Classic ASP with Server.CreateObject on Azure Web apps

1

I have a classic ASP application that uses a custom written VB6 COM object (.dll) through Server.CreateObject.

I can deploy and run classic ASP (.asp) in an Azure web app, but I'm not sure how to get to the point where I can use my VB6 COM object.

Uploading the .dll to the web folder and using Server.CreateObject just results in the expected:

 An error occurred on the server when processing the URL. Please contact the system administrator.
If you are the system administrator please click here to find out more about this error.

Is it possible to use your own custom .dlls?

That's not possible using Web Apps. Using Virtual Machines, you have more control and you'll be able to register your COM DLL.
