Re: Re: SlimP3 - XPL = Homeseer 2

Maybe the user running the xplhal service (localsystem ?) doesn't have the
permission to launch the dcom server "HomeSeer.Application" ?
Goto "Start/Run...", type "dcomcnfg". In the management
console, navigate to
My Computer/DCOM Config. Locate the HomeSeer Class. Check the properties,
especially under Security the Launch and Access Permissions. If these are
set to Use Default, then click look at the properties of My Computer in the
treeview of the management console (i.e. not the My Computer on the
desktop).
But first examine the eventlog. If it is related to what I describe here
you should find entries there.
Hth,
Tom
