SYMPTOMS
When you try to create an instance of a Microsoft .NET serviced component that is deployed in the COM+ environment, you may receive the following error message:
This error message is returned by the activation request.
CAUSE
When you try to create an instance of a new serviced component, an old instance of the serviced component is destroyed. COM+ is supposed to clean up all the other resources that are associated with the old serviced component. However, sometimes this destruction may not be successful, or COM+ may not clean up the associated resources. Therefore, COM+ does not create the instance of the serviced component, and you may receive the error message that is mentioned in the "Symptoms" section.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for the Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1. The following file is available for download from the Microsoft Download Center:
The Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 Service Pack 1
