Event ID 10016


For Event ID 10016 I found this solution located at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/899965 If you wish to see more detailed information how this was resolved.


Description

The application-specific permission settings do not grant Local Activation permission for the COM Server application with CLSID {61738644-F196-11D0-9953-00C04FD919C1} to the user NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE SID (S-1-5-20) from address LocalHost (Using LRPC). This security permission can be modified using the Component Services administrative tool.


Cause

This problem may occur if either of the following conditions is true:

  • A program with the class ID (CLSID) that appears in the message tries to start the COM component by using the DCOM infrastructure. However, the user does not have the required permissions to start the COM component.
  • The Network Service account does not have the correct permissions.

Solution Used

To grant the correct permissions to the Network Service account, follow these steps:

  1. Click Start, click Run, type dcomcnfg in the Open box, and then click OK.
  2. In Component Services, double-click Component Services, and then double-click Computers.
  3. Right-click My Computer, and then click Properties.
  4. Click the COM Security tab.
  5. In the Launch and Activation Permissions area, click Edit Default.
  6. Click Add, type Network Service, and then click OK.
  7. While Network Service is selected, click to select the Allow check boxes for the following items:
  • Local Launch
  • Remote Launch
  • Local Activation
  • Remote Activation
  • Click OK two times.
