I have both cdosys.dll and cdonts.dll on my W2K3 server. We have been told by our web authors that their asp code won't work on our machine and that we don't have CDONTS installed on our machine. They're getting an error from:
Set objCDOMail = Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail")
I know that the new format is:
Set objCDOMail = Server.CreateObject("CDO.Message")
Is there something special that we have to have installed to make CDONTS work?
I have an email script that used to work but now doesn't, my web host told me I have to use CDOSYS instead of CDONTS.If it's not to much trouble could someone look at my script below and make it CDOSYS compliant.Thanks

View Replies View RelatedIs it necessary to set field configurations for CDOSYS?
I have yet to recode all my existing uses of CDONTS over to CDOSYS. In most
of the sample code I've seen on the usual ASP sites, there is code to set
field configurations for CDOSYS (usually using With... End With). However,
in a number of CDOSYS-related code samples offered within this news group,
the field configuration code is absent.
could someone please explain the difference between CDO, CDONTS and CDOSYS. I was just wondering why they don't just have one instead of many. Code:
View Replies View RelatedFor send mail from a web page is there any benefit in using CDOSYS over CDONTS? Are the methods the same? How do you Set the object?
View Replies View RelatedI've been searching high and low for a decent comparitive analysis of the various e-mail components for IIS (specifically for use with ASP).
Here are a few that are pretty common: ASPMail - I've been using this, but it seems that if the SMTP server is backed up, it slows down ASP page that submits the mail, apparently because this version does NOT provide message queuing
ASPQMail - This component provides the queuing options, which theoretically would avoid ASP slowdown when the SMTP server backs up. Unfortunately my host doesn't offer this component.
CDONTS - Comes with IIS, so widely supported
CDOSYS - Comes with IIS 5 & later
JMail - A free component, also widely used. Documentation is poorly translated into English and difficult to follow.
Putting aside the fact that every web host supports a different set of mail components and "your mileage may vary"...
What is the best-performing solution?
I have a form that needs to handle international characters withing the UTF-8
character set. I have tried all the recommended strategies for getting utf-8
characters from form input to email message and I cannot get it to work. I
need to stay with classic asp for this.
Here are some things I tried:
'CDONTS
Call msg.SetLocaleIDs(65001)
'CDOSYS
msg.HTMLBodyPart.Charset = "utf-8"
I included the following meta tag in the email HTML:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
I also tried modifying the CharSet and CodePage of all involved Request and
Responses.
I was able to Response.Write the form content on post back to the screen and
it was properly rendered. However, none of my efforts can get the email to
render with the correct codebase. I have tried opening the email in Outlook
and Thunderbird. Neither one picks up on the UTF-8 charset meta tag.
When using CDOSYS, if an email address contains a hyphen(-) prior to the @ sign, the form will fail. Can anyone reading this who uses CDOSYS test this same scenario in their environment? I wonder if this is a CDOSYS issue, or something specific to my situation.
When using CDONTS, we can only send to email addresses that are internal to our company. For example, any emails addressed to(E-Mail address blocked: See forum rules) go through fine. For all non widgetsRus email addresses, such as Internet addresses, the form submits but the delivery never occurs and so failure messages are returned.
This single form has been setup on two servers, on the one server it works fine and can be sent to non widgetsRus recipients. The same form on a different server does not. I know it's not the code so I'm wondering if there are some SMTP settings that could be the problem?
I run a web site that uses various forms to send email to customers. For example, I have a "Forgot your password?" script and a "Email this page" script.I've found out that when a user sends an email via my site to a Hotmail address, the email just "disappears." I'm assuming Hotmail is considering the email SPAM because it was send by my web server? The site uses ASP and I've tried using CDONTS and CDOSYS (which I specified a SMTP server for) and nothing seems to work for Hotmail.
A large portion of my customers user Hotmail, so banning it really isn't an option.Is there anything I can do to prevent Hotmail from blocking my site's emails?
I put the following code into my mailer: Code:
if objIndexMail.Send then
Response.Write("Mail Sent")
else
Response.Write("Failure. ")
end if
and it's coming up as Failure every time. Is there a way I can see the status of the .Send command, and why it came up as a failure? no errors are being generated, it's just not sending..
For some reason, the email scripts on my web site can't send emails to
Hotmail accounts. No error is generated, but no email is sent either. I've
done some searching on this matter, and it appears as though I'm not the
only one having this problem, but I have yet to find a solution :(
Below is my CDOSYS script that was *supposed to* resolve the problem by
passing the SMTP server's along with the email, but it doesn't work :(
Have any of you had success with sending emails to Hotmail accounts via CDO?
I don't have control over the server's setup because it's a hosted account...
i recently finished a tutorial on cdonts and finished putting together the page and form etc. now ive been reading and it seems cdonts is being discontinued and cdosys is taking over. does this mean that my cdonts will not work and i have to trnasfer it to cdosys ?
how can i transfer it to cdosys ? or do i have to make a completely new mail script?

I am trying to get a asp-mailer setup that will send a specified attachment.

View Replies View RelatedI hava a new Windows 2003 box running IIS.When I try and display an asp page it says page not found.but the page is there.I've checked the settings in IIS - I have execute
permissions script only.What do I have to do to allow ASP to run?
I have a very simple database call running on a W2K3 server. I moved it over from a W2K box. However, when it is run on the 2K3 server, it leaves a lock on. It is an ASP page and not and ASPX page. It works perfect on the W2K box.
Anyone else have this probelm or better yet a cure for this problem? I do not have the time to convert it to ASP.NET yet. The ODBC driver is a bit different. One is V 4.00.6205 dated 3/2003 the one on the W2K box is version 4.00.6200 dated 6/2003.
I've develop a simply exe app that merge two or more document in one using MsWord automation.
I call this exe from an asp page (giving authorization to IAWM IUSR...). This run ok on a web server with Xp and IIS 5.1 but don't work on W2K3 and IIS 6.0.
I just finished writing an app for an ASP.NET website which uses SQL, C# ASP.NET and web services on my development box. Ported the app over to the Web Server(running W2K3, IIS 6, SQL2K), created the website on IIS, setup the appropriate SQL db, and loaded VS.NET 2K3 to compile the app. However,the app will not compile due to ASPNET and Network Service not having the specific permissions.
Are ASPNET and Network Service both process accounts? And, which directories should permissions be granted for compiling and running the app? One way (which was suggested by a supervisor) to go around this (and compromise security, I think) is to use the Local System process account. I created the app on a W2K box with IIS 5 and SQL2K, and I have had no problems debugging it to where it's ready for production testing.
I have some ASP 3 pages that instantiate a COM component. That
component writes messages to the one of the Windows event logs.
Things work as I expect them to on XP Pro but not on 2003 Server. I
figured it was a security thing, so I surfed around and found that
permissions were tightened in the server's first service pack. The fix
I found[1] said to append an ACE[2] to the event log's CustomSD
registry value found at
HKLMSYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesEventLog{L OG_NAME}CustomSD
I tried three different ones with a reboot after appending each one:
1. (A;;0x3;;;AU)
2. (A;;0x3;;;NS)
3. (A;;0x0002;;;S-1-5-21-237510213-3056582554-1478882900-1003)
The last uses the full SID of the IUSR account on the Windows 2003 I'm
working on. I obtained that ID using this vbscript: Code:
At least once per day I am receiving this error on this
specific page.
"Error: File /customer/record.asp Unexpected error. A
trappable error (C0000005) occurred in an external object.
The script cannot continue running.."
This page gets hit thousands of times per day yet it
usually only logs one incident of this error per day.
I have checked every resource and made all the recommended
fixes but it still occurs.
This page uses some ADODB connections, Jmail, and sets a
few cookies. I cannot reproduce the error. I have no clue
as to what it could be. All code is sound and works
correctly.
Can I run my asp applications on a 64 bit machine?
View Replies View RelatedI have a request from a fellow conrtractor (differnt company) to have a form pass the users IP and machine name upon submission. I know that request.serverVariables("remote_addr") and request.serverVariables("remote_host") will yield the users IP but do not know of anything that will pony up the machine name.
I contend that under normal circumstances a browser doesn't have access to the machine name for user security reasons but my friend doesn't agree and insists it is "somewhere in the envirnment information." He may know something I don't but he doesn't know enough to show me how to extract what he wants in the form.
Further information: we are working on a Microsoft Active Directory network. This may provide some mechanism to pass that information.
I've set up remote debugging following every step in the manu from
microsoft. However, I can't see mtx.exe process in romote machine,
instead I only see inetinfo.exe. I attached to it and it seem works OK

I start the debugger or in the debugging process.
Can anyone help me what went wrong? or just tell me that is about what

Do I need to do something special to enable asp files to open on my local machine??
I'm not a networking/IT guy, but I was put in charge of figuring out how to use ASP to tap into an Oracle db for my office. I am using a windows 2000 laptop, and I want to be able to run ASP code on my local desktop (without being plugged into a network).
I need a lot of help here. I know I have to turn my computer into a webserver, but I'm not certain what I need to do with the IIS. What do I need to do in general to make my computer a webserver? In addition, I will be using a local Oracle database. So I wasn't sure what I would need to do to make that db available for querying with ASP. What is the best way to make that connection?
Anyone who can point me to useful documentation.

When I test my CMS from my own machine and others, it all works fine.

itself when the form is submitted) and the changes to the database are not
