what is the difference between these two jscript statements?
object = new ActiveXObject("myobject.object");
vs
object = WScript.CreateObject("myobject.object");
on my samples they practically does the same. what are the differences (if any). when would you use one over the other?
I have installed MSDE on my local computer - Windows 2000 Professional. I have created a function which runs me a link whose path is placed in the input field. This function looks like this: Code:
View Replies View RelatedWhen you create an object in classic asp code, should you always use
Server.CreateObject("ProgID")? Are there implications with stability (ie
memory leaks) if you create COM objects in other ways in IIS?
We use Javascript for our ASP coding, using a mixture of
Server.CreateObject() and new ActiveXObject(). The web server hangs
occasionally (once every 2-3 months) and we were wondering if this might be
the culprit...
The statement in an asp page:
dim objShell
Set objShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
now gives this error:
VB err= 424,Object required
If I use setobjShell=Server.CreateObject("WScript.Shell"), I get the error
VB err= 5,Invalid procedure call or argument
I believe it stopped working in July 2004 after a security update. I have
re-registered the appropriate dlls and ocxs.
Does anyone have an idea? I am trying to use this object so that I can
execute a batch file that was created earlier in the program.
I'm using this code
var file = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");
file.Run(FileName);
but in case the file name is of type html i get the file in the same window and i'm 'loosing' my site.i want to have the new opened document in a new window.
I've made an ASP form page that is executed via a Javascript function. There's a javascript function that builds an XML object with the form values. But in some browers it seems to fail on the line that reads:
var objXML = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.DOMDocument.4.0");
It's works fine in my IE 5.0, 5.5 and 6.0 browsers. Any ideas why it fails for some users?
I'm not sure if I should send this in this forum on the VB forum but here it goes. Within my ASP file I have a JS function embedded within a VB subroutine. The VB subroutine calls the function which has 2 arguments -- a text string and an object. The string is passed to the function which returns the object. The object is defined in the function as:
var x= new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.DomDocument.4.0");
My question is how should the receiving object variable be declared in the VB subroutine?
how to use WScript in ASP? I figured out that if I use a WSH object to send the keystroke {F5} it will refresh the pages adequately. (see my thread Refreshing Pages! for what I am taling about) Anyway, this code: Code:
Set wshshell=WScript.CreateObject("wscript.shell")
wshshell.sendkeys {F5}
Should accomplish this. Or something similar should work. Anyways, I don't entirely know how to do this.

i created an asp script that calls wscript which in turn calls up an .bat file. I have tested this script on my machine on my home win2k3 machine but cannot reproduce the same thing on my other server. Right now, IIS requres "intergrated windows authentication" login and run the script.
I ve given the user account every possible permission combo i thought of. The script in question has permissiont to run, it even has admin priviledges for testing purposes. But nothing happens when i run it from my page. I am completly stuck right now. No idea how to persue this b/c ive exhuasted every possible thing i know and every tip i read about.
I am currently in the process of converting a website from an existing
web host to our servers. This website used the WScript.Shell command
to execute a series of Java commands that would send an encrypted
email.
I ran these commands directly on the server and they execute properly,
but when I try to run them from within the WScript.Shell command then
I get a return code of 1, and the actions that should be completed are
not.
The shell is executing a .bat file which is in the same directory the
text files it needs to run the following sample command(s): Code:

program either doesn't get invoked, or has an error, but since it has no error log i can't check that, so not sure why not getting a result i have run the program successfully from the command line in that directory, so know it can be run in the first place and the asp program creates and writes files in the same directory so i don't think its a permission problem. asp doesn't complain with any errors.
I am trying to use the Run method of WScript.Shell to run a program that creates image files on the server. When I run the program through the command line it creates a text file and a bmp file which is what it is supposed to do.
If I run it from an asp page it doesnt do anything, it also doesnt give me any error messages. I can run the same vbscript code in a standalone vbs file on the server and it works right. Code:
i'm trying to run a .vbs file from my asp web page using wscript but keep getting a 'permission denied' error on line 5
here is the code:

I've been testing the WScript.Shell object and the Run command now for a server query. The file I am running generates a file with the server querys which i later on parse in my page. But there is a problem. When running the Run command om my Windows XP machine it all seems fine. But when trying to run it on my webserver (not configured by myself) I get an error, or the command fails. It's nothing wrong with the acctuall command but ASP seems to not want to allow the Run command.
First I though it had to do with user privilegies but after giving the IUSR_X full access it didn't help. So, does anybody know a solution for this? Exactly what do I have to configure, for what user, to make this work on my webserver (win2k).
Trying to view asp page which has the following code in
Set obj = WScript.CreateObject('WScript.Shell')
It falls over on this line saying 'Activex cannot create component (wscript.shell)'. Doing the same in a .vbs file results in the same error. The platform is NT4 Server Service Pack 6a.
I've made an ASP page that calls a small executable and collects its text output into a variable ("strExeOut") below. Below is some code similar to the one I use for that purpose.
strExe = "C:whatevermyprogram.exe -h1 -d33"
Set objShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Set objScriptExec = objShell.Exec(strExe)
strExeOut = objScriptExec.StdOut.ReadAll
I developed this in my own computer and the whole thing works like a charm, but
unfortunately I assumed my hosting provider would let me run the (little and harmless) exe, and they won't.
Therefore I have to run only the "exe" portion of the code in another web server and send back the output to my website on the net. I'd like to get some feedback on what would be the best way to call an exe on another server, and to have the output sent back.
I have a big problem with some part of my code, where I'm using the wscript.shell method to open a file...
I've tried this:
dim shell
set shell= createobject("wscript.shell")
shell.run "C:Clip_CreatorTVSA02.bat"
set shell=nothing
and this
Function fnShellExecuteVB()
dim objShell
set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
objShell.ShellExecute "C:WINNT
otepad.exe", "", "", "open",1
set objShell = nothing
End Function
I don't get any error but the application doesn't starts, I've also tried executing the notepad.exe and occurrs the same, nothing happens, I don't get error but the notepad doesnt lunch...
I'm getting tired about this code, I've tried a lot of kinds of scripts but I got the same result...
I have a process that creates a whole bunch of files in a specified directory. The names of the files are the employee IDs with an .txt extension, so they are like
EMP001.txt
EMP002.txt
EMP003.txt
The background is a bit more complicated so I won't bore you with it, but I hope that I can add a button on the asp page that would
1) go to that specified directory, which is database-driven by the department id, such as
D:DepartmentDEPT001
and I'll be able to figure the directory path from the existing code
2) then loop through each employee id and append the employee name, so the above will become
EMP001JohnDoe.txt
EMP002MaryJane.txt
EMP003PeterKay.txt
The employee names are also database driven and my asp page will be able to provide the information.
What I would like is to have a button that would open the cmd.exe and make the appropriate changes, and then do the rename, and then close the cmd window.
I know that you can have something like: Code:
can SO tell me why the following script :
dim oShell
set oShell=WScript.CreateObject("WScript.shell")
oShell.run ("C:WINNTsystem32cmd.exe /c C:WINNTsystem32
otepad.exe")
set oShell=nothing
works as expected in the context of a .vbs script and doesn't work (with the following changes made...) when inserted in a .asp web page under IIS ?
dim oShell
set oShell=Server.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
'
intReturn = oShell.run ("C:WINNTsystem32cmd.exe /c C:WINNTsystem32
otepad.exe")
response.write(intReturn)

In file '1.asp' I call Server.CreateObject("a") to create an instance of
object 'a'.
I then call Server.Execute("2.asp") and want to pass the reference to the
object 'a' I just created to the script executing in '2.asp'. Session
cookies are not enabled so there is no session object.
Does anyone know if there is any documented way of doing that? or if there
is a good/right solution to this problem?
