Microsoft.office.interop word and The RPC server is unavailable. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x800706BA) Visual Basic Interop and Upgrade. May 07, 2012 Run-time error; RPC server is unavailable. Microsoft Word 1. BillDL (2 comments) LVL 39. Windows XP 15. Microsoft Word 8. Air Reserve Technician Program. Microsoft Office 7. I have a Windows XP Home SP3 PC which since yesterday has been reporting 'The RPC Server is unavailable' errors when attempting to do specific tasks such as remove.
I've searched and searched and search, only got until sept to virtualize this server and migrate it to SBS 2008. Lucky me considering i just graduated from college. Anyway here are the details.
Small Business Server 2003 with SP2 Using SCVMM 2008 R2 on Windows Server 2008 box with Hyper-V I am using the convert physical computer section I fill out the IP, domain admin account and password (I want to try a local admin account but for some reason I cannot find the local admin username or password anywhere) I have successfully converted a Server2003 box as a test before doing the SBS. When I goto 'Scan System' i get this error and cannot find anything on google or technet that helps me. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ VMM is unable to complete the request. The connection to the agent was lost. Ensure that the computer exists on the network, WMI service and the agent are installed and running and that a firewall is not blocking HTTP and WMI traffic. ID: 3157 Details: The RPC server is unavailable (0x800706BA) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I can ping from both machines successfully This is our only DC on the network which also does our exchange.
Anyone got anything I can try out?
I'm trying to print a document from Microsoft Word 2003 to a network printer. When I select print I get an error message with the following text.
A microsoft word error 7, 'The RPC server is unavailable' has occurred. When I close the error box I get another error that immediately follows. A microsoft word error 10, 'There is a printer error' has occurred. Have tried to troubleshoot the problem by re-installing the printer and this does not help. Have even re-installed Microsoft Office 2003 and this has not stopped the problem either. I have 12 workstations on a Windows 2003 server and only 3 of my workstations are having this problem.
All workstations are running Windows XP professional sp2 and print just fine from all of my other server applications. I have scanned all systems for malware and they are all clean. I don't know what else to try and hope someone has seen this problem and may have solution.
