how to register com components inside docker as regsvr32 command executes successfully but the com components are not getting registered?

We have deployed our .net application along with some COM components in docker but when we are trying to register COM dlls using regsvr32 the command gets executed without any error. But when we search for the CLS ID in the registry it is not available. But we are still getting Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {XXXX} failed.

Its a 32 bit component. And 32bit is enabled in docker environment as well. We have tried with elevated access as well but no luck

Is it possible to register COM components in docker?

Solution

  • After copying a dll named msvbvm60.dll into System folder inside container, dll registrations started working.
