When I run the COM+ register function I get the error:  
failed to install:  
Exception number -2146365811  
  
Just wondering the proper steps to install and register a COM+ component.  
  
Thanks,  
  
Tony

Hi Tony,  
  
Can you provide us with any more information, such as context for the error? If you look in the Event Logs on the COM+ server, does it register any errors? Are you able to register any other components?  
  
Regards,  
  
Angus

I have an Application created with 10 components in that application. We frequently update these components. The process we follow is:  
-Shutdown COM+ Application  
-Disable COM+ Application  
-Delete all COM+ components in the application  
-Unregister COM+ components  
-register components  
-install 5 dll’s that make up the 10 components  
-Enable COM+ Applicationi  
-Start COM Application.  
  
during the Register COM+ components step it starts to register and then produces the followig error:  
Connecting to server localhost…  
Retrieving applications collection…  
Finding application IVR…  
Application IVR found with ID {6249C40E-BD6F-4B98-92AA-53060CE3125E}

Another point I need to add is that I am trying to register these COM+ components on a remote machine using a mapped drive.

Thanks,

Tony

Hi Tony,  
  
Sorry it’s taken us so long to get back to you. If you look at the latest official build (130), we improved the error logging for the COM+ actions so hopefully it can give a more verbose error message.
