I'm getting this error after I transfer to a new hosting company that is using linux os. The hosting company has no clue. Please help.

Server object error 'ASP 0177 : 800401f3'

Server.CreateObject Failed

/brandsub.asp, line 13

Systemmessage, messageid = 0x800401f3


The line of code that bombs out is as follows:

Set xml = Server.CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")


The code is Creating an XMLDOM object in order to read an XML file residing on the site

Try MSXML2.DOMDocument

bmains

can you please show me how you would enter the line in?

now is like this.

Set xml = Server.CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")

how can i put it using MSXML2.DOMDocument?

Thank you again..

Hello,

set xml = Server.CreateObject("MSXML2.DOMDocument")

This is how I used it for MSXML version 4.0 of the microsoft parser. I guess I should ask this first, what version are you using?

I may be missing something, but the original poster talked about Linux. Is the Linux box running ChilliSoft ASP to run your ASP pages?

Is the Microsoft XML library available for Linux??????

Cheers,

The linux box is running Chillisoft ASP. Can you give me a hand here. Thanks

Right, that explains a lot.

ChilliSoft ASP is a Linux implementation of Microsoft ASP version 2.0 (although there may be a 3.0 version as well)
I think they sort of reverse-engineered ASP for Linux so many basic stuff works.

However, I can't believe the also reverse-engineered stuff like COM, so it's highly unlikely you can run the Microsoft XML stuff on your Linux box, but I could be wrong.

I think you should either sue your host or switch to another that does support real ASP....
