Help with DCOM error

[Diopter]

Hi all, I recently encounter a critical error on my server. The DCOM / Network Service seems to failed every single day and this causes some of the application running on the server failed to connect to mysql..

Below is sample of the DCOM error log..

=====================================================================

Event Type: Error

Event Source: DCOM

Event Category: None

Event ID: 10016

Date: 1/3/2006

Time: 1:04:48 PM

User: NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE

Description:

The application-specific permission settings do not grant Local Activation

permission for the COM Server application with CLSID

{BA126AD1-2166-11D1-B1D0-00805FC1270E}

to the user NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE SID (S-1-5-20). This security

permission can be modified using the Component Services administrative tool.

For more information, see Help and Support Center at

=====================================================================

I followed the help & support article to setup, but still failed..

What other solution do I have?

Thank in advance..

Hi Diopter

Like it is writen in the description, you have to give some permissions to the mentioned application.

1. go to "run" in the start box and run "dcomcnfg"

2. go to Console Root --> Computers --> My Computer --> DCOM Config. There you can set the permissions to a specific application.

3. Look for the application you using when the error occurs. If there is no clear text name, look for a entry with the clsid {BA126AD1-2166-11D1-B1D0-00805FC1270E}. The last entries (those ones without a clear text name) are labeled by their clsid.

4. Open the properties of the concering application and go to the tab called security

5. Ok, now chose "Customize" in the "Launch and Activation Permissions" part. And go to Edit

6. Now, is there already a user called "NETWORK SERVICE"?

If yes, give that application the "local launch" and the "local activation" permission.

I hope this helps. If not, just ask me again

good luck

thanks alot for the quick reply redsnowrider.. will try that now..

[RedSnowRider]

you're welcome.

but i didn't finish point 6.

6. Now, is there already a user called "NETWORK SERVICE"?

If yes, give that application the "local launch" and the "local activation" permission.

If no, add the user "NETWORK SERVICE" and give him the permissions mentioned above.

so, I hope that will work

Hi, this is my actual account, i used my friend acc (diopter) to post last night..

I tried the steps given, but was not able to find the clsid on dcomcnfg..

What can I do next?

[cluberti]

That's a common CLSID - it's listed as "netman" in DCOM Config. That's where the error lies.

I'm sorry for not updating.. my clsid is not

{BA126AD1-2166-11D1-B1D0-00805FC1270E}

but it was

{0C0A3666-30C9-11D0-8F20-00805F2CD064}

instead... I couldn't seems to find this clsid..

Apart from clsid all the error msg are the same posted in the first post
