Hello all,

I'm moving my company's websites from a windows 2003x86 server to windows 2008x64 which is running IIS 7.5.

The problem that I've got is that all the DLL's which were running fine on the old server, now error out whenever they're called. All I get is a generic error like:

Server object error 'ASP 0177 : 800401f3'

Server.CreateObject Failed

/folder/scriptname.asp, line 24

800401f3

The line that errors is:

'23 lines of comments  
set A0SQL_DATA = server.createobject("olddllname.Data")  
'the rest of the script 

I already have that site running in an App Pool that is set to 32bit mode. But, I get the error anyway.

Has anyone experienced this? I'm frusterated because all the info I look up says that all I need to do is set the app pool to run in 32bit mode. I did that and It's still not working. What else could I check?
