Hi all
My mta, Mailtraq http://www.mailtraq.com/,
contains a custom
active-x control which can be accessed only when it
is running as
an application, not as a service. If Mailtraq is
started as a
service, its normal mode, the active-x control can't
be instanced
in perl or javascript ...
| test.js
| var mailtraq = new
ActiveXObject(Mailtraq.Control);
| WScript.Echo(mailtraq.Config.UserCount);

error: Automation server can't create object
We, the Mailtraq developer and I, are assuming that
this is a
permissions problems but we can't get to the bottom
of it. If
anyone has encountered similar problems, we'd
appreciate some
pointers in the right direction.
Jim,
You can use the WinXP schtasks utility to run a script
in the SYSTEM account.
run NewJob.pl as administrator and it will create a
scheduled task that runs under the System account,
then it will run the task and show you some ENV vars
that will prove to you that it works as expected.
regards,
