Hello everyone,

I wrote a web service a few months ago, and it was working fine. Then I decided to upgrade my workstation to ArcGIS Server 10.3 and it stopped working. So I uninstalled AcGIS Server 10.3 and I installed back ArcGIS Server 10.2 and the web service still does not work.

I am using ArcGIS 10.2 client and server on my workstation. IIS .Net Framework 3.5 and ApplicationPool 2.0, VS 2010 or VS 2012. I also did tests with IIS .Net Framework 4.0 and Application Pool 4.0 and the error persists.

Please take a look to the zipped file attached to this post. It is a simplified version of the web service, it can be opened with VS 2010 or VS 2012. The line that has the problem is this one: "CType(Activator.CreateInstance(factoryType), ESRI.ArcGIS.Geodatabase.IWorkspaceFactory)", it fails with an error message "retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {D9B4FA40-D6D9-11D1-AA81-00C04FA33A15}failed due to the following error: 80040111."

Also I created a Console Application using the same code and it works fine.

HELP!!!!!

<WebMethod()> _

Public Function HelloWorld() As String

' For example, connectionFile = "C:\myData\Connection to Kona.sde".

'Public Function ArcSdeWorkspaceFromFile(ByVal connectionFile As String) As IWorkspace

Try

Dim connectionFile As String

Dim factoryType As Type = Type.GetTypeFromProgID("esriDataSourcesGDB.SdeWorkspaceFactory")

Dim workspaceFactory As ESRI.ArcGIS.Geodatabase.IWorkspaceFactory = Nothing

Dim wsFactory As ESRI.ArcGIS.Geodatabase.IWorkspaceFactory = Nothing

' This is where I get the error message:

Is your Enable 32-bit applications property in IIS app pool set to True by any chance?

Where do you set up this value in IIS?

Just checked, and the value is set to True.

Set it to false

Hi Spana,

I set it to False and the line where it was failing does not fail anymore.

Now I am getting an error message on the next line of the code: workspaceFactory.OpenFromFile(connectionFile, 0) with error message:

Error HRESULT E_FAIL has been returned from a call to a COM component.

connectionFile = "C:\SDEConn\SDEINSTANCE.sde"

Dim myIWorkspace As IWorkspace

myIWorkspace = workspaceFactory.OpenFromFile(connectionFile, 0) ********* ERROR MESSAGE

Found it!!! The IIS account IIS_IUSRS must be added to the folder where SDE Connection files are located in read only access. Otherwise the ASP.Net application can no read the folder.

sapnas — Fri, 23 Jun 2017 14:40:29 GMT

That is correct if the IIS authentication is Anonymous IIS_USRS should have access to that folder

Hello again,

the application was working fine last Friday but today I am getting the error message below in this line:

workspaceFactory = CType(Activator.CreateInstance(factoryType), ESRI.ArcGIS.Geodatabase.IWorkspaceFactory)

Error message:

Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {D9B4FA40-D6D9-11D1-AA81-00C04FA33A15} failed due to the following error: 80040154 Class not registered (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80040154 (REGDB_E_CLASSNOTREG)).

Any suggestions

Found it! I just removed and added two references: Esri.ArcGIs.Geodatabae and EsriArcGIS.Syste, and it works now.
