Error Message: System.InvalidCastException: Unable to cast COM object of type 'ESRI.ArcGIS.esriSystem.AoInitializeClass'

Hello everyone,

I upgraded my local ArcGIS Server from version 10.2.2 to version ArcGIS Server 10.3 and after rebuilding a VS 2012 VB.Net web service, it shows the following error message. Then I uninstalled ArcGIS Server 10.3 and installed ArcGIS Server 10.2.2 and I got again the same error message.

Please help!!!

System.InvalidCastException: Unable to cast COM object of type 'ESRI.ArcGIS.esriSystem.AoInitializeClass' to interface type 'ESRI.ArcGIS.esriSystem.IAoInitialize'. This operation failed because the QueryInterface call on the COM component for the interface with IID '{9AB6A638-ACA8-4820-830C-463EA11C8722}' failed due to the following error: Library not registered.
