Check to see if your COM is currently processing in the task manager. If it is, kill it. Is the COM registered on both the CF server and the remote server? Also make sure that coldfusion has priveleges to run the COM (using dcomcnfg).

It worked fine on CFMX.. This used to work: <cfobject action="CREATE" server="X.X.X.X" context="REMOTE" type="COM" class="{A8230C34-0DA1-11D5-B4B9-00902757EE1B}" name="pPlan"> Now I get this error: An exception occurred when instantiating a Com object. The cause of this exception was that: java.lang.NullPointerException. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Get the mailserver that powers this list at http://www.coolfusion.com Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
