    - Feedback if using CVS with windows for asp files Hi, I need a code versioning system and was considering CVS. I would like some feedback if you are using CVS (wincvs or tortoise etc) and if you are satisfied with it. One thing i havent been able to find too much documentation on and is one of my major concerns is permissions. If i install cvs can i assign access to certain files in the project to certain windows users. For example if my web application has page1.asp page2.asp and page3.asp and i would like user newbie to only access and modify page1.asp? Thanks for ure time and comments :) Tag: IIS and VB.

    - File uploading mixed with form input I've been browsing around the web for an answer to this and I can't find a good answer to it.... here's the problem: I am using an ASP include file called "ClsUpload.asp" to upload a text file for processing. I also have a select drop down that i am submitting along with the file, in order to determine where in the database this info goes. My problem is that I can upload the file without any problems, but I can't get at the select field at all. I first tried using the normal "Request("Listid")" function, but that didn't work (At first I was using it after the file upload and it gave me an error message. Then I moved it to before the upload and it doesn't give me an error anymore, but also doesn't seem to see anything). Then I tried request.form("listid"), which some of the discussions on the web point to. The code still sees nothing at all being submitted. I tried it both before and after the file upload.... I don't see any info on doing something like this within the clsupload.asp file, so I'm thinking that the problem is stemming from my use of the enctype="multipart/form-data" tag. How can I do this? I suppose that if worst comes to worst, i can just break the form up accross two pages and use it like that, but that seems kind of ugly. Is there a simple way around this? Tag: IIS and VB.

    - HTTP headers ? How to pipe an ASP file through ? Hi Guys, I have a problem, and I would be grateful for any help. My WebApp has to do some database work in page1.ASP Because this may take a few second, before Page1 connects to the database, it doeas a "Response.Buffer=false", and pumps out a bit of javascript which displays a progress bar. SO far so good. When the database call is completed, I then write out a bit more javascript to stop the progress bar. Now, I have a binary fields retrieved from the database, which needs to be written like this : <% Response.ContentType = "application/pdf" [error] response.BinaryWrite (mydatabase field) %> Of course I am getting an error about HTTP headers having been written already. Can anyone suggest a way that I can display this PDF from Page1.asp ? At the moment, one I have done the database work (which populates the database) I have to transfer to PAGE2.ASP which then has to open the database, and retrieve the field again. The problem is that this process takes a few seconds too, which also requires the progressbar !!!!! What I would like to do, (if it's possible) is something like this : PAGE1.ASP <% ...[code to intialise progressbar]... ...[database call]... ...[clear progress bar]... ...[write db field as PDF]... %> thanks in advance Tag: IIS and VB.

    - killing winword.exe process - ASP and Office 2003 Howdy. I'm having difficulty getting winword.exe processes to die on our development server when using SET objWord = CreateObject("word.application") from an .ASP page. This problem exists on our development server only as we are still using Office 2000 components in production. No probs in production with the current code which has been in use for a couple of years now. I have to get these ASP pages working with word 2003 to avoid a rewrite of a few applications. I've tried using objWord.Quit and setting the object to "Nothing" but it has no effect on the running process on the server. Both development and prod servers are Win 2003 Server. Any and all ideas are appreciated. James. Tag: IIS and VB. NET ASP Problem Tag: 323760

    - Windows XP Server object, ASP 0178 (0x80070005) The call to Server.CreateObject failed while checking permissions. I found the best solution to this problem What you need to do is go to event viewer - System Log. Look at the error it will look something like that The machine-default permission settings do not grant Local Activation permission for the COM Server application with CLSID {671E00F1-44C3-401E-9E33-8E5E585F26BE} to the user WK01SF78\IUSR_XXXXXX SID (S-1-5-21-2939499473-2795378169-3261179525-1005). This security permission can be modified using the Component Services administrative tool. Open Component Services and Under DComConfig(Windows XP) find componnent {671E00F1-44C3-401E-9E33-8E5E585F26BE} and under Securities give "Everyone" full access (Under every tab) That solved my problem Tag: IIS and VB.

    - security issue on error page with ASP code I've inherrited an application that I have to both support and maintain here at work but it comes with one very big headache... The employees who use it are not allowed access to the server it's requried to sit on which means that my username and password have to be included in the logon.asp page which I HATE! So when this fails, it publishes my usernanme and password on the screen for the user to see...brilliant! Since nobody is willing to create a dummy account is there a way that I can keep that line of code from displaying if in error?

Somehow it switched back to the Main Identity (I didn't fiddle with it) and the other is password protected. Either I have forgotten that password or it isn't responding.

    - Am I likely to cause an error? Hi all, I have some code which compares values in a recordset to that in an array. If it finds a match it needs to remove the item from the array. My concern is that my method for removing the item from the array is by iterating through it, if it doesn't match then I place the value into a "temporary" array, after all comparisions are completed I then set the original array to equal the temporary array. Am I likely to generate an error if my internal looping of the same array changes the array size, whilst still iterating through it.. eg.. For x = 0 to .... if comparision is true then for y = 0 to .... if comparision is false then ' add value to temporary array here end if next array = temporary array end if Next My feeling is that this will go mammories up...

    - How do I find smart quotes? Hi all, I'm wondering if there is a way to find (to strip or process) smart quotes in text submitted via a form? These don't work: strOutput = Replace(strOutput, "â??", "â??") ' left smart quote char as replace value strOutput = Replace(strOutput, Chr(147), "â??") ' my best guess at where the left smart quote char is in the charset I guess the real question is if I submit the page as Unicode is there a way to process it as cp-1252? -- Sean. Tag: IIS and VB.

    - how asp handle primary key violation and re-try insert statement? The ASP application inserts transaction records in transaction table with the system time as the primary key. However, it is possible to have primary key violation because the records in transaction table come from different sources. The application can show error message and the user can file a transaction again manually, but I want the application can have multiple re-tries to perform insert statement until there is no primary key violation. Here's the code, but I get stuck what code should i put to re-try the insert statement, a for loop?and perhaps re-try 3 times before showing the primary key violation error message to the user? <% set conn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") conn.open "<connection string>" sql = "insert into p_tran values (convert(varchar, GETDATE(), 109), amount)" conn.execute(sql) if err.number <> 0 then Response.Write err.description end if conn.close set conn = nothing %> Errors ======== Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server error '80040e2f' Cannot insert duplicate key row Please advise. thanks!!

    - How to pass a string between ASP pages Hello All Could anyone give me some suggestions on passing a long string between ASP pages? I have three asp pages - h_email content.asp, h_process_email.asp and h_preview_email.asp In the h_email_content.asp, user can enter their To, CC, From, email content and other information. In this page, there are two buttons at the bottom- "preview email" and "send email". Inside the h_process_email.asp, there are some logics on controlling email content and sending conditions as well as saving data into database. I put a condition in h_process_email.asp for redirecting to h_preview_email.asp (response.redirect "h_preview_email.asp") if the user clicks the "email preview" button. If I want to transfer the email addresses and content from h_process_email.asp page to h_email_preview page, how can I do it? P.S I can't change the ASP structures i.e I have to keep them in three pages. Cheers Bon Tag: IIS and VB. NET ASP Problem Tag: 323697

    - Forcing a reload? Hi all, I've got a little shopping cart app which when you use all of the links on the pages, and buttons etc, things are good, the "shopping basket" on the left navigation updates and shows a sum of items and cost. However, if you arrive at the home page for example, proceed to the products page, add an item and then click "back", you get a cached page. I appreciate there are some lines of code I can use, both ASP and html to prevent the cachine, but what I dont want to incur instead is that error IE (and other browsers too I guess - how very Microsoft of me :o) ) - shows when the page has expired, I think that would probably be worse than the cart not showing any items (or not showing the update) until a link was pressed... Anyone got any ideas? Regards Rob Tag: IIS and VB. NET ASP Problem Tag: 323685

    - Mailing App Duplicate problem... Guys, I've written an email sending script to mass send to our database - some of our subscribers are subscribed to multiple list, and so when selecting the entire database, I want to ensure I don't have Duplicates. To avoid this, I am selecting the recordset of all users, ordering by Email address, sending the email, moving onto the next record and then starting a loop to keep looping until the email address is different, but it doesn't work... see example below... ----------------------------------- Do While NOT RS_RecipientsForCampaign.EOF SEND THE EMAIL HERE... RS_RecipientsForCampaign.MoveNext If NOT RS_RecipientsForCampaign.EOF Then ** Do While TheUsersEmailAddress = RS_RecipientsForCampaign("Email") AND NOT RS_RecipientsForCampaign.EOF RS_RecipientsForCampaign.MoveNext Loop End If Loop ----------------------------------- When running, the script works fine, BUT I get an Unspecified error (I HATE that message) at the end of the script, pointing me to the line number marked with ** above. How can I cure this? I've tried everything but need a solution to amend this section of code that works!! Cheers, Ash Tag: IIS and VB. NET ASP Problem Tag: 323661

    - AddHeader Content-Disposition Has no effect I have a IIS web site that works fine on one server but not another. I do not know if the problem is an IIS setting or something else so I will try to include as much detail as I have figured out so far. Several web pages allow the user to download PDF files to be viewed or saved locally on the user's machine, not in the browser. Those web pages all redirect to a single ASP page with QueryString parameters identifying the relative path to the desired file on a remote server. The redirect URL would be something like: download.asp?Src=Statements\2006\01\123456789 My download.asp code looks something like this: ================================================= Dim strSourceName Dim objDocServer ' Retrieve the path to the desired document strSourceName = Request.QueryString("Src") ' Call remote COM+ application and retrieve document as binary stream Set objDocServer = Server.CreateObject("DocumentServer.Application") Set objDocServer.Document = objDocServer.getDocument(strSourceName) With Response .Buffer = True .Clear .ContentType = "application/pdf" .AddHeader "content-disposition", "attachment; filename=test.pdf;" .BinaryWrite(objDocServer.Document) End With ================================================= When I try to download a file, the browser shows the File Download dialog asking me to Open or Save the file but it shows the File name as "123456789" rather than "test.pdf". It also shows a blank value for the File type. Whether I choose Open or Save the same error appears: Internet Explorer cannot download 123456789 from <server>. Internet Explorer was not able to open this site. The requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found. Please try again later. If I comment out the AddHeader line, the File type shows correctly as Adobe Acrobat Document. If I change the AddHeader to inline rather than attachment, I see the binary data in the browser. This exact code works fine on another server and I have no idea why it will not work on this new server. What I find interesting is that the download wants to name the file as 123456789 which comes from a part of a QueryString value and nowhere else. Could this have something to do with the "\" characters in the QueryString being confused as path delimiters by IIS/ASP? Any ideas or help are appreciated! Michael Tag: IIS and VB.

    - String Manipulation I have a text string which comes from a form containing the article text in a knowledgebase. Sometimes people enter http links in their text however when they show on the webpage they do not show as hyperlinks, because obviously they don't gave the link tags around them.

So what I'm really asking is, how can I convert this string: And to get to the blah blah site please go to http://blah-blah.com and you will find lots of blah blah there. Into this: And to get to the blah blah site please go to <a href="http://blah-blah.com">http://blah-blah.com</a> and you will find lots of blah blah there.

    - status of ASP .NET I'm looking at C# and ASP .NET these days. Visual Sudio 2005 looks like a neat dev. env. But before committing, I would like to know more about the current status of these tools. I noticed, that my site hoster does not support ASP at all. And more providers do not... PHP however, IS supported a lot, but does not have anything like .NET facilities, does it ? What is the status of the language wars these days ? ASP is still the way to go ? What is the market doing ? fr gr Erik Tag: IIS and VB. NET ASP Problem Tag: 323631

Can anyone point me to a tutorial or example code of how to write VBScript (or VB6) code that could look at two versions of a document and mark all differences between the two? I am working on a project for a newspaper. the goal is to be able to store each version of an article from rough draft to final copy, and look at any two versions in the process and see what changes were made.

    - Protecting ASP Applications: Need Opinions Hello All, I've finally written an asp app that is worthy of resale and would like to hear from you who have done the same. What is the best way to protect my application? I would like to stay away from anything that has to be registered on the server as most of my target audience will not have physical access to their web servers. They will just upload the code to their server and set directory permissions for the database. I 've purchased asp scripts myself in the past and had to provide a domain name where it would be running. It would not run on any other domain but the one I provided. Is this a practical approach or is there a better way? How is it done? I've also seen posts about putting some of the vb code into an activeX dll. Is this a solid solution? Again, How is this done? I appreciate anyone sharing their experience... Thanks in advance, -Bill- Tag: IIS and VB. NET ASP Problem Tag: 323573

Ciao, jay Tag: IIS and VB. NET ASP Problem Tag: 323569

I apologize if it is in appropriate to post this in two newsgroups...I also
posted on the IIS group...

I just installed VB .net 2003 and wanted to be able to develop using ASP. I
followed the instructions and installed IIS and the FP extensions (although
when I install FP I get a message the Microsoft Personal Web Server could not
be configured). I am running Windows XP Professional.

When I open IIS in the Microsoft Management Consol I cannot start or restart
the service and it is currently not started (does this matter?)

When I open VB .net and try to add an ASP project I get the error message
that "Visual Studio .NET cannot create or open the application because no Web
server was detected at this URL: 'http://localhost/WebApplication1'. ; Make
sure the Web server is installed and running.

Thanks in advance for any help!!!

Jay
