ServerXMLHTTP returns error 424

[Jonas Schiöld]

On a Windows Server 2003 SP1with MSXML 6 installed. No proxy server is used.
Extraction of ASP code:

Set objHTTP = Server.CreateObject("MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP.4.0")
objHTTP.open "GET", strDynURL, false
objHTTP.send()

After this err.number is 424 and err.desciption is empty.
And objHTTP.responseText returns "ÿþ" (excluding the quotes).

The code works fine on two other Windows XP Pro computers.

I find no documentation of an error 424 anywhere.

Any ideas?

424 = object not found ..... you must ensure the MSXML 4 controls are
installed and correctly registered on the machine.

At least I think it is installed correctly. I installed the latest version of
MSXML and the error description was empty. But maybe you are right anyway.
I'll try again.
How do I know if it is installed correctly?

Thanks
Jonas

I explicitly fetched version 4.0 and didn't realize that when I installed
ver 6, I didn't automagically got ver 4 too. When I changed it to use version
6 instead it worked!
Thanks!

But now I got a problem with non-ansi characters, like the swedish accented,
letters for example. Do you have a quick fix for that?

The error you are receiving determines this for you (if you were not getting
this error it would determine that it is installed and registered correctly)

Unfortunately I don't no. Someone in the
microsoft.public.interserver.asp.general newsgroup may be able to help you
with this.
