SQL Distributed Transaction fired by a COM+ not working

If you have some COM+ object that connects to SQL Server and opens a transaction, sometimes it stops working at all, you may be facing a COM+ Corrupted Database, to “repair” this database you must follow the following steps:

 

1. Find the file %WinDir%\System32\Clbcatq.dll and rename it to ~Clbcatq.dll
2. Reboot the computer in Recovery Mode.
3. Open the Registry and delete the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\COM3.
4. Find in the %WinDir% directory and look for a subdirectory named Registration. Delete Registration folder.
5. Reboot the machine normally.
6. Open Control Panel | Add/Remove Programs | Add/Remove Windows Components.
7. Click Next to reinstall COM+.
8. Now your transactions should work
