Hi,
We have to migrate W2K3 64-bit from W2K and it seems SQL Server 2000 (32-bit) XML services is not working on 64-bit OS.
The url is something like that:
http://64bitserverIIS/APPL/TEMPLATE/userList.xml

The error message is herebelow in IE:
%1 is not a valid Win32 application.

I could not find the reason. Nobody says anything. I don't know what I should check exactly.

We setup W2K3 on another machine as 32-bit. SQL Server 2000 XML services is working. I checked following dlls related to XML services and they are same in both servers:

sqlxmlx.dll
sqlisapi.dll
sqloledb.dll
w3isapi.dll

Does anybody give me a clue to find a solution?

Best regards,

Elif

Did you ever find a solution to this problem? I have the same issue and can't find it mentioned anywhere else.

I run XML services on another W2K server's 32 bit IIS. But I found two solutions. The links related to second solution is herebelow:
(But I did not try!)
