an attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format

[Guest]

Hi,

I have created a com+ component using vb dot net running on win 2k.
This works fine on our test server.
Recently we bought a new server with win2k on it and installed the
application on it
Now when trying to access the component we get
"an attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format"
Any ideas

Hi,

Do you have .NET Framework installed on the new machine?
I also remember COM+ components created in vb.net require special
registration, check out MSDN docs on installutil.exe and COM+ deployment
(for example the "Understanding Enterprise Services (COM+) in .NET"
technical article).

Hi,

Yes we do have the dot net framework installed
With the com+ we call regsvcs to register it
