DCOM Error in Event-Log

Post by Matth »

Hi

I've downloaded your software and try to test it to monitor my server. The software runs as a service on the server and performs an http-test every five minutes to query a web-page. If the test fails it should send an email and restart the service.

The problem is that when the service runs (status started) I get every 3 to 4 minutes an system event-log error. It says:

Access denied attempting to launch a DCOM Server using DefaultLaunchPermission. The server is {long number} The user is Unavailable/Unavailable, SID=Unavailable

What could that be?

Are you sure this messages relates to HostMonitor?
HTTP test doesn't use COM/DCOM technology, "Send e-mail" and "Restart service" actions don't use COM either. The only test method that uses COM (ActiveX) is Active Script test method.
Also you said HTTP test is performed every 5 min, but message appears every 3-4 min.
So, probably this message does not relate to HostMonitor at all?
The server is {long number}
Long number must be GUID. Using this number you can check what DCOM server generates error.
