C# - Accessing Office Word Object Model Through Asp.net Results In "failed Due To The Following Error: 80070005 Access Is Denied."
Aug 13, 2010
I have developed a website that allows users to upload office documents then uses the office object model to convert the document to an HTML file that it then displays in an iFrame. I have, of course, included references to Office.interop.word, and the site works fine on my development machine. When I uploaded it to my production server the site functions fine until I try to upload a document. I initially got a similar error that said "COM object not registered". I realized that Word wasn't installed on my production server. So I installed word and now when the server tries to access the word object model I receive the following error:
Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {000209FF-0000-0000-C000-000000000046} failed due to the following error: 80070005 Access is denied. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED))
I searched the registry for the corresponding CLSID and found a corresponding folder. I added full control to the IUSR_ account and due to the persistence of the error I eventually added full control to "everyone" and ensured these permissions inherited down to the rest of the folder. I then added full control to IUSR_ and again eventually added full control to "everyone" to my microsoft office folder.
I don't know what other permissions to grant and where in order to make this "Access is denied" error go away. I must be granting them in the wrong place, because as far as I know I can't be any more permissive than "Everyone" "Full Control".
I have a treeview with folders that works fine on win xp. When i try access MyMusic and MyPictures folders in MyDocuments in win 7, i get error "access is denied". I try this on three different computers with Win7.

I created a typed dataset a day or so ago, then I added a whole bunch of tableadapter/tables with some relationships etc... suddenly out of nowhere it decides my dataset "is not defined". everywhere in my code where i use this dataset now has an error. I tried not to pull out my hair and do a Clean then Rebuild solution... out of nowhere it just refuses to generate code. Object reference not set to an instance of an Object. It would be nice if it was my object so i could find it but it's not.
Curiously I also lost the little database icon on the dataset in the solution explorer.I can still open it in the designer and preview my queries etc... it just wont make the code. it's driving me insane. anyone got a solution?
I have been trying to use vb2008 to automatically update CustomDocumentProperties fields that I have set up within a pro-forma document. I can load the Word application and word document without problems.I want to update the CustomDocumentProperties fields with data read from a dB. To do this I am assuming that I need to iterate through the CustomDocumentProperties fields within the word document and when one is "found" that matches the data I wish to merge then assign the dB value to the field.The problem is that I am getting an exception error when I try to reference the document customdocumentproperties
"Error : Unable to cast the COM object of type 'System._ComObject' to interface type 'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.CustomProperties'. ...... "
my code looks like;
Dim WordApp As Word._Application Dim odoc As Word._Document Dim BContinue As Boolean = True
I've got a problem whereby I get Permission Denied while accessing a database via OleDB. I know how to unlock this but i'm not permitted to do so. I was wondering if ODBC would work? I'm not sure on the settings around this on my the PC where I'm going to use this application but wonder if this has less security around it. your thoughts until I can test this next week. Or is there another way you may know that I can use a database. (access)
I created a report using report document object model in visual studio 2008 with vb.net. But I found one error. When the user clicks export button in client side, the following error will show. But the first time is OK before the user clicks export button.
Logon failed. Details: ADO Error Code: 0x Source: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server Description: Login failed for user 'zanhtet'. SQL State: 42000 Native Error:
This is calling report code.

Basically in visual basic 6 I could access word tables in existing templates with the code owordactivedoc.tables(1).select() where owordactivedoc refers to the active word document and tables(1) refers to the first table in the template.Trying the same code in VB 2003 just leads to errors. Secondly how do I access bookmarks or alternatively word variables.Furthermore how do one deploy web.services. For example the current program I am building is for another computer. Simply copying the web service to Inetpubwwwroot dont work because it is not picked up by the Internet Information Services program. I have to create the web service in vb2003 on the other computer change msconfig manually. Copy and paste the existing service vb file in the created folder replacing the empty vb file.
I am using the office interop to open word documents and saving as html to do parsing work.After a few executions I notice that in the task manager under processes there are still instances of WINWORD.EXE running. I have used the following to close the object but it is still there:
In all the years that I've been coding I have never come accross this issue or error. For the past 3 months I have been working on two separate apps. Initialy I started out with Win Vista and things were going great except for how slow my comp was running. So I reinstalled the Vista OS. Everything was going great until Mar 7th when this error just started occuring within my code.
"Access to the registry key 'HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareTornadoAppsSwift BudgetUser' is denied"
TornadoApps/Swift Budget are strings created upon App install or first run of App in VB 2008.The User value along with 9 other values were all working fine prior to Mar 7th.Now this line along with many others like it with defferent strings and values were working just fine till this week. So i figured that I'd just upgrade to Win7 hoping that would fix it. IT didn't. So I reformatted and installed fresh Win7 and still have the error. So I have figured out that it isn't my OS. Cuase it was working in Vista then just quit working.

I am new to this forum. I have win 7 OS. I have VB5 installed and runs no problems. I just installed Visual Studio 2010 Express for VB2010 use. Installation OK no problems.

I have an app that uses Microsoft.Speech to recognize speech in a WAV file. It works perfectly when run locally as a console app but barfs when executed by IIS.Assuming I have the following installed on WinServer 2008 with .NET 3.5+:
Microsoft Speech Platform - Software Development Kit (SDK) (Version 10.1) Microsoft Speech Platform - Server Runtime Languages (Version 10.1) Microsoft Speech Platform - Software Development Kit (SDK) (Version 10.1)
Is it even possible to use Microsoft.Speech over IIS7? What am I missing here? I've tried re-coding it as an ASP.NET web service but that doesn't work either.
UPDATE: Here's the error message + stack trace:
System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access is denied.

I've tried various methods to search for files, but each time I encounter a "acces denied" error, which stops the search.Is there a way to scan for files, and skip the files it doesn't have access to, or force access to it?I want to gather all exe's on a specific drive. This works, when there are no restricted files/paths
Quote: Dim searchResults As String() = Directory.GetFiles(cboDrives.Text, "*.exe", SearchOption.AllDirectories)
I'm trying to generate Office 2010 files (xlsx) in a vb.net project (Visual Studio 2010 fw 4.0).On my developing PC it works. Once on the server it generates an error:Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {00024500-0000-0000-C000-000000000046} failed due to the following error: 80070005 Access is denied. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED)).On the server I tried with dcomcnfg and navigate to DCOM Config and locate Excel. To solve the problem I would have chosen Customize in the Security tab under Launch and Activation Permissions and add the account under which the site is running (our server task user) and assign Local Launch & Local Activation permissions.[code]

I am not an expert programmer and am just getting familiar with .NET office automation. I have two questions:
1. For me to create word documents from my code on a server, does word have to be installed on the server? My test server does not have word installed. Is there a way to have the code open word on the user's machine in this case?
2. I am trying out some code for creating word documents. It works fine on my machine. However, when I try to run it on server it gives me an error.. "Cannot create ActiveX component." Is this a permissions issue or related to the fact that the server does not have word installed?
I'm struggling to think of a reason why I should be getting an 'Access denied' error when trying to save an Excel document opened through a program written in VB 2010 Express. The program is essentially glorified Excel automation. It converts information from hundreds of Excel documents into a few small text files in order to improve operation speed. The software is designed for use by no more than a dozen or so people in the office who are all editing these Excel documents (through the software), and saving changes. They edit a given document by selecting it in a list in the main form, which then changes the document to writeable and opens it for them. A FileSystemWatcher detects changes in the folder containing the Excel documents so that the aforementioned text files can be updated when the user saves the Excel document.
I am currently using the below code to upload a file and display progress. It works fine except there are a few things I would like to do differently.
I am using the main FTP account for my website which has access to all of my files. I set up a different FTP login to use that only has access to a specific folder, but when I try to use it I get: Error 550 No such file or directory or access denied.
This FTP account allows access to: mywebsite.com/upload/users/ only If strFTPAddress = mywebsite.com/upload/users/ I get error 550, I've tried a few other things too and it's told me that it's an invalid URI
Basically what I want to know is if and how I might be able to connect using my second FTP account so that I only have access to the upload/users/ directory.
I cannot figure out how to get past this error. I have 1) Given the user "everyone" access to the entire directory that this dll is contained in 2) Deleted the dll and rebuilt the project 3) Deleted the Temporary ASP.NET files in the Windows Directory 4) Restarted IIS 5) Tried to change to a different user in IIS security including trying ASPNET. we are not using windows authentication. 6) Even copied that dll from other machines.
Here's the error. I have no clue at this point if it's code missing inside it or something else wrong with it or my setup. Other people on my team are using this dll ok. Could not load file or assembly 'Anthem' or one of its dependencies. Access is denied.
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.
