Hello,
I went through the same problems but got some help from a coworker. Oliver
was right about the user ID. what you can do is change the .exe to an ActiveX.dll COM
object. Then add it to
a MTS package component. MTS can be installed off the NT4 Option Pack (downloadable
from MS).
then just expand the computers folder, expand computer icon, right click and add a
package, set the package to run under a given UserID. then expand the package icon,
expand components folder, and drag and drop (copy and paste does not work) the .dll to
the component folder. MTS will then register the .dll on the server. then
createobject the desired Class using php and you're on your way. MTS will run the
object under your specified UserID.
When building the .dll, make sure you set the MTSTransaction property to NEW
TRANSACTION and
set the .dll property in MTS to NEW TRANSACTION. This creates a new process for the
COM object
on the server using your specified UserID.
I am using NT4.0 and IIS and VB6.0. I'm pretty sure MTS can run on its own and does
not require IIS.
Why did I do this? I am pulling appointments out of Outlook calendars which requires
vb or c++
to access Outlook.
Hope this helps.
