http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=32133 See last post by ozovadia at hotmail dot com Comes first on Google, if you remove hmailserver specifics from error message. Error message says that PHP COM extention failed to launch application, because access was denied. This restriction should be set by your webserver or OS. Google is one of the best places to search for solution, if you have error message. I suspect that plugins will need more fixes, because they are coded for Apache and not for IIS. $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] is not available in IIS and plugin uses it without checking. Please remove 'include_once(SM_PATH . 'plugins/compatibility/functions.php');' from strings.php. I think I have said that script modifications are needed only if you use compatibility 2.0.x. You use compatibility 1.3 and not 2.0.4. > Tomas, > > Thank you for the info. I download the 1.3 Compatibility plugin and now > I can open up the change password screen.
