Server object, ASP 0177 (0x800401F3) Invalid Class String

[Kevin]

First of all, I have read all of the solutions I could possibly find for this
issue. Secondly, none of them work for me.

I am using: WinXP Pro SP2, VB6, ASP

Here is a breakdown of my problem:

- I have created a custom ActiveX DLL named DLObjects with a class named
DLFactory.
- I have registered this DLL
- I created a COM+ application and set the Identity to the Administrator
account
- I CAN instantiate the DLL with VB6
- I CAN NOT instantiate the DLL with ASP
- I have verified it is registered
- I have verified IUSR and IWAM accounts have access to the DLL folder
- I have used other third-party DLLs without an issue

Here is the abridged code:

<%
Dim Factory
Set Factory = Server.CreateObject("DLObjects.DLFactory") '<-- Error here.
Yes, it is spelled correctly
Set Factory = Nothing
%>

As stated before, I am able to use this DLL without issue in VB6 on the same
machine. I am also able to copy to DLL to a Win2k3 machine, register, and
use it in ASP.

This is driving me completely mad as I have been programming professionally
for 13 years and have NEVER had an issue that has stumped me like this... I
am sure it is something simple (but my pride hopes otherwise). Any and all
insights into this issue is more than appreciated.

Please remember that I have read and tried all of the solutions for this and
none have worked so please do not suggest these
basic-easy-to-find-already-checked answers:

- IUSR/IWAM Permissions
- Registering DLL / COM+
- Checking the spelling

Thanks again in advance for your help!!

Other DLLs, like msado15.dll, also has the same error when unregerster then
re-regerster using regsvr32.exe.

Sorry, numbers hardly do count.
Try to run regmon from sysinternals and filemon. You -will- see what is
missing or what permission is wrong.
