My department has recently been tasked with converting an ASP 3.0 web
application to an ASP.NET 2.0 web application. Currently, in order to read
values from the ASP 3.0 Session from an ASP.NET web page we have to use a
session bridging technique.
There are several techniques out there to
workaround the incompatibility of the 2 session state storage mechanisms (3.0
vs .NET). The problem that I have with all of the techniques is the extra
time that elapses as we "call" the bridge from the ASP.NET page. The system
is already highly stressed with its abundance of users and I am looking for a
more elegant and faster solution. Code:
I've a problem with trying to retrieve a session variable in an include file.
Basically, the main asp creates a session variable:
<% Session("var1") = "Hello" %>
And then when I click on a button it refers to the include file, which I believe is all client-side code as there are no server <% %> tags.
I want to be able to use this session variable in the include file, how do I do this?
If I try retrieving this session variable with Session("var"), it will come up with an error saying that it has a type mismatch 'Session'.
The session state is enabled in IIS manager and appears to be working with the other session variables in asp's not written with the server tags <% %>.
The include file has the .asp extension and has two language sections and I want to use the session variable within the vbscript language tag like this: Code:
I have a site that I'm trying to migrate to ASP.NET from ASP, and the foremost stumbling block I'm hitting is session state between the ASP and ASP.NET applications. In order to access this information, I'm doing a HttpWebRequest from the ASP.NET side into an .asp page, passing the session name on the get in order to request it from the ASP side and write it back to the response stream, giving ASP.NET access to it. Of course I change sessions each time I make the call from the ASP.NET side.
Soooooo, I'm thinking to myself, "Self, shouldn't you be able to fake out the server by getting the session cookie from the initial usage of the asp, pass that data to the ASP.NET, and use that to send a request back the ASP side under the appropriate session?"
From a real high level, I enter the site via a .asp page. This page in turn calls .aspx page from within a frame ......
I want to create an administration page which lists all the current users who are on the site at the moment.
I know coldfusion has this feature built in using the SessionTracker class... does ASP have something similar? If not... is there any way I can just iterate through all the session files on the server...?
I have a Development server that is running Win2k, IIS 5.0, and ASP enabled. I am trying to gain access to an Access 2000 DB located on a file server within my domain. I'm pretty sure I have all the correct permissions set, but I am having problems when trying to access the DB.
The error is similar to:
The Microsoft Jet Database engine cannot open the file '******'. It is already opened exclusively by another user, or you need permission to view its data.
I'm looking for ways to fix this... Microsoft suggests turning off the ability for IIS to sync passwords. Unfortunately, this is not a viable solution for me.
Is it possible to create a new virtual server that is a share to my file server? Put my ASP and MDB file in there and have it work? Anyone have any other ideas?
I'm working on a site that inserts records into an Access database and Access assigns an auto-incrementing id for the record. How can I quickly figure out what id that was just created? I seem to remember there being a function for this....
I want to move my only window shosted client to linux. The site they have access a Microsoft Access database with the below code but i can't get it to work under Linux.
I'm trying to access a table in a MS Access database using ASP but the name of the table is causing me some trouble. The problem is the table name has a space in it eg, "My Table".
If i try and access it using a query "SELECT * FROM My News", it says i cant find table "My". If i remove the space from the name (to MyTable) it works fine. But the trouble is its a customers database and i cant easily rename it because its linked to other tables and db's.
How can i access a table with a space in its name? I've tried "SELECT * FROM My_News" but that doesnt work either.
I have an ASP page needs to access a remote MS Access2000 database, I got error "The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the file 'F:Collect.mdb'. It is already opened exclusively by another user, or you need permission to view its data. ".
The 'F:' is a mapped drive from remote machine where the access database loactes. If I copy the database back to local box, no problem.
I'm looking to make an online multiplayer game which will utilize Access Database... basically I require thousands of people writing and reading from the same database... I was wondering if this is possible for that... or is mdb file restricted to 1 person at a time...
If it is limited what would you suggest as the best way to control an interactive online environment? .txt files possibly?
What is this all about? Generally I run against SQL Server but now I have to use access. The query I want to run is a simple double join
SELECT tblArtists.*,tblGenres.name AS genreName,tblPages.pageId FROM (tblArtists INNER JOIN tblGenres ON tblArtists.genreId = tblGenres.genreId) LEFT JOIN tblPages ON tblArtists.artistId = tblPages.artistId ORDER BY surName ASC, firstName ASC
Now If I run this question in access against the database it accurateley returns two posts. BUT When I paste the same query into an asp document and runs it with a fileDSN against the same database it returns nothing!? Is this some kind of joke from Microsoft?
I have an Access DB which contains couple of link tables. All these tables are from different databases. So each one has it's own database password. Since there is no way to save the password during the DSN creation. Then you need to manually type in the password each first time when open the table.
This causes the problem in ASP code during run a query. Since the table cannot be accessed due to the password protection. Is there any statement than can open a table and meanwhile pass the password in? Does anyone experienced with the similar situation?
I have a site developed using ASP, but each page I enter has a different session id when accessing the site using the domain name of the site. When accessing the site from my network and using the internal IP address, it is OK. Any ideas?
I generate my codes using a generator. My problem is that I can not write into my Access database. I had gone to tools to allow access permission . still nothing.
I wrote a website, which uses the session to store and track some vars.
Now I am gonna to covert it to desktop application by Activesite compiler 5, however, it doesnot support session , cookie , application() . SO ,I have no idea to find something can instead of session.
My orignal processing: Session -> modify Session var -> store to Database.
There is a problem about ASP session ID. ASP session is implemented by storing session id in a session cookie, but I read this cookie in ISAPI Filter, get a string as following: ASPSESSIONIDQADCQQTS = IAOFCBBCGDGMDGCNJIKPNBAN
But the real session ID is 554851848. (Real sessionID is sessionID property the ASP session object)
Problem is what is relation between them? And how to get real session ID from cookie session ID.
I did a session("adminlogin")=1, if I post it to the same page, it returns true. But if I response.redirect to another page. This value doesn't exist anymore. This is on the actual server where all the ms security is updated.
The same script worked okay on my test server (the security patch not patched yet.)
Has anyone encountered this? How do you overcome it?
I tried searching the net it says the problem lies with a ms security patch. How I wish I can unintall that patch.
I have asp and asp.net web application. When I run it in IE7 in first tab it starts a new session. When I open second tab and browse to the same site the new session is not started (infact I need to have new session there).
Whereas, 2 IE instances generate 2 unique sessions. Only issue is with IE tabs. Firefox also has similar things but lets not talk about firefox here. I am more concerned with IE only.
In my login script I set session("User") = rs("User") the session timeout is set to 20 min
Do I need to setup some kind of update session variable on each page so that the timeout does run out or does iis update the variable aslong as I'm browsing the website ?
And another thing, <% application("something") %> works fine on my test server but once I implement it onto the main webserver I dont get any text out, is there some kind of switch that enables this function ?
My buttons default as you can see in the code. But I now want to take what is already choosen in database and chose apropriate button. Can I use a session to choose a radio button? Code:
I am using the session(loggedin) to see if a user is logged into that section of the site. The problem is that it is timing out on them, is there a way to define the length of the session (I think it times out at 10 or 20 mins currently), but to extend it to an hour or so. Any thoughts.
I've developed a shopping cart app in ASP, to secure transaction by SSL, it 've put only the checkout page in SSL but all other pages i.e. product, cart etc remains on non SSL connection. How can I track user session from non SSL to SSL checkout page as the SessionID changes when shifting to SSL (to prevent session stealing/ hijacking). I'm tracking user session by putting SessionID in cart DB with products. Given below the preview of cart table ....
I have a page that a user is logged in via a session that displays a thumbnail of a picture. The picture is a link to the full size image. When there is no target="_blank" in the code, it works fine.... except it needs to open in a new window. When I add target="_blank" the new open browser window seems to act as a whole new session (even though no session.abandon or anything had been called). I need it to keep the session, but in a new window. What do I need to do, and why is it doing this? Is a JavaScript window opener the (only) way to go?
I'm building a Shopping Cart, but then right away i've stumbled on a little problem. I need to Hold things a costomer is buying in a session. However I can't declare Session as an Aray.
Session("item_id")(2) doesn't work- right? So i was thinking maybe I can create an aray, and then somehow hold it's reference in a session("item_id"). I will apreciate if someone can show me how to save aray into the session, and how to extract it from there later on.
I'm setting up 2 websites for a friend of mine, en I'm have problems with one of the sites.The situation: I have 2 different domains (both in the .NL domain). Both domains provides the possibility for users to log in. The loginscript and the databases are hosted at server 1. The site at server 2 contains a link to the loginpage at server 1. That works well... so far. The problem is that when I log in at server 2, he doesn't accept it. I found out that the Session variable I use isn't recognised. I use Session("protected") to keep track of the users who are logged in. When there credentials are right according to the database, Session("protected")=True and the loginpage gives a redirection to partner.asp by doing Response.Redirect "partner.asp". Trying to log in from server 1 works fine, trying to log in from server 2 doesn't. My questions therefore are: 1. Is the Session variable rememberd by server 2 (although server 1 contains the loginpage en gives a redirection to a page on server 1) 2. What can I do to correct this problem? Your answers are appreciated, and sorry for the possible worse language in this message (English is not my native language ;))
