A year or ago I had written a site that used the Microsoft.Passport.RPS.dll to do a SSO Login to Live@EDU all done with "Microsoft Live@edu SSO 4.1". This week I started to port this to a .Net 4.0 Web Site using Forms Based Auth however any LiveRPS Class calls to Microsoft.Passport.RPS.dll version 5.5.4177.0 returns this error.
Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {01732742-D1A2-11D7-99EB-505054503030} failed due to the following error: 80040154 Class not registered (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80040154 (REGDB_E_CLASSNOTREG)).
Server was Windows Server 2008 R2 with rps64.msi and could run the SSOPortal that ships with "Microsoft Live@edu SSO 4.1" sucessfully.
Digging into this error message I didn't find much, forums with hints that it was having trouble calling the 64bit dll. After looking for a hour or so I deiced that i would just find an updated version and try that of the rps64.msi that I orginally installed. No luck there either. I found references to a version "6.0.5286.0" of Microsoft.Passport.RPS but had no luck in obtaining a copy of it.
I then looked for a newer version of the entire Windows LiveID SSO Kit but again had trouble finding a link to it. The solution was that I had to login to https://eduadmin.live.com/ Service portal as the specific admin account for that domain. Then and only then could I act like I was signing up for the SSO Tool Kit and download "Microsoft Live@edu SSO 4.3" . The new 4.3 version doesn't even use the Microsoft.Passport.RPS.dll and works perfectly from ASP.Net 4.0. The LiveRPS class is just a URL link in SSO 4.3.
All and all I have everything working but it really shouldn't of taken the two hours to find the download and solution from Microsoft.
