Topic: msxml3.dll error '800c0008' Posted: 24 September 2017 at 9:35am |
When viewing a member profile with an Author ID of more than 31987, this error occurs. What is the problem?
msxml3.dll error '800c0008' System error: -2146697208. /forum/functions/functions_common.asp, line 3104

This is not related to the author ID number but an issue looking up the location of the IP address.
The part that has the error gets the location country or the last IP address the member was using when they visited the forum.
This uses Microsoft.XMLHTTP to connect to servers on our network here in the background to do the IP location lookup using the following on line 3098 of functions/functions_common.asp
Set objXMLHTTP = Server.CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP")
It looks like your server is not correctly creating this object on your server, try changing the line to that below;
Set objXMLHTTP = Server.CreateObject("MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP")
If that does not fix the error, could you tell me what server OS you are using?

The OS is the issue as Windows Server 2003 is not supported in Web Wiz Forums version 10+.
Microsoft stopped supporting Windows Server 2003 and the R2 version back in 2010 and as they no longer provide security patches for this OS support for Windows Server 2003 was dropped in Web Wiz Forums allowing us to add new features that used Regular Expressions and to get external content feed Microsoft.XMLHTTP.
The system requirements for Web Wiz Forums can be found on the page below;
I have looked up this error online and it seems that Microsoft.XMLHTTP can not be used in Windows Server 2003 as the server may not have access to Internet Explorer on the server if it has been locked down. You could try using the server version of Microsoft.XMLHTTP which is below;
Set objXMLHTTP = Server.CreateObject("MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP.6.0")

This does not work Set objXMLHTTP = Server.CreateObject("MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP.6.0")

Make sure that the latest supported version of IE is installed on the server.
If that does not work you may need to use a server running Windows Server 2008 or above.

As Microsoft stopped supporting Windows Server 2003 R2 back in 2010 having an unpatched server like this connected to the Internet it is likely to be infected with all sorts of nasties and being used as part of a botnet attacking other computers, upgrading to a supported version of Windows would be no bad thing.
If you are upgrading I would upgrade to Windows Server 2016 as Windows Server 2008 R2 ended mainstream support from Microsoft back in 2015.
