Re: WinampCOM problem

What user is your Server running as? For me, when i setup apache on my Win2k machine, i had to "RunAs" my personal "scott" account, rather than the system account, or else apache wouldn't be able to read certain "scott-only" files.... perhaps the user that apache is running as doesn't have permission to do COM stuff.... but i really don't know for sure. -- Scott Hurring Systems Programmer EAC Corporation scott (*) eac.com -- "Olivier Hubert" <raggart@colvir.net> wrote in message news:5.1.0.14.0.20020705204726.00aba9d0@colvir.net... > Hiya, > > Just wondering if anyone else is having this problem.
