Using ASP in a VBScript environment, how can I check the protection on a directory, or a
particular file?

File Protection :: Secure Files On My Server
I need to be able to secure files on my web server. I am using asp to secure access to links and pages, for example:
<%If Session("manager")=FALSE Then%>
You are not authorized to view this page
<%Else%>
<<<Page Code>>>
<%End If%>
The place I'm running into problems is with files. I have a lot of charts and such in PDF version. I kind of doubt there is a way to secure these files with asp, but I thought it would be worth a try.
My biggest issue is that PDFs are stored in the browser's history, so once the page has been accessed, anyone using the browser can get to thatunsecured PDF. As a brute force fix, is there some way to simply erase the site from the browser history? If not, is there a way to secure the PDF, or does someone know of a better group to post on?
File Protection :: Protect Files Or A Folders From Unauthorised Access
is there any way to protect files or a folder from unauthorised access, i.e.when a variable is false?
e.g.
when variable li = 1 then grant access to folder and files within
when variable li <> 1 then deny access
i have a folder with images and word documents i only want people with the variable set to 1 to be able to access them.is there a way?
File System Object - Check If File Is Being Read
I have code that loops through a directory reading files..
now the problem is that files are constantly being uploaded and I only want the file system object to read those that are finished being uploaded.
How can I check the properties of the file to see if it's in middle of being written before i read the file?
File Upload - Need To Check File Size
I'm having a problem with the fact that I want to allow image files to be uploaded to a remote web server, as the hosting package the web site is on is IIS6 and has a default file upload size limit of 200kb. As it's a shared hosting package, the default limit cannot be changed for me unfortunately.
Anyway - i need to check the size of the file being uploaded, so i can notify the user and prevent them getting the default Microsoft error message page. The problem is that I can't implement a server side size check which works, using either Request.TotalBytes or load.getFileSize (with "load" being an object of my loader class). It seems that I can't carry out any of these operations when the file size is too large.
Copying A File Into Another Directory

View Replies View RelatedStoring Images In DB Or File Directory
I am working on a book selling website using ASP with an Access DB.
Basically i would like to have an image of each book in the DB to be displayed upon request in the website. So I guess what i would really like to know is
1. Can i store .jpg or .gif files in an Access DB?
2. Does it make sense to do this?
3. Would it be better to have some kind of pointer in the DB to a place in the file system where the image is stored? .......
Determine Whether A Path Is A Directory Or A File
does any one here know of a good way to to determine whether or not a
given path is a directory (e.g., "c:mydir") or a file (e.g., "c:mydir
myfile.txt")?
i started attacking this problem by using filesystemobject to check
whether or not a directory existed for the path. if so, it was a
directory path. if not, i checked to see if a file existed for it. if
so, it was a file path. Code:
How To Determine If Link Is Directory Or File?
Currently I am developping a internet "directory browser"
My page 'default.asp' has following entries:
CurrentPATH = Request("MyLink")
Set oFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set oFolder = oFSO.GetFolder(CurrentPATH)
Set oFolderContents = oFolder.Files
this works fine with 'default.asp?MyPath', where "MyPath" stands for i.e.
c: emp
but NOT with 'default.asp?MyFile', where MyFile stands for i.e.
c: empfile.txt
Is there a way to determine if the link contains a file or a path? Of course
you can check for a dot (after dot, normaly it is an extension, thus a
file), but I want to have it possible also to have dots in my directories...
Anybody?

View Replies View RelatedDisplaying Latest File In A Directory
I have a folder with eight or ten files that can be displayed in a browser. I need to display the file with the latest creation date. I imagine there is some kind of ASP function that could like at the filename's date and pick the file that meets the criteria. How can I do this?
View Replies View RelatedOpen A File In The Current Directory
Set fileSystem = Server.CreateObject( "Scripting.FileSystemObject" )
Set file = fileSystem.OpenTextFile( "config.xml", 1, False )
It's saying that 'config.xml' doesn't exist. How can I reference this file? It's in the same directory as the file with the above code. Do I need to build the path somehow?
Total File Size Per Directory
I used to have a little ASP file (classical ASP) that would show me the total file size used per directory. I didn't need it for many years and now that I do I seem to have lost it.
Does anyone have an classical ASP file/script that will loop through your filesystem and shows the total Mb's used per directory? I could write it myself I'm sure, but if someone has a script like this ready it would save me quite some time.
Prepending An Asp File To Every Document In A Directory
is there a way in asp that you can prepend a file to the beginning of page you access in a directory? i'm not talking about the include statement because you have to put it in on everypage manually. i know you can do this in cold fusion, but i don't know how to do it in asp or if its even possible.

Check If File Is In Use
Is there a way to make sure that a file is already in use using asp? For instance, if one person has opened a file and is about to write to it; then is there a way to keep another user from reading, or writing to that text file until the first user is finished?

View Replies View RelatedFile Directory Turned Into Include Files
I'm trying to run each file in a directory to be put into an include file line
I can't get anything to work me. Code:

I think it is refering to the fact that I have a file called

This LINE should not contain '..' to indicate the parent directory

Check If File Exist?
I am building and intranet and i need to check if a file exist in a folder on the network. The folders are in the R drive, the web server is on the same network as the other servers. I have tried this code below but I can only check the files on the website.
Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
if fs.fileexists("filename")=true then
Response.Write "Exist"
else
response.write "Doesnt Exist"
end if
set fs = nothing
How To Check If A File Is Empty?
Here is part of my code:
If fs.FileExists(Server.MapPath("filename.htm") Then
set f=fs.OpenTextFile(Server.MapPath("filename.htm"))
If f.ReadLine <> "" Then
First, I check to see if the file exists. If so, then I open the file for reading. Then, I read the first line to see if it equals "".
The problem here, though, is that if the file is empty, I'll get a "Input past end of file" error. So, how do I check to see if it's empty without reading the lines?
Check If File Present
The Codes mentioned below test to see whether the File named Mobile.txt exists or not. Is there any code that tests to see whether any Files (not a particular file) is present in a folder or not?

If MyFileObject.FileExists("C:Mobile.txt") Then
Response.Write("I exist!")
Else

Write To Text File In Password Protected Directory
I have a form mail script that sends an email and then writes to a text file using Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject").
The problem I am having is that the information needs to be saved in a Password Protected Directory. When I try to save the info it gives me a permission denied error.
I had my hosting company change the permission on the directory and the script was working ok but now it isn't.
Is there a way to pass the username and password in the script so I don't have to worry about the hosting company messing this up?
Cannot Open File In Virtual Directory Defined Via Share
I have 2 web servers both running win server 2003 with iis 6.0. On my
PROD server I have a virtual directory called CONV. It points to a
folder on the C drive of this PROD server.
On my TEST server, I defined a virtual directory called CONV. It points
to a share called prodservernameCONV. Note that the share name is
the same name as that of the virtual directory.
Using IIS on the TEST server, I can navigate to this CONV virtual
directory and via right mouse, click EXPLORE. I see all the content I
should but when I try to doubleclick on a file I get a message saying
"Security alert" - "your current security settings do not allow you to
perform system commands on this item".
I've tried everything I can think of on the security settings for the
physical folder on the PROD server. I extended EVERYONE from READ, etc.
to FULL CONTROL. I added the user called INTERACTIVE and gave it full
control. In short, I am stumped and guessing now.
Basically, I just want to avoid duplicating all the data files on my
PROD server over to my TEST server.

The file I'm modifying is too long to post here. It can be downloaded from www.freeASPUpload.net.
I've been trying to insert this code in a number of places in the tester file.
If fso.FileExists(Request.Form("attach1")) then

I've tried many alternatives to "Request.Form("attach1")". Everything from a variable name like "fileName". All of it only creates errors....
Make A Check For File Type
I need to make a check for file type at client end, ie allow only files that are images to be uploaded and prevent the others. I tried using the HtmlInputFile.Accept Property, but it somehow doesn't seem to work.
moreover, it claims to support only few browsers. Also, javascript in itself, gets very dirty, if i start making validations for every thing. Does ASP.NET support any control which can cause these validations? what is the most elegant way to do this?
