I took a look at some OLD code that I used to access outlook/exchange.. It looks like I never actually uses Outlook.Application. Instead I used cdo and used makepy.py to generate a cdo.py file. From there I followed the Microsoft documentation at msdn IIRC. On Thu, 2003-06-26 at 03:29, Deniz, Metin wrote:
Hi everybody,
I have a problem with instantiating the Outlook application. Following is the listing of the external method I am using: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------ import win32com.client import pythoncom
def sendEmail(): loadcomclient = 'false' loadpycom = 'false'
if win32com.client: loadcomclient = 'true' if pythoncom: loadpycom = 'true'
if((loadcomclient == 'false') or (loadpycom == 'false')): return 'Loaded win32com.client: ' + loadcomclient + '\r\n Loaded pythoncom: ' + loadpycom #try: pythoncom.CoInitialize()
oOutlookApp = win32com.client.gencache.EnsureDispatch("Outlook.Application")
#oWordApp = win32com.client.gencache.EnsureDispatch("Word.Application")
return "Successfully loaded Outlook! \r\n"
#except: #return "MSOutlook: unable to load Outlook" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------ This is the error message I receive:
Error Type: com_error Error Value: (-2146959355, 'Server execution failed', None, None)
If try to connect to "Word.Application" everything works fine.
If I execute this script outside of ZOPE then I get a connection to Outlook.
Can anybody please tell me what I am missing?
Thanks in advance.
