With PerlEx 3.0 on IIS 5.1 on XP Professional, I've seen the system refuse to
execute working scripts, and instead drop me an error and a warning in the
Windows event log. The error is DCOM 10004, and it always followed by a warning
W3SVC 36. I think the warnung is just a corrollary and wouldn't be there if the
error weren't.
The first time this occurred was after a Windows system update with a pending
injunction to reboot. Predictably, the reboot fixed the problem.
The second time this occurred was after the computer spending the weekend in
sleep mode. (But it does that every night.) I tried three things:
(1) stop and restart the website: doesn't help;
(2) stop and restart the service: doesn't help either;
(3) call iisreset: this works.
Obviously, having to call iisreset is not a solution. I'd like to understand
this problem, and then solve it. Googling for DCOM 10004 and Perlex didn't turn
up anything. Googling for DCOM 10004 and IIS yields more hits.
The precise error message (in German) I'm seeing is:
Bei DCOM ist der Fehler "Anmeldung fehlgeschlagen: Dem Benutzer wurde der
angeforderte Anmeldetyp auf diesem Computer nicht erteilt. " aufgetreten.
.\IWAM_HRSWKS016 konnte nicht angemeldet werden, um den folgenden Server zu
starten:
{3D14228D-FBE1-11D0-995D-00C04FD919C1}
Which translates to some kind of logon failure: "unable to logon
.\IWAM_<machine name> in order to run the server: {ID}".
There is a description of the scenario here:

Mention is made of a script called synciwam.vbs, but that seems to be another
workaround. Why do things get out of sync?
There's an answer that sounds helpful on that page:
For whatever reason it appears that the password
stored in the SAM, and the password IIS has for the
IWAM account are getting "out of sync" every day.
Instead of delving into a world of things I'm not yet familiar with (like
secpol.msc), I'm asking the list for experience and advice regarding this issue.
