Comment(by trevorwekel):

 After some debugging, it was determined that IIS was not picking up the
 MENTOR_DICTIONARY_PATH environment variable without reboot.  Since the
 coordinate system library was not initialized, the call to !MgMap.Create
 would fail.

 One fix is to restart IIS after the installation.  Jackie also found some
 information on IIS environment variable overrides which may be applicable.
