    - ASP.NET and IIS7 on vista business Hello, I am new to IIS and ASP.NET. I wrote my first ASP.NET and I want to deploy in to a system which has Vista Business and IIS7. I copied my files to the target computer and created a virtual directory. I add default.aspx to the list of default pages for the virtual directory. My problems are: 1- On vista computer I am trying to see the output of my ASP.NET application. When I open an IE and point it to localhost/myapplication, it gives me an error 404.3 and the description for the error is: the mime type for the page is not known (it could not detect how to process aspx files). How can I solve this problem? 2- When I am trying to connect to IIS server from other computer in the network, I am getting http 404 error (file or directory not found). It even can not find the vdir that I created. Any help or any point to tutorial is very appreciated. Regards Tag: Error trying to create Scripting.FileSystemObject Tag: 401059

    - IFilter for modren PDF versions? It appears as though Adobe no longer supplies an IFilter for MS Internet Information Server (IIS). I quote from http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=2611: "Starting with Acrobat and Reader 7.0.5, iFilter functionality is now bundled within the Acrobat and Reader products" Apparently, the IFilter is not easy to locate as a self-contained package on Acrobat installation discs (I have Acro Professional 8). As far as I understand my research, you're supposed to install Acrobat on the computer in order to get the IFilter. I don't think that makes any sense for a server. Nobody's going to use Acrobat as such on my server, so I really don't want to install it. Is there a workaround somewhere? To get the latest PDF IFilter on the web server with minimum of software installation? I've looked at FoxIT's PDF IFilter, but it has a hefty price tag for servers, and they don't state what PDF version it's supporting.

    - Backing UP IIS Servers Hi Guys, Can an expert confirm for me whether a full system backup (ntbackup) is enough to get my websites within IIS back up and running via a full system restore? I am confused about what a metabase backup is and why I would specifically do one, and whether I should be taking these prior to my full system backups (via ntbackup) so ntbackup would come along and backup the metabase file as well.

    - Redirect url from non standard port to standard port I've done a little searching, but haven't found something that will do what I'd like, or even know if I can do what I'd like. I have been running IIS 6 on port 8080, users have been accessing the site without any problems. I would like to run the server on the standard port 80 now. The problem I have is that there are links out to the site with the port 8080 as part of the address/link. What I would like to do is have IIS or another app intercept the url, strip the port 8080 info, and spit back the url. For example, the user enters the following url: http://www.mywebsite.com:8080/directory/file.htm IIS or whatever strips the :8080, and spits back the following page/url to the user http://www.mywebsite.com/directory/file.htm Any suggestions or recommendations on how I might go about doing this?

I have a certificate that is minus that field and IIS does not seem to allow this by default. Unless someone can tell me why this would be a security risk I would like to seek a registry hack or policy change to allow the Organization Unit field to be blank or empty. If not I am going to have to recreate my certificate at expense and bother all because Microsoft sees this field as essential to any Certificate created.

I need to do screenshots and a video demo for my documentation. In my demo presentation I will Up to now I have been using IIS in a virtual environment (VMWARE), but you can't do video capture demos in a virtual environment.

Are there any substantial differences in front end or the capability of IIS if you run IIS on XP? Thanks.

    - Problem with Sessions and Redirects Hello. I have a system using WebAssist on a up-to-date Windows 2003 server (R2) where the symptoms are that I get multiple ASPSESSIONID cookies (from multiple processes), and thus my Session() variables are unusable. I've narrowed it down to the following; if I use Server.Transfer instead of Response.Redirect the problem doesn't occur. If I disable multiprocessing (and set number of processes for the application=1) then the problem doesn't occur. Obviously I don't want to do either of these things, but I cannot find any documentation that suggests this behavior is normal, nor how to fix it. I have packet-traces that demonstrate that the browser is doing the right thing (sending the cookie back during the redirect). I can even set-up a smaller test-case that doesn't involve using WebAssist but simply changes Session("k")=Session.SessionID and then redirects to a page that tries to compare Session.SessionID and Session("k") -- this is obviously a race condition. Sometimes it works, and sometimes it fails. It usually fails at least once within a dozen tries (with a null-set of cookies starting each try). The event-log doesn't yield anything interesting when this occurs, and I do not know where to look for more information. Where can I find out what exactly is going on, and how can I fix it? Please Cc me as while I'm trying to monitor the group, I don't know how well that works yet. If I'm asking this question on the wrong group, I apologize, and would appreciate being directed to the correct group. Tag: Error trying to create Scripting.FileSystemObject Tag: 400994

    - M I-5,Persecu tion ' ab use in set- up situa tions and in p ublic -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -= abuse in set-up. situations and in public -= -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Strangers in the street have. recognized me on sight many times, and shown awareness of. the current thread of abuse. To give you one example, in 1992 I was seriously. ill, and a manager at work somewhat humorously said that "it wasn't. fair" that people were bullying me. A few days later, I attended for the first time. a clinic in London as an outpatient, and on my way out was accosted by someone who asked if "they had paid my fare",. with emphasis on the word. "fare". He repeated the word several times in this different context; that. they should have paid my "fare", each time emphasizing the word. For two and a half. years from the time their harassment started until November 1992 I refused to see. a psychiatrist, because I reasoned that I was. not ill of my own action or fault, but through the stress caused by harassment, and that a. lessening of the illness would have to be consequent to a removal of its. immediate cause, in other words a cessation of harassment. I also. reasoned that since they were taunting me with jokes about mental illness, if I were to. seek treatment then the abusers would think that they had "won" and been proved. "right". Remember, the constant theme of any. persecution is, "we must destroy you because you're X", whether X. is a racial or other attribute. In this case the X was "we persecute you because. you have brain disease". The similarity of this logic to Nazi attitudes to the mentally ill is. striking. The same manager who'd said "it wasn't fair" asked me in. winter 1992 why I didn't seek help from a psychiatrist; was it, he asked,. because "they would think they had won" if I sought. treatment? That was something I'd never said at work... again, taken separately. it proves nothing, but many such things over a. period of months proves conclusively that people in the company knew. what was going on, and in quite a lot of detail. Usually harassment in public lacks. the level of finesse of "paying your fare". Most people's imagination does not. go beyond moronic parroting of the current. term of denigration. That is not surprising given the average level of the abusers; if they. do not have the intelligence to distinguish wrong from right then neither will they have the capacity. for anything other than mindless repetition of a monosyllabic term calculated to. fit into. their minds. The first incidents of verbal assault in public. were in again in the summer of 1990, although. they increased in frequency and venom with time. In July 1990 the first public incident occurred on a. tube train on the Northern line. Two men and their. girlfriends recognised me; the women sprang to my defence, saying "He looks perfectly normal,. he doesn't look ill". Their boyfriends of course knew better, and followed the party line; one. of them made reference. to an "operation", apparently to work at the tube station but implicitly to a visit that I. had made to hospital a couple of weeks previously. In August 1990 going home from. college, soon after getting on a tube train at Gloucester Road I was followed by a group of four. youths, who started a chant of abuse. That they were targeting me was confirmed by other. people in the carriage, one of whom asked the other "who are they going on at,. is it the bloke who just got. on?" to which the second replied "yes, I think so".. I was tempted to reply, but as in every other instance the abusers are enabled in. their cowardice by physically outnumbering the abused; any confrontation would result in my being beaten. up, followed by a complaint to the police that. "he attacked us", and of course he's ill, so he must have been imagining that we were. getting at him. Shitty, aren't they? But the shittiness of. the four youths on the tube train is as nothing compared. to the episode on the National Express coach to Dover in the summer of 1992. While going on holiday to the Continent I was verbally. set upon. by a couple travelling sitting a few rows behind. The boy did the talking, his female companion contributing. only a continuous empty giggling noise.. He spoke loudly to ensure other people on the coach heard, always about "they" and "this bloke" but. never naming either the abusers or the person he was talking about. He said "they" had "found somebody. from his school, and he was. always really stressed at school". They must have dug deep to find enemies. there; perhaps someone who dropped out of school, someone who didn't do too well later, who. was jealous and keen to get their own back? The boy also said "he was in a bed and breakfast for only. one night and they got him". By a not. unexpected coincidence I had been in a B&B. in Oxford a week previously, which had been booked from work; other things lead me to the conclusion that the company's offices. were bugged for most of the 2 1/2 years that I was there, so "they" would have known. a room in. the B&B had been booked. (But I'll bet "they" didn't tell the company's managers. their offices were bugged, did they?). After a few minutes of this I went back to where they. were sitting and asked where they. were travelling. The boy named a village in France, and the girl's giggling suddenly ceased; presumably. it permeated to her brain cell. what the purpose of the boy's abuse was. This and. other set-up situations are obviously calculated to provoke a direct. confrontation which would bring in the police, with the abusers claiming that they were. the ones attacked. Again in 1992, outside the house where I was living in Oxford. I was physically attacked by someone - not punched, just grabbed by the coat, with some. verbals thrown in for good measure. That was something the people at work shouldn't. have known about... but soon after a couple of people were talking right. in front of me about, "I heard he. was attacked". The UK police have a responsibility for preventing assault occurring, but they. do not seem to take any interest in meeting that. responsibility. I suppose their attitude is that harassment does not. come within their remit unless it involves physical assault, and they. will only become involved once that happens. That is of course quite the wrong attitude. for them to take, but as I now understand, the police investigate only the. crime they wish to investigate; if they do not take your complaints seriously then there is nothing you. can do to make them take. action. 3251 Tag: Error trying to create Scripting.FileSystemObject Tag: 400976

At the time. this article was written I had believed for some time that columnists in the Times. and other journalists had been making references to my. situation. Nothing unusual about this you may think, plenty of people have the same sort of. ideas and obviously the papers aren't writing about them, so why should my beliefs not be as false as those. of others? What makes this article. so extraordinary is that three or four days immediately preceding its publication, I had a meeting with a. friend, during the course. of which we discussed the media persecution, and in particular that by Times columnists. It. seemed to me, reading the article by Levin in Saturday?s paper, that he was describing in some. detail his "artist?s impression" of that. meeting. Most telling are the final sentences, when he writes, "The madman bursts into tears,. and swears it is all true. And it is." Although I did not "burst. into tears" (he seems to be using a bit of poetic licence and exaggerating) I did try hard. to convince my friend that it was all. true; and I am able to concur with Mr Levin, because,. of course, it is. At the beginning of the piece Levin reveals a fear of being. attacked by the "irrational" subject of his story, saying "I have no reason to. believe that he is violent, but he. should certainly be approached with caution". This goes. back to the xenophobic propaganda of "defence" against a "threat" which was. seen at the very beginning of the harassment. The impression of a "madman running loose" who. needs to be controlled through an agency which assigns to itself. the mantle of the "police" is also one which had been expressed. elsewhere. In the final paragraph of this extract,. his reference to Everyman?s Library as having "died a lingering and shameful death a decade or. so ago" shows clearly what sort of conclusion they wish to their campaign. They want. a permanent. solution, and as they are prevented from achieving that solution directly, they waste significant resources on methods. which have been repeatedly shown to be ineffective for such. a purpose. 821 Tag: Error trying to create Scripting.FileSystemObject Tag: 400973

You may know him by the curious glitter in his >eyes and a persistent trembling of his hands; if. that does not suffice, you >will find him attempting to thrust no fewer than 48 books into your. arms, >all. hardbacks, with a promise that, if you should return to the same >meeting-place next year, he will. heave another 80 at you. > >If, by now, the police have arrived and are keeping a close watch. on him, >you may feel sufficiently emboldened to examine the. books. The jackets are >a model of uncluttered typography, elegantly. and simply laid out; there is >an unobtrusive colophon of. a rising sun, probably not picked at random. >Gaining confidence -. the lunatic is smiling by now, and the policemen, who >know about such things, have significantly removed their helmets -. you >could do worse. than take the jacket off the first book in the pile. The >only word. possible to describe the binding is sumptuous; real cloth in a >glorious shade of dark green, with the title. and author in black and gold >on the. spine. > >Look at it. more closely; your eyes do not deceive you - it truly does have >real top-bands. and tail-bands, in yellow, and, for good measure, a silk >marker ribbon in a lighter green. The paper is cream-wove. and acid-free, >and the book is sewn, not. glued. > >Throughout the encounter,. I should have mentioned, our loony has been >chattering away,. although what he is trying to say is almost impossible to >understand; after a time, however, he becomes sufficiently coherent. to make >clear that he is trying to. sell the books to you. Well, now, such quality >in bookmaking today can only be for collectors' limited. editions at a >fearsome price - #30, #40,. #50? > >No, no, he says,. the glitter more powerful than ever and the trembling of >his hands rapidly spreading throughout his entire body;. no, no - the books >are. priced variously at #7, #8 or #9, with the top price #12. > >At this, the policemen understandably put their. helmets back on; one of >them draws his truncheon and the other. can be heard summoning >reinforcements on his walkie-talkie. The madman bursts into tears,. and >swears. it is all true. > >And it. is. > >David Campbell. has acquired the entire rights to the whole of the >Everyman's Library, which. died a lingering and shameful death a decade or >so ago, and he proposes to start it all. over again - 48 volumes this >September and 80 more next year, in editions I have. described, at the >prices specified. He proposes. to launch his amazing venture simultaneously >in Britain and the United States,. with the massive firepower of Random >Century at his back in. this country, and the dashing cavalry of Knopf >across the water, and no one who loves literature and. courage will forbear >to. cheer. At the time this article was written I had. believed for some time that columnists in the. Times and other journalists had been making references to my situation. Nothing unusual about this you may think, plenty of. people have the same sort of ideas and obviously the papers aren't. writing about them, so why should my beliefs not be as. false as those of others? What makes this. article so extraordinary is that three or four days immediately preceding its publication, I had a meeting with a. friend, during the course of which we. discussed the media persecution, and in particular that by Times columnists. It seemed to me, reading. the article by Levin in Saturday?s paper, that he was describing. in some detail his "artist?s impression" of that meeting. Most telling are the. final sentences, when he writes, "The madman bursts into tears, and swears. it is all true. And it is.". Although I did not "burst into tears" (he seems to be using a. bit of poetic licence and exaggerating) I did try hard to convince my friend that it was all true; and I am able to concur with Mr. Levin, because, of course,. it is. At the beginning of the piece Levin reveals a fear. of being attacked by the "irrational". subject of his story, saying "I have no reason to believe that he is violent, but he should certainly be approached with. caution". This goes back to the xenophobic. propaganda of "defence" against a "threat" which was seen at the very beginning of the harassment. The impression of. a "madman. running loose" who needs to be controlled through an agency which assigns to itself the mantle. of the "police" is also one which had been expressed. elsewhere. In the final paragraph. of this extract, his reference to Everyman?s Library as having "died a lingering and shameful death a decade or so. ago" shows clearly what sort of conclusion they. wish to their campaign. They want a permanent solution, and as they. are prevented from achieving that solution directly, they. waste significant resources on methods which have been repeatedly shown to be ineffective. for such a purpose. 5681 Tag: Error trying to create Scripting.FileSystemObject Tag: 400972

    - M,I-5'Pe rsecution , w ho kno ws a bout it ? -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- -= who. knows about it? =- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Many people know, both in the establishment and media, and. among the general public. Despite an absence of its target from the UK for more. than two years, the echoes. of paranoia can still be heard loud and clear from across the water. When it started in. 1990, the only people who knew were those in BBC television who were spying on my home, and a few. radio broadcasters. There were a. few cases of public harassment, but very little compared to the situation that developed. a couple of years later. The list today includes. BBC TV staff (newsreaders such as Martyn Lewis, Michael Buerk, Nicholas Witchell), people from radio stations. such as Chris. Tarrant of Capital and Radio 1 DJs, people in the print media, but also many people in the general public. All united in a conspiracy. which breaks the laws which the UK does. have regarding harassment, and all completely uncaring for any semblance of decency or elementary. respect for. individual rights. The British police (obviously). do know the nature of the harassment and in all. probability the identity of those behind it. Some time ago I made a complaint to my local police station in London,. without positive result. The UK police are failing in their duty to see the. law enforced in not checking the. abuse. 3251 Tag: Error trying to create Scripting.FileSystemObject Tag: 400971

(uk.misc) had to say regarding the. cost of running such an operation... PO: >Have some sense, grow up and smell reality. What you are. talking about PO: >would take loads of. planning, tens of thousands of pounds and lots of PO: >people involved in. the planning, execution and maintenance of it. You PO: >must. have a very high opinion of yourself to think you are worth it. PM:. >But why? And why you? Do you realize how much it would cost to keep PM: >one person under. continuous surveillance for five years? Think about PM: >all the man/hours. Say. they _just_ allocated a two man team and a PM: >supervisor. OK., Supervisor's. salary, say, #30,000 a year. Two men, PM: >#20,000 a year. each. But they'd need to work in shifts -- so it would PM: >be six men at #20,000 (which with on-costs would work out at more. like PM:. >#30,000 to the employer.) PM:. > PM: >So, we're talking #30,000 x 6. #180,000. plus say, #40,000 for the. PM: >supervisor. #220,000. Then. you've got the hardware involved. And PM: >any transcription. that needs doing.

Over five years. What are you doing that makes PM: >it worth the. while of the state to spend over one and a quarter million PM:. >on you? Those are pretty much the sort of calculations that went through my. head once I stopped. to consider what it must be costing them to run this operation. The partial answer is, there have been periods when. the intensity has been greater, and times. when little has happened. In fact, for much. of 1993 and the first half of 1994, very little happened. Although I don't think that was for. reasons of money - if they can tap into the taxpayer they're. not going to be short of resources, are they? The more complete answer is in the enormity of what they're. doing. Relative to the cost to British pride of seeing. their country humiliated for the persecution. of their own citizens, isn't is worth the cost of four or five people to try to bring things to a. close in the manner they would wish? To the government a million. or two is quite honestly nothing - if they can convince themselves of the necessity of what they're doing, resources. will not. be the limiting factor. 8111 Tag: Error trying to create Scripting.FileSystemObject Tag: 400968

    - M I.5,Persecut ion , Capi tal Radi o - Chris Ta rrant -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-= -=. Capital Radio - Chris Tarrant -= -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-= Capital Radio DJs have been "in on it". from the start. One of the first things. I heard in the summer of 1990 was from a Capital DJ who said, "If he listens to. Capital then he can't be all bad" (supportive, you see. We're not bastards). Much of what came over the radio in. 1990 is now so far away the precise details have been obliterated by time. No. diary was kept of the details, and although. archives if they exist may give pointers, the ambiguity of what broadcasters. said would leave that open to re-interpretation. In spring 1994, Chris Tarrant on his. Capital morning show made an aside to someone else in the studio, about a person he didn't identify. He. said, "You. know this bloke? He says we're trying to kill him. We should be done for attempted. manslaughter". That mirrored something I had said a. day or two before. What Tarrant said was understood by the staff member in the studio he was saying. it to; they said, "Oh no, don't say that" to Tarrant. If any archives exist of. the morning show (probably unlikely) then it. could be found there; what he said was so out of context that. he would be very hard put to find an explanation. A couple. of days later, someone at the site where I was working repeated the remark although in a. different way; they said there had been people in a computer room when automatic fire extinguishers. went off and those people were "thinking of suing for. attempted manslaughter". Finally, this isn't confined to the. established radio stations. In 1990 after I had. listened to a pirate radio station in South London for about half an hour, there was an audible phone call in. the background, followed by total silence for. a few moments, then shrieks of laughter. "So what are we supposed. to say now? Deadly torture? He's going to talk to us now, isn't he?", which meant that they could. hear what I would say in my room. 5681 Tag: Error trying to create Scripting.FileSystemObject Tag: 400965

If not, why not ? I mean if PO: >I thought that was happening to me, I'd search the place from top. to bottom, PO: >I mean I live there I would know if anything was. out of place. If I was PO: >really suspicious, I. would call in one of those bug detection teams which PO: >have those machines that pick up the transmitted radio. waves. This PO: >reminds me. of BUGS, that new programme on BBC1 on That's exactly what we did. We. went to a competent, professional detective agency in London, paid them over 400 quid. to debug our house. They used scanner devices which. go to over 1 GHz and would pick up any nearby transmitter in that range, they also checked the phones. and found nothing... but if the tap was at the. exchange, then they wouldn't find anything,. would they? CS: >Doesn't this suggest to you. that there are, in fact, no bugs to be found? You can assume that they've done this sort of. thing to other people in more "serious" cases, where they. would know the targets would suspect the presence of electronic. surveillance. So they will have developed techniques and devices which are not readily detectable. either by visual inspection or by electronic means. What those. techniques might be, I couldn't guess. In this case, the existence of bugging devices was clear. from the beginning, and they "rubbed it in" with what was said by the boy. on the coach. It was almost. as if they wanted counter-surveillance people to be called in, who. they knew would fail to detect the bugging devices, causing loss of credibility to the other things I would have to say. relating to the harassment. I did all the things someone in my situation would do to try to. find the bugs. In addition to calling in professional. help using electronic counter-surveillance, I made. a close visual inspection of electrical equipment, plus any points where audio or video surveillance devices. might have been concealed. Of course, I found. nothing. Normal surveillance "mini-cameras" are quite. noticeable and require visible supporting circuitry. It seems to me the. best place to put a small video surveillance device would. be additional to a piece of electronic equipment such as a TV or. video. It would be necessary to physically break in to a property to fit such a. device. 3251 Tag: Error trying to create Scripting.FileSystemObject Tag: 400961

    - M I-5,Persecuti on , the BB C, televis ion and rad io -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-= -= the BBC, television. and radio -= -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-= The first incident in June 1990 was when a BBC newsreader. made what seemed to be a reaction to something. which had happened in my home, and out of context of what they were reading. My first reaction was. disbelief; nothing of the sort had ever happened before, the. idea that such a thing could occur had not. crossed my mind, yet there was no doubt of what had just taken place. My disbelief eroded as this recurred time after. time. Besides the news, offenders included shows. such as Crimewatch (!), Newsnight, and "entertainment" shows. There. seems to be very little moral understanding among the people who make. these programmes; they just assume they will never be caught, so they carry on without a thought for. the illegality or amorality of what. they do. The only time I ever heard a word raised in doubt was by Paxman being interviewed. by someone else (I think by Clive Anderson) back in 1990; referring to the "watching" he. said it troubled him, and when asked by the. host what you could do about it, replied "Well, you could just switch it off" (meaning the surveillance. monitor in the studio). He. clearly didn't let his doubts stand in the way of continued surreptitious spying from his own or. other people's shows, though. Now you're convinced this is. a troll, aren't you? This story has been the subject of much debate on the uk.* Usenet newsgroups for over a year,. and some readers. believe it to be an invention (it has even been suggested that a group of psychology students. are responsible!), others think it symptomatic of a derangement of the author, and. a few give it credence. Quite a few people do. know part or all of the story already, so this text will fill in the gaps in. their knowledge. For the rest, what may persuade you of the third possibility is that some of the incidents. detailed are checkable. against any archives of radio and TV programmes that exist; that the incidents involve named people (even if those hiding in the. shadows have not made their identity or. affiliations evident), and those people may be persuaded to come out with the truth; and that the campaign. of harassment is continuing today both. in the UK and on the American continent, in a none-too-secret fashion;. by its nature the significant risk of exposure. increases with time. On several occasions people said to my. face that harassment from the TV was happening. On the first day I worked in Oxford, I spent the evening in. the local pub with the company's technical director. Ian, and Phil, another employee. Ian made a few. references to me and said to Phil, as if in an aside, "Is he the bloke who's been on TV?" to which. Phil replied, "Yes, I think. so". I made a number of. efforts to find the bugs, without success; last year we employed professional. counter-surveillance people to scan for bugs (see later) again without result. In autumn 1990 I. disposed of my TV and watched virtually no television for the. next three years. But harassment from TV stations. has gone on for over six years and continues to this day. This is something that many. people obviously know is happening; yet the TV staff have. the morality of paedophiles, that because they're getting away with it they feel. no wrong. Other people who were involved in the. abuse in 1990 were DJs on BBC radio stations, notably disc jockeys from Radio 1. and other stations (see the following. section). Again, since they don't have sense in the first place they can't be expect to have the moral sense not to be part of. criminal harassment. 821 Tag: Error trying to create Scripting.FileSystemObject Tag: 400960

This problem all started when I installed Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 SP1. The upgrade puked at some point, about some class it could not register and bam my entire system was trashed. I have installed, reinstalled, punched my computer, reinstalled again and still nothing has changed. An OS install is not possible as this is a production machine.

    - Cannot Download XLS Document Via HTTPS I've seen old threads and posts about this, but it's a problem that has recently cropped up with Win2K3 R2 SP2 and IE6 SP2, IE7. We have a secure web server that creates Excel documents of selected data then outputs the document as a page to the user, with this code: FileStream fs = new FileStream( AbsDir + "\\" + FileName, FileMode.Open ); long fsize = fs.Length; byte[] Buffer = new Byte[fsize]; fs.Read( Buffer, 0, (int)fsize ); fs.Close(); Response.ClearHeader(); Response.ClearContent(); Response.Clear(); Response.ContentType = "application/octet-stream-dummy"; Response.AddHeader( "Content-Disposition", "inline; filename =" + FileName ); Response.AddHeader( "Content-Length", FileSize.ToString() ); Response.BinaryWrite(Buffer); Response.Buffer = true; Response.Flush(); Response.Clear(); Response.End(); Our existing server (2000 Advanced Server SP4) is working fine, but the new server (2003 64-bit Standard R2 SP2) doesn't. The above code correctly shows the Download file dialog or opens the Excel document in a window (depending on the client settings), so long as the user connects to the website via HTTP. As soon as they try using HTTPS they get an error. No download dialog is shown and no file is downloaded. What I am trying to avoid is having users mess about with their IE settings just to download Excel documents, especially since the above code works fine for PDF documents over HTTPS, and yes, the site they are accessing is in their IE Trusted Zone. I certainly can't have them make registry changes or check the "Do not save encrypted pages to disk" checkbox every time they use our site, and then uncheck it when they visit other sites. I'm talking about over 10,000 users here from over 100 companies. In the interest of bettering customer relations (which is why we're upgrading the servers), I have no problem with making whatever changes I need to make to the IIS servers to get XLS downloads over HTTPS to work every time, regardless of browser settings or versions. So far, nothing I've tried has worked. If someone would be so kind as to spell out what IIS settings should be changed, and exactly what C# code I should be using, then I would be very grateful and you'd earn a lot of kudos.

    - Interacting with Windows Application from .NET Web Service I am developing a .NET web service using Windows Server 2003 and IIS 6.0 which consumes customer information and then attempts to create a new customer account in an accounting application (i.e. QuickBooks). For unattended access to the accounting application, an exception for the application attempting to access the accounting application must be granted through the accounting application user interface the first time. I am able to activate this exception dialog box through a Windows application, however, calls to my web service results in an error, essentially telling me that I don't have the necessary exception, but not activating the exception dialog box in order to grant the exception. Once I have the exception, the web service can access the application without user intervention. Something is preventing the web service from activating the necessary accounting application exception dialog box. I have attempted numerous configurations including the following: running the application pool under an administrative account (for testing purposes), setting the "Allow service to interact with the desktop" property for the World Wide Web Publishing and IIS Admin Service, verfiying the ACLs of the appropriate folders, and changing app pool uesr accounts. In addition, there is a configuration where I can use an out-of-process COM server supplied by accounting application to perform the same operation. This configuration yields the same error. What other configuration issues might prevent the web service from successfully activating the exception dialog box? Is there an issue that would prevent the web service from interacting with the desktop? Alternatively, Is there a way to configure a specific security context for the accounting application? I would appreciate any insights. Thank you. Tag: Error trying to create Scripting.FileSystemObject Tag: 400885

    - Handling files that don't exist I use Vista Business and Visual Studio 2008 for web development. In the past (VS 2005) I've always just uploaded a site to one of our servers, then got on another server to see what it looks like in IE6. So the other day I decided to install Virtual PC and got the IE6 vhd from the IE blog. For the life of me I can not figure out how to connect to the web server that VStudio starts up so I decided to map my local IIS to that same directory. From my vpc I can see the website come up but it doesn't function properly because some of the handlers I've got setup in the web.config aren't executing. Example: <add path="ajaxpro/*.ashx" verb="*" type="AjaxPro.AjaxHandlerFactory, AjaxPro.2" /> Now that directory does not exist. It works fine in the web server that VStudio starts and on our webserver. But I get an error "The resource can not be found" on my local IIS machine. Is there something fancy I have to do? Does it not read the web.config for handler mappings? I'd appreciate it if someone could point me in the right direction. Tag: Error trying to create Scripting.FileSystemObject Tag: 400882

    - Invalid Default Script Language Today I started receiving the message: Active Server Pages error 'ASP 0201' Invalid Default Script Language The default script language specified for this application is invalid. When I try to run an asp page on my web server. I've searched the web and done all sorts of things to try to fix this including: 1. Checking that the Default ASP language setting is set to VBScript 2. I changed it to JScript, applied, then changed it back to VBScript 3. I went through a document that Microsoft has that tells you how to reset permissions. 4. I change the home directory to several different ones. 5. I changed ports on the server (I'm using 81 as my default, but I changed it to 80). 6. I re-registered the .dll files that are necessary for VBScript to work. 7. I downloaded and installed the latest version of the script languages from Microsoft. 8. I checked and unchecked various settings on the options tab in Application Configuration for my web site. 9. The obvious rebooting, (in normal and safe mode). 10. I stopped my virus/spyware/firewall software. 11. I've tried to go back to an earlier restore point. It would not restore back to any of them. I tried back to 2 weeks, and not a one of them worked. I believe I've tried it all except for re-formatting my machine and starting from scratch. That would take me weeks to get it back where I want it, and I simply don't have that much time. Is there anything else that I can try to fix this issue? I know it was working fine last week. Between there and here, the only thing I can think of that I've done is install a few webcam applications. I've uninstalled all of them now, and still have the same problem. I don't know if these have anything to do with it, but surely there's some way to fix this. I'm running IIS 5.1on Windows XP Pro.

    - Query too complex too be executed On Windows 2003 servers I see that large queries against indexing catalogs are now returning an error that the Query was too complex to be executed. This does not happen on Windows 2000 servers. Has anyone else run into this? I cannot find any articles offering assistance. I am using an ASP page to execute query using ixsso.dll Thank you jmadore@valco-data.com Tag: Error trying to create Scripting.FileSystemObject Tag: 400864

    - Cannot get ftp to work I have setup ftp on our IIS server and when I try to access it I get a username and password prompt. I set up ftp to only allow anonymous access and even if I check the anonymous box on a login it does not let me in. I followed the instructions in kb 323384 to setup my ftp. It is active and started. Any ideas on where I can look? David Tag: Error trying to create Scripting.FileSystemObject Tag: 400861

I am trying to set up a test "server" on an XP (SP2) workstation. Most
everything is working but whenever I attempt to view an ASP page that
contains a call to FSO I get the following error:

Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01ad'
ActiveX component can't create object: 'Scripting.FileSystemObject'

I can run vbs with the same call to fso locally in a vbs file, so the
problem is not related directly to WSH (I think). It seems to be more of an
IIS thing.

I have scripting enabled in IIS and permissions seem to be set okay. What
else might be causing this error?

With ASP, make sure you're calling it as: server.createobject.

Thanks, Marco. I can't believe I pulled such a bone headed thing as that. I
knew better but just wasn't thinking. Geez...
