asp_cdo thread: Cannot initialize a CDOEXM object

Message #1 by "Fran�ois St-Maurice" <frankstm@h...> on Thu, 30 Aug 2001 14:49:31

Hello everyone.



I am trying to create a mail enabled recipient in Exchange 2000. 

Unfortunately, I am unable to initialize my CDOEXM object. The following 

line of code generates the error:



------------------------------

Set objMailbox = Server.Createobject("CDOEXM.IMailboxStore")

------------------------------



Server object error 'ASP 0177 : 800401f3' 



Server.CreateObject Failed 



/usermanager/user/save.asp, line 12 



Invalid ProgID. For additional information specific to this message please 

visit the Microsoft Online Support site located at: 

http://www.microsoft.com/contentredirect.asp. 

------------------------------



Any ideas why this is happening?



Thanks in advance.

You need to use the following code:



Set objPerson = CreateObject("CDO.Person")

Set objMailboxStore = objPerson.GetInterface("IMailboxStore")



Also, you might want to check

http://www.cdolive.net/samples/adusermanagement.eml for a bunch of WSH

scripts which can easily be changed to run as VBScript code from ASP.

Thanks for the link!



Alas, I get the same error message trying to execute :

Set objPerson = CreateObject("CDO.Person")



It is very confusing for me because I can successfully create a ADSI user 

using this code:



Set objContainer = GetObject("LDAP://domain.com/DC=domain,DC=com")

Set objUser = objContainer.Create("user", "CN=Francois St-Maurice"))



It's as if my Exchange 2000 server did not install CDO dll's 

successfully...

You are trying to run this code locally on your Exchange 2000 Server and

it fails on that line Set objPerson =3D CreateObject("CDO.Person")?



If so, I'd probably reinstall the machine (it is a development or test

machine, isn't it?) because you should be able to create this object

without any problem.

I went to your site and executed CreateContactWithCDOEXM.wsf locally on my 

Exchange server. It works perfectly!



I guess my problem resides in my IIS server and Exchange server not being 

on the same machine.



I will try making all my mailbox managing in a local wsf file and call it 

from my ASP code. I guess that should work...



Thanks again for those tools...they will be very handy. If you have any 

other suggestions for me, I'm all ears!

Well, you didn't tell that you tried to execute your app on another

machine than the Exchange 2000 Server ;-)) This might bring up some

issues with missing components (as you already figured out).



If you want to run CDOEXM stuff on another machine than the Exchange

2000 Server you must at least install the Exchange 2000 System

Management tools (from the Exchange 2000 setup CD) and the same service

pack as you Exchange 2000 Server has.



I might have some more tools in the near future. The Website is still

under construction but make sure to check back every now and then ;-)
