Error: "Server.CreateObject Failed" While Browsing Store

 Last reviewed: July 16, 1997
Article ID: Q164929
The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Commerce Server, version 2.0

SYMPTOMS

You may receive the following error while browsing the store if the Application objects in Global.asa are not created. 

   Server.CreateObject Failed

WORKAROUND

To avoid this error, perform the following steps:

  1. Comment out the line that is failing and see if the error propagates to the next Server.CreateObject() call.

  2. Make sure the object in question has permissions to be created (for example, a file object with read/write access).

  3. Try creating these objects in a VBScript outside Commerce Server and see if that works. If the same problem exists, try removing and reinstalling Active Server Pages.
