Hi,
I am about to yank more hair form my head here. I created a COM+
Application. It uses the following dlls

3party.dll
Microsoft.Pract ices.Enterprise Library.Data.dl l
Microsoft.Pract ices.Enterprise Library.Common. dll
Microsoft.Pract ices.Enterprise Library.Configu ration.dll

The com+ application (Server) works fine on my development machine. I even
created a webservice on my machine that comsumes this com+ dll and it works
excellent. I am even able to consume the webservice form another machine via
a vb.net app. (remember the COM+ PACKAGE and WEBSERVICE is hosted on my
development machine).

I then exported the the COM+ package, as server applicaion, to .MSI file and
then installed it on my server. The installation was successful. From the
server I then expotred an "Applicatio n Proxy" to be installed on client
machine. During the installation of the proxy on the client machine, which
will be consuming the COM+ package and hosting the webservice to do so, I get
the error

{"An error occurred creating the form. See Exception.Inner Exception for
details. The error is: Could not load file or assembly 3partydll,
Version=3.0.207 0.0, Culture=neutral , PublicKeyToken= cdc18889cffe9cf ' or one
of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified."}

Question1:
Do I also have to deploy all the .dlls used by the COM+ component to the
client machine(s)? If so, doesn't this defeat the purpose of the COM+ Server
Component as being the server hosted on a separate machine?
Question2:
Why didn't my app prompted for the additional .dlls
Microsoft.Pract ices.Enterprise Library.Data.dl l
Microsoft.Pract ices.Enterprise Library.Common. dll
Microsoft.Pract ices.Enterprise Library.Configu ration.dll?
Question3:
What's a good book available for reference on COM+. I have been on this
project for weeks and ready to deploy to production and finelly these issues?
This COM+ CRAP IS DEFINITELY NOT EASY!!!

Thanks guys.

Yes, which is why all you need on the client is the proxy.

Don't know but they probably need to be in the GAC or your application directory.

I've only worked with COM+ and VB 6.0 components so I'm afraid I can't recommend a .NET book.

"Yes, which is why all you need on the client is the proxy."

Are you saying that the .dlls need to be on the clinet on which I installed
the proxy?

Nope. That would defeat the purpose of remoting your component.

Actually my "Applicatio n Proxy" needed the dll to be on the client before it
could be installed. I had to load them in the GAC.

Thanks

Hi, I've tried everything I can think of. Using the script below, I thought on submit my ConfirmSave function would run, then if true returned, would run my form action. At this point it appears to be skipping the function altogether. I'm also unable to get the textbox.value since I need to use variable for the form name and input element name. I'm fairly new to this...please tell me where I am going astray...Thanks. HTML element:

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
