(SrcBook, "", False)

  Exception Details:

  System.Web.HttpException: An error was encountered while calling OnStartPage in ASP compatibility mode.

  Stack Trace:

  [HttpException (0x80004005): An error was encountered while calling OnStartPage in ASP compatibility mode.]
  System.Web.Util.AspCompatApplicationStep.OnPageStart(Object component) +3028336 System.Web.HttpServerUtility.CreateObject(String progID) +142

  I have registered "XLSpeedGenASP.dll" using below code in my local machine.

  regsvr32 "E:\XLSpeedGen\XLSpeedGenASP.dll"

  Still I am getting the same error. How to resolve the above mentioned issue?

  Hi RGSenthil27,

  According to your description and code, I have some confusion.

  Which version of the framework you've used in the project?

  Could you please provide the XLSpeedGenASP.dll file because I could not find it by searching online?

  And I could not reproduce your issue without this.

  System.Web.HttpException: An error was encountered while calling OnStartPage in ASP compatibility mode.

  Besides, as far as I'm concerned, the error happens may be because there exists some conflicts between ASPCompat="True" and OnPageStart.

  I suggest that you could try to change the version of platform as x86 in VS.

  

  And this is my VS version.

  

  Best Regards,

  Jenifer
