I have an ASP script on a site. I tested it at work. It worked fine. (It's for a newsletter.)

I came home and tried to subscribe to the newsletter from here, and I got the following error message:

Server object error 'ASP 0177 : 80070008'

Server.CreateObject Failed

Why would it work on my machine at work but not at home? Any ideas?

I would have thought that if there were problems with the script, I would have gotten the above error message there too. =/

TIA!

It has nothing to do which which computer you are on. ASP runs server side so the browser never sees the code. Why don't you post some source code so that we can try to figure out what is actually going wrong. A link would be nice too.

This error means you are trying to create an instance of an object which doesnt exist on your server.

ASP has a bunch of third party components which are sometimes free but mostly you will find that they are quite commercialised.

The reason it works at your place of employment is because the server there has the component in question installed.
