I'm having a problem with cookies in a virtual directory,
A cookie is created by an ASP application in the root folder i.e.
http://xxx.yyy.com
I'm unable to read this cookie in a virtual directory i.e.
https://xxx.yyy.com/mydirectory in a Visual Studio 2005 application.
If I create the cookie in my virtual directory the application in the root directory reads the cookie without any issues.
In php you can have a script like: http://localhost/page/parameter1/parameter2
where page is acually a php script and the script gets the parameters in $PATH_INFO
I need something similar in asp. If possible without modifying any settings on IIS.
Here is a tutorial on how to do it in php. http://www.zend.com/zend/spotlight/searchengine.php
Can a session be good for two different virtual directories under the
same site? They are for internal use only.
Would the session be carried from the virtual directories?
Site one is : http://fs1/review1/
Site two is: http://fs1/review2/
the next is my platform
IIS5
windows 2000
asp vbscript
My working area has the next virtual directoy:
testAc (corrective ambient)
testAe (evolutionary ambient)
testA (official ambient)
testBc (corrective ambient)
testBe (evolutionary ambient)
testB (official ambient)
Every virtual directory above mentioned , has the same content with littles differences but not important for cookies or for the structure of my
applications.
When I enter in my application I set up in my cookies my language and my profile informations.
I set up the cookies with an expires date and I set the cookie value with a response.cookies("lid")=VARLINGUA (VARLINGUA is an application variable that I have recorded in global.asa).
There is a problem with cookies when I open more of the above virtual directory at the same time or when I din't have cleaned my cookies in my temp files.
After my debug I have understood that my cookies are recordered correctly in my temp files (testAc , testBc ,testA etc....) and they contains the right content, but when I try to read my cookie with the request.querystring I read the double content of my cookie(In my case I have found 2 info about language and 2 info about my profile).
It is possible for you that I read the correct cookie but there is also another value in memory.
I think that IIS has problems to read cookies in virtual directory with similar names. I have this doubt because renaming my virtual directories with various(not similar for example testAc I have called Actest, testBe I have called Betest etc...) I do not have more problems.
Config:
IIS 6 Windows 2003
Site_A
Site_B
Scenario:
I need a virtual directory in Site_B to serve the files in Site_A (without redirecting the request) so I just added for example Site_B/A as a vdir, and set it's home dir to the physical root of Site_A (eg. C:inetpubwwwrootSite_A) sounds simple enough... not for long:
Problem (nb. I tend to use forward slashes as web/iis paths and backslash as windows filesystem paths):
The include files in Site_A reside in: Site_Aincludes and the include statements in the ASP code seem to be absolute virtual paths (if such a thing exists) for example: <!--#include virtual="/includes/header.asp"--> Code:
In my Session_OnStart in Global.asa, I am setting some cookies. One
of them, I set as follows:
dim UserID
UserID = Request.ServerVariables("LOGON_USER")
Response.Cookies("User")("ID") = UCASE(UserID)
When I immediately log the cookie value retrieved from
Request.Cookies("User")("ID") into the Windows Event Log, I get the
correct value. However, when I try to retrieve the cookie on the home
page of my application using the same code,
Request.Cookies("User")("ID"), it either cannot find the cookie or
cannot read the value. I am retrieving the cookie before all HTML
headers are written. It is my first statement on the page after
Option Explicit. I have even compared the session IDs. The SessionID
created in the Session_OnStart is the same value as the SessionID on
the home page.
I have read that the Session_OnStart only has access to the
Application, Session and Request objects. It does not explicitly say
that it does not have access to the Response object. Also, I was even
able to use Response.Write's in Global.asa to print out the values
although it looked like it had also stopped the session after I did
so. Cookies are definitely enabled on my machine. I have even tried
setting the session cookie's expiration to be persistent for a few
days to see if it was perhaps expiring before I was able to read it
but this did not work either.
Is there something preventing cookies to be created in Global.asa in
the Session_OnStart sub? Is the Response object not available???
Please let me know if anyone else has had this problem or solution.
Is it possible for a user to enable permanent cookies but disable session cookies.....this seems like a contradition yet this is what I appear to be
reading in online articles?
I m creating a cookies in my application and it work properly but i can't see the cookies where it will sotred i checked the cookies folder but i didn't find that I want to create a cookies file as the other web site create and store where other cookies will stored in Cookies folder or Temprory Internet files folder eg:1. arvind@google.co[1].txt this stored in cookies folder 2. arvind@msn[2].txt ....
View Replies View RelatedI know how to copy files from one location to another but how would I go
about copying a file from one directory into serveral - or actually all
subdirectories in a single action? Some kind of loop
Basically I want to be able to enter a filename into a text field and click
submit which would then copy the named file (which resides in the root
directory) into every subdirectory under the root (1 level only). Would be
helpful to be able to specify mutliple files to be copied at once.
I found this script on the web that I've adapated a little to see the files I put into a directory. However it doesn't see any sub directories. Does anyone have any idea how i can point to a directory and list everything, including the directories? Code:
View Replies View RelatedIt's funny that this has not been invented yet, or has it?:
You store your DB outside your default website.
It is accessed only through your ASP code and a ODBC-connection.
This way your DB is not obtainable for the web user.
Why doesn't Any One create a connection corresponding to ODBC, lets call it
FileConnect that in the same way allows us, in a web site, to have directories
and files that are really hidden?

View Replies View Relatedi have a subdomain on my works server that i use to store different stuff on, like different projects that i'm working on. They are all set up in their own folders, for example, sub.blah.com/project1, sub.blah.com/project2 etc etc. (all the folders have different names).
What i want to do is to create an index page on sub.blah.com that will list out all of the folders. I dont have any access to the server workings so this all has to be done with a script.
My global.asa maintains some stats for me. However when I put part of my site in a sub-directory it appears to run the global.asa file from the sub-directory when I am accessing content in that sub-directory. This makes all the paths specified in global.asa wrong.
I can understand that it runs, since it is application driven and all sub-directories will be part of the same app, but I can't understand it running in a different directory to where is resides.
Is it possible to create a directory in ASP? If possible, how?
View Replies View RelatedI have an include file which contains some images. If I use this include in a sub directory, the path is obveously wrong. How can I sort this problem - is it best to just use absolute paths rather than relative?
View Replies View RelatedI'm creating a site which will have the home page at the root level, but all of the sub pages in sub directories:
root/
-homepage.asp
-subdirectory/
subpage.asp
-images/
logo.gif
-includes/
header.asp
Each page of the site will have the include <!--#include virtual="/includes/header.asp" -->
header.asp is a table with our company logo, logo.gif. The problem I'm having is that subpage.asp does not display logo.gif because the path in the include is only correct at the root level.
I don't want to create multiple includes. Is there another way to make this work that I'm missing? Thanks!
I have several files and directories and I want to read the contents, seperate them into fields and INSERT them into a database.
The structure is as follows:
D:DISCSSC8849SC8849-01 Artistname - title.zip
D:DISCSSC8849SC8849-02 Artistname - title.zip
D:DISCSLG114LG114-01 Artistname - title.zip
I want to read every file in D:DISCS, seperate the filenames into: Disk Number, Track Number, Artist and Title - drop the .zip and the hyphens entirely and insert the data as a record in a database.
I'm including a template on all pages in a site. In the template I have a menu. What I'd like is to have a different menu displayed if I'm in a different directory. Something along the lines of:
If path is /mainsite Then
Regular Menu
If path is /admin Then
Admin Menu
Just not sure about how to go about getting there. My first thought was to use the PATH_INFO server variable, but that returns the page name too. Any suggestions?
Is there any way to setup a multiple password page where if user1 logs in it will take him to dir1 and if user2 logs in it will take him to dir2 and so on. Basically, we need a page that checks to see if the user name and password exists and then redirects accordingly.
View Replies View RelatedI have managed to cobble this together And now I have got stuck with modifying it.
What it does is provide an option box that allows you to choose any of the folders in a directory. The files in that directory are then listed below the option box. (the file structure dictates the order/grouping of the files)
It change the path-to-directory with a manual option. Code:

View Replies View RelatedI have only been developing small sites using asp and Access database. I want to advance my skills and develop a large site. Basically, I need direction in relation to having a user set up an acct., and once set up, being able to upload images. FrontPage (dare I say it) has always enabled me to allow visitors to upload one image at a time, and then only to a specific directory. What I want is the ability to have someone upload a specified amount of images to a directory that is created when they opened their account. ie., /tom/images If anyone knows of of good tutorials on this, I sure would appreciate it. I also want the ability to check images file size and dimesions, and resize or reject if neccessary. Can I learn how to do this w/out buying some program online.
View Replies View RelatedI need to look up what user name was used to login to a protected directory using ASP.
I don't want to create a login page, etc. It shouldn't be necessary. Only employees who already have user accounts need to log in to the webapp and the protected directory login box is all the security I need. I just need to be able to access the username that they used in my application. Code:
I have a client who wants to password protect a learning course that is set up in modules. Each module needs to have it's own password protection so users can only access them as they progress through the course.
Each user should have their own password (for each module) and, said client would like the password to expire for the user at some (predetermined?) point. Is this possible? It seems like a lot (in terms of setup), but I don't know much about password stuff.
If it is possible, can someone give me an overview of how it works (theoretically) or where to find more specific info on setting something like this up (in ASP.net)
If it isn't possible, can someone suggest what is more reasonable in terms of protecting the modules?
I have an Intranet site sitting on an Windows XP server, which has IIS 6.0 installed. This Intranet site contains a virtual directory (VD), which sits on a second server and has Windows 2000 installed.
To test how a virtual directory would work for this particular Intranet site, I had previously set up the VD on the web server. Everything worked well...no errors.
Once testing was complete and the location of the VD changed to the second server, I have been receiving the following error:
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a004c'
Path not found
I understand what this error is saying, but I was wondering if anyone knows of any problems between IIS 6 being on a XP server and the VD on a 2000 server and any possible implications.
Is there a way in asp to create a new default web site within IIS
I am setting a content managament system and want to create a new default web site during on of the processes.
So for example if people create a new site within the admin section and call it Jacinto this will create a new virtual directory called Jacinto.
This would then be accessed at http://localhost/jacinto

My server has POP but only has SMTP if sending to my domain, and not other domains (such as hotmail). I'm therefore wondering, if anyone knows of any scripts etc, that will allow me to have a sort of "virtual" SMTP server on my site?. (I really can't afford to use a third party SMTP mailer).
