Automation Error during Remote Procedure Call (RPC) using DCOM and Automation Manager
Could anyone help me that I got an error called Automation Error (Error No.
-217....) during processing the RPC through DCOM or Automation Manager
(OLE) ?
(Case 1)
My running application is an Client / Server application sample provided by
VB 5.0 Enterprise, which is called "Booksales". In standalone mode, the
application run perfectly. Then I try to change the settings of the server
application from Local to Remote mode and set the IP address on the Client
Registory through CLIREG32.EXE. An Automation Error occurs when the
application run in Remote mode. Can anyone tell me what are the wrongs of
mine? How can I call a remote server application?
(Case 2)
Instead of using the Automation Manager, I try to run the same application
using DCOM. The result is the same. There is no error in standalone mode.
However in running on remote mode, an Automation Error will occur. Did
anyone has any idea on my situation.
Please give some comments to me. Thank you very much for any help!
