Description

We have a classic ASP application running on IIS 7.5 on Windows Server 2008 R2

There is a DLL build in the code to use Log4NET logging with an ASP application.

So, In order for log4net to work on traditional ASP a DCOM object is used, which is "SuperMam.Logs2ASP.DLL"

The following is done for the registration:

1. REGASM with the following command:
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\regasm "SuperMam.Logs2ASP.dll" /tlb /codebase

2. Within Component Services, A new COM+ Application is created for Logs2ASP (running under user NETWORK_SERVICE) and inside this application create the component SuperMam.Logs2ASP by choosing it from the registered components.

3. Now that the COM+ Application is configurable, The settings are changed by un-checking the check box for “enforce access checks for this application”

4. Then DCOMCNFG is opened on 32 bit by using mmc -32 and adding the Component Services add-in, to make sure it recognizes the new application.

But the problem we are facing is that Log4NET is never registered properly and due to which the application returns a HTTP 500

Please help in solving the situation or suggesting the error

Thanks
