Can't get UniObjects COM Object to load with PHP in Windows 2008 R2

Question

I am trying to use COM function in PHP but I am not sure what am I doing wrong. This is my first line in PHP script

$UOSession = new COM("UniObjects.Unioiafctrl") or die("Cant instantiate UO");

I did use regsvr32 to register uniobjects.dll and it was successful, but problem is that if I have any code before this line it executes, any code after this line doesn't work and I don't even get any message was dll successfully instantiated or no. I would assume that if its not instantiated I would get message "Cant instantiate UO" but I don't get any message. That would meant that it was successful, but code stops right there... Does anybody knows what am I doing wrong?

Windows Server 2008 R2 x64, IIS7, PHP 5.3

Zuboje,

Figured out the issue, with the help of International Spectrum Editor Nathan Rector. Download 32bit version of PHP and use it. You probably have a 64bit version of PHP and it wont be able to read your 32bit COM Object. I was able to install a 32bit version of WAMP and it resolved my issue.
