Calling A VBscript From An ASP Page
I am trying to execute some script on my server that is currently run on an ASP page.
However, I am finding that it can often take up to 5-10 minutes to run and the user is not needed for this execution anyway. What I am attempting to do is write the script into a .vbs file on the server and execute the script when necessary.
I would like this script to run without the user knowing and therefore I do not want the asp page to wait for a return from the script. I am trying to use:
Set WshShell = Server.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
ReturnVariable = WshShell.Run("c:connorVBScript1.vbs", 0, FALSE)
The FALSE tells the system to run the code and not wait for a return. The webpage seems to run and returns to the user as it should but the script is not executed.
Anyone have any ideas?

wrt: Server IIS5 and IIS6
There is an application composed of PHP scripts on my server - currenly
works fine.
The site is written is ASP/vbScript. Is there any method I can use to
call the PHP functionality from within my ASP pages?
e.g include or server.execute
Screen scraping works (for some values of 'work') but seems overkill.

I know that this is easy to do, I've done it before, but I can't find how I did it before.Basically, my ASP page can createObject for a compiled DLL, but it can't do
it for the non-compiled DLL (running in VB6).

WE want to call an ASP page that will contain our site navigation html. But call it from pages with .htm extension. Our site is on an NT server. Is this workable? We do not want to rename our existing .htm pages to .asp. This would screw up our page positions on search engines.

is there a way of getting the page that called the current page? Like, I'd like to add a 'back' button that fills some info and then sends to the previous page, which could be one of many pages that can call this current page.
other than adding a form hidden field and passing it at submit or whatnot, is there something like session('callingpage') or something like that?

I have an ASP page that has over 150 records listed. I would like to have an "Index" (A,B,C,D...) at the very top of the page. Once a letter is clicked, I need to:
1) Call a SQL string like "SELECT * from WoD Where UCASE(WotD) LIKE " & UCASE(strSelected) & "*" & Chr(34)
2) Recall the SAME page (Not another ASP page) withpopulating with the new recordset.
I am having a total brain fart on this and can't figure it out.

I wrote a dll and I want to call it from asp page, but I can't do it. I am using the method: server.CreateObject, but can't interface with the dll. I think that my problem is registering the dll to Windows, and when that I am doing it I receive an error message that telling me that "DllRegisterServer may not be exported". what should I do?

i was wondering if i call an activex dll that resides within the same domain, but on a different server from IIS.
there is no problem if its registered on local machine, server.createobject(), i read about MTS and was thinking it could be the solution, but it has a few restrictions or should i say warnings about using components developed without regard to MTS and if the component uses other components...and so on, frankly, im scared to use it.

I am trying to call a field value from my database - which gets open in an included file (all work on database must be done in that included file), if i use response.write(rst("pagename") it would print fine in the page when I call the sub i.e <% call pageNameFind() %>
But i want to get the field value to appear like this <% PageTitle = pagename %> where pagename comes from the included sub pageNameFind pagename = rst("pagename")
It doesn't pick this up however - how would I do this? This value will then be sent on to another included file at later stage. and I must have the <% PageTitle = myvalue %>.

I have 2 sites on my Windows Server 2003/ISA/IIS machine. One of the sites works fine and has 'default.htm' for the default document. The other site returns an 'HTTP error
404' and has a 'default.asp' for the default document. Aside from that they appear to be configured the same.

I'd like to know whether it's possible to call Java classes compiled with the latest Sun JDK from an ASP page? All the documentation I've been able to find on the net has referred to the ancient MS JVM and SDK, and I don't seem to be able to get any of the examples to work, so I'd like some idea of whether or not what I'm trying to accomplish is, in fact, workable.

I created C# COM+ component. It has two overloaded methods - the method names are same and their signatures are different, one takes two parameters and another takes four. I coded this way: the method with 4 parameters is coded first and then the one with 2 parameters.
I created very simple ASP page to call these two methods. Calling the method with 4 params has no problem. However, calling the method with 2 params I get the error saying:
Error Type:
Microsoft VBScript runtime (0x800A0005)
Invalid procedure call or argument: 'SetReferenceValues'
/suitevoyager/testLmx.asp, line 16
How can I solve this problem?

I have a standard Header.asp that I want to include in every other page in
my site. Header.asp is located in the root folder, but the calling pages are
in various folders/levels. Since the relative paths specified in header are
subject to change and are based on the relative path of the calling page,
problems arise. (Strangley, using the IFRAME method of including a header
doesn't react the same way.)
The solution I believe lies in using absolute paths in the Header.asp file
using the "virtual" include qualifier. But this assumes your development
directory structure is the same as your production environment. So I guess
that is the answer. Use absolute paths and set up your development directory
structure to be identical to your production.

We are currently facing a strange problem. We wrote an ASP application using some sessions and database-connectivity, nothing special.
On some machines (we are all using IE5.5 / IE6) those applications produce a 404 error.
The pages that are called do exist (I checked it thousands of times and it is only happens on some machines). Most of the machines have no problem with that pages and do not produce any errors which makes me belive that it is no real programmed problem.
The strange thing is that a reinstallation of IE mostly helped and if not we reinstalled the complete computer (as you can guess this is no real suitable way.
Maybe it has something to do with the sessions we use, but they are not so big.
I hope (not for the one who really has) that somebody has also experienced this kind of problem and can point me into the right direction.
I also tried different IE newsgroups but they had no idea, that's why I now try to ask ASP-programmers.

I have data from page 1 that I want to pass to page 2, either in a querystring or a form. I got that part.
Once I'm on page 2, I can retrieve that data with Response.Form or Reponse.Querystring in the vbscript code I have up in the header, but if I write
Document.Form1.Textbox1.value=response.form("passedData"), nothing happens.
So I thought that the code up in the header doesn't "see" the textbox, because as I dimly understand it, the textbox is client-side and the script is server-side. So then I thought I should put the same line down in the html where the form is defined (enclosed in <% tags). But that triggers an error because the code down there doesn't seem to know what response.form is anymore! I tried using a variable as a go-between, but it didn't change the results.
So how in the world do I get my incoming parameter (whether form or query string) to go and live in a textbox in the target page? I need it there (don't I?) so that I can later pass it along to page three (among other reasons).
In short, I can get strings passed from page 1 to page 2, but then page 2 doesn't seem able to put them into controls or pass them along to page 3.
I have scoured google and forums and seen some responses that involve about 30 lines of code (which I don't understand). Surely it can't be that complicated to pass a string from page 1 to page 2 and then have it available to pass along to page 3.
