Registration error. Help! [:(!]
25 June 2001, 19:35


Hi;

I am having problems when people are trying to register in my forum. After clicking on submit when registering, I get the following ASP error:

Server object error 'ASP 0177 : 800401f3'

Server.CreateObject Failed

?

Invalid class string

I'm not sure why I am getting this error. Any help would be greatly appreciated. The wierd thing is that if I refresh the page, it will recognize the newly registered user!
Thanks;
John

It means that the email component you selected in your Email Configuratons is not installed on your server. To check which email component you have installed, go here http://forum.snitz.com/archive/default.asp?catid=11&cattitle=Forum+Setup+Tools and download the "Check Email Components" tool. Extract it to your forum folder and run it from your browser. It will tell you which components you have installed.

I wanted to add some additional info, just in case it helps when replying to my problem:

- my strDBType=access
- my strConnString = "DSN=forum_db"

I registered a system DSN, instead of using the other string that was there before.

Ah, thank you. Do you know per chance where I can get either ASP Mail or SMTP, so I can install it under my IIS?
Thanks;

You can get ASP Mail here:
http://www.serverobjects.com/products.htm#aspmail

But that isn't free. You can get a free email component called JMail from here:
http://www.dimac.net

When you ran the Check Email Components script, did it say that none of the components where installed on your server?
