Hello all,
I've been working with Python for a good deal of time now, and within the last 2
months, got into the COM end of it's seemingly endless capabilities using the
PythonWin extensions, specifically the
ActivePython package version 202. I have written a utility to interact with Excel for
various different purposes, and this utility needs to be automated, run on a regular
basis. We use the Seagate Info
scheduler for this purpose, and it runs as a service.
Now, the problem:
When Seagate Info spawns the utility, it tries to dispatch the COM client, as it would
normally, however it ends up with an error to the effect of "Access Is Denied"
immediately after the dispatch
command. This only happens on NT4, and I am using Seagate Info v7. There are two
ways I can solve this as a temporary fix, but neither is acceptible for the long run.
Configuring Info to run as an application, as opposed to a service, provides a
successful response, the utility runs without fail. Also, setting up Info as a
service, and the utilty on Windows 2000 Server,
there is no problem... So the problem lies somewhere in the combination of spawning
the Python utility from a service, and Windows NT 4.
Any assistance that you can provide would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thank You!
