Here is my current situation. I have a Classic ASP script that gathers data from multiple sources then creates an XML file. Only once the script is done running should the newly created XML file (static name) be copied to a remote server. Since ASP cannot see the mapped network drive, I can't use ASP to copy the file over to our server. ...

Hi folks, in my SQL 2000 database, the model names for my vehicles have accents on some of the letters, like so Scénic 2.0 On the filesystem, the filenames look correct on the server if I browse the folder on the local machine, like so: Car-2005-Renault-Scénic-2_0--Multi-Purpose Vehicle-1157-01tn.jpg When I use the filename in a li...
We have a classic ASP page that is instantiating a .Net object through a COM interface. It was working fine for a long time, but over the weekend we applied some Windows updates and it is no longer working reliably in our production environment. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't and it seems random when it works. It doesn't fail i...

Classic ASP, VBScript context. A lot of articles including this Microsoft one, say you cannot use FileSystemObject to read Unicode files. I encountered this issue a while back, so switched to using ADODB.Stream instead, per the ReadText example here, instead of using FileSystemObject.OpenTextFile (which does accept a final parameter in...
on some computers, when a client opens the specific html page, part of the vbscript code on the client side gets trashed with hyphens. i saw that the vbscript code on that page was composed of one huge code section enclosed in script start and end tags. i decided to fragment it to small sections, and it seemed better, but when i fragmene...
Hi, I've recently been given a website written in classic asp to configure and set up - although it also appears to have pages written in asp.net. The problem I'm having at the moment is that it doesn;t appear to be picking up settings from the global.asa file such as Application("ConnectionString").... As when I try to write them out...
This is a bit of a throwback question, and probably relatively fundamental, but I'm at a loss. How does IIS manage Classic ASP session state? We have an app that stores user information in session, and when many users are using the app, it seems to be recycling session for users, even though the "expire period" has not elapsed. We su...
Hi there, I have a couple of classic ASP pages that require a user to enter their email and a specified 'keycode' that they have been given in order to gain access to a voucher that they can have emailed to them. A voucher code is then dynamically generated and (currently) sent in the query string of the url to a second page that would...

I was wondering if someone could help me, as I have gone blind to what I believe is a simple cause to a simple error. I have this code: doRound1(x1) denom1 = 5 y1 = denom1 - x1 mod denom1 if y1 <> denom1 then x1= x1+y1 end if doRound1=x1 End function 'theCalc = 20488888888.684 theCalc = cDbl(11111111111) * 1.844 ...

I am building a "quick little" app which needs a small database. I want to use Classic ASP (i.e. not ASP.NET), and I am wondering about SQLite for the database. It is possible to use SQLite from Classic ASP? How do I open / create / use a SQLite database from ASP? Any help / pointers gratefully recieved! ...
I'm at the receiving end of a HTTP POST (x-www-form-urlencoded), where one of the fields contains an XML document. I need to receive that document, look at a couple of elements, and store it in a database (for later use). The document is in UTF-8 format (and has the appropriate header), and can contain lots of strange characters. When I...
We have a recently internationalised application written in classic ASP. The following code replicates the issue.
