I have a running instance of InDesign Server CS6 which I launched using the following command:
"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CS6 Server x64\InDesignServer.com" -port 12345
I tried running the following VBScript file to access this running instance:
Set myApp = WScript.GetObject("configuration_12345")
myApp.ConsoleOut("Foo")
Set myApp = Nothing
But I get this error (launched using 64-bit wscript.exe):
---------------------------
Windows Script Host
---------------------------
Line: 1
Char: 1
Error: File name or class name not found during Automation operation
Code: 800A01B0
Source: Microsoft VBScript runtime error
I also tried to access this instance using C++ COM:
int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{
HRESULT hr = ::CoInitializeEx(NULL, COINIT_MULTITHREADED);
if (FAILED(hr))
{
printf("COM init failed\n");
return 0;
}
IDispatch* pUnk = NULL;
hr = ::CoGetObject(L"configuration_12345", NULL, __uuidof(IDispatch), (void**)&pUnk);
if (SUCCEEDED(hr))
{
pUnk->Release();
pUnk = NULL;
}
::CoUninitialize();
return 0;
}
But, CoGetObject returns 0x800401e4 (MK_E_SYNTAX).
However, if I use the "helloworld-csharp-com" sample, using "configuration_12345" as the config, it works fine. Why is it not working with VBScript and C++?
I'm running Windows 8, 64-bit, IDS CS6 8.0
