I have tryed my best to understand the asp.net, but the visual of asp.net pages are the most complicated, because on asp we have total control over the layout the page, on the asp.net for example we have a lot of components, like tables wich already have paging, etc.. a lot of code must be rewritten.I am having a lot of dificulties to try converting my asp projects to asp.net... what do you think about this?
I used to code in ASP some years ago, but switched to PHP due to my office´s local server Now, i have a really dumb question that i couldnt get an answer over the internet: I need to code some ASP again, and host it on a server that runs .aspx, will my "three years ago .asp scripts" work in a server that, nowdays, is holding ASP.NET?
I have just moved an ASP Classic website to a new hosting company that has a number of .NET components available. The website works fine after the move with one exception. We were creating PDFs using ASPPDF for ASP but now it looks like only ABCPDF.NET is available. My knowledge of ASP.NET is very limited at this time and I am planning on converting the site to ASP.NET soon but I really need to get the PDF working as soon as I can.
I am trying to add a Visual InterDev project to Visual Source Safe 6d.
Normally I just go up under Project | Source Control | Add to Source Control and I can load the project to VSS but now when I try to add the project to VSS I get the error:
"Cannot establish source control for the Web Application. The server does not have a source control system installed on it, or the user name is not recognized."
I am on a workstation which has VSS installed. VSS is also installed on the web server istself. I atttached to the VSS database as "admin" and under my own user name but I continue to get the same error.
What could be wrong? Perthaps I am using the wrong version of VSS. Is version 6d compataible with Visual InterDev? Or do I need an earlier version?
I am developing on WXP SP1 with VS.Net 2003 and VS6 installed. I cannot get my localhost webserver to render any classic ASP pages. ASP.Net and standard HTML works. If I request an ASP page from localhost the browser hangs for several minutes before just doing nothing. The status bar says the website is found but nothing is ever downloaded. I have verified the mappings in the IIS manager and I have re-registered the ASP.DLL. I am now at a complete loss.
But on IIS 6.0 running on Windows 2003 server we get an error.
"Internet Explorer cannot download <file name>. Interner Explorer was not able to open this Internet site. The site is either unavailable or cannot be found. Please try again later."
After increasing the AspBufferLimit attribute in the metabase.xml, we were able to resolve the issue.
Is there any other way to resolve this without modifying the metabase.xml?
I'm migrating a classic ASP site from IIS 6 to IIS 7 and I'm finding some minor problems that I'm assuming are IIS 7 config related. The problem I'm concerned with right now is that when I run the asp pages, they have lost all their image and CSS links. Functionality is fine (that is I can query the DB, update records, etc) but all graphic features have been lost. how to solve this issue?
I've been working in .NET for some time now and I don't remember specifically how asp classes are cleaned up in classic asp. I've been put on a Classic ASP project(ugh) and we're having some serious stability problems. Once we reach a point of sustained CPU useage of over 80% IIS 6 restarts the w3wp.exe process which of course terminates all sessions and resets the website.
I've noticed that the previous developer has an include which creates a couple of class objects in ASP. Not third party or "CreateObject" objects, but ASP classes. This include is in A LOT of files and the classes not being destroyed in any of them.
My question is could this be the problem? I seem to remember a problem with ASP classes and not destroying them causing leaks of some sort. I need to mention that the memory doesn't seem to be leaking but the CPU utilization goes wacko as if ASP/IIS is corrupt. My environment is Windows 2k3 and IIS 6. The previous environment was Windows 2K and IIS5. Both environments had the problem.
Before I go through these hundreds of files I was wondering if anyone remember what the problem was with ASP classes not being destroyed.
I am using ASP, and I would like to read the country of origin from the HTTP header information of my visitors. I would use this to geotarget different ads to visitors from outside the US.
For other reasons, I don't want to use a solution like GeoIP - I want to do it through ASP code if possible. Has anybody had any experience with this?
I have a system written in classic asp and a lot of Javascript. Due to its performance and security issue, we decided to re-write this big module. I heard that C/C++ has a better support in performance and security (relatively) but here comes my questions: 1. Can ASP talk to C/C++? Because from my experience I use C/C++ mainly for application console. 2. If I want to exclude most of the Javascript and use other programming language instead, can ASP.NET do it? Is there any compatibility issue between Classic ASP/ASP.NET/Javascript?
Does anybody out there consume a web service using classic ASP?If anyone has any useful resources for doing this, I'd love to see them. I haven't found much online at all. Long story but I'd rather not have to learn .net or switch to php for this one project
I'm maintaining an ASP Classic file that has HTML withing Response.Write methods such as <% Response.Write "<table><tr><td>" Response.Write testVariable Response.Write "</td></tr></table>" %>
Would their be a performance hit if I were to write this instead?
What do y'all see for the future of ASP in light of MS decision to replace FrontPage with a new series of development tools? All of them mention ASP.NET, but no mention of the ASP I love. Code:
Has anyone had any success in editing/debuggin classic ASP in Visual Studio 2003?
We have recently received a new project from an outside contractor done in .Net 1.1 and now have VS 2003 installed. We have tried to use it to work with our legacy ASP applications but we are stumped on how to get the debugger to work. It keeps trying to "build" and errors out because it cannot find a sub main().
If you have had any luck with this please either point to a resource that will get us started or share the steps to get this going.
Trying to create a mini-ASP web dev with a couple of PCs at school. When the teachers are happy with the site on the LAN then going to upload it to the school site. Problem is having real problems with the ASP side of things.
Timeline of events is as follows:
1) Added IIS (via Add/Remove Windows Components) on WinXP Pro machine (6 month old Acer to be exact). No problem.
2) Created a folder called asp in the inetpub folder and made it web shareable by right-clicking on it and setting the Web Sharing bit. I usually have read, execute and directory browsing. No problem.
3) Put a text file (with an ext of .asp) in this new asp folder, typed the usual text of <%=now()%and saved it. No problem.
4) Went to http://itpc1/asp and clicked on the new 'test.asp' file. Date and time appears. No problem.
5) Went to my colleague's little office (showing him how to do asp) to make sure his PC can see the web page working OK (both machines are on the same network) and the page displays fine. No problem.
6) Now the reason for this setup is that the PC in his little office is only WinXP Home and the PCs with WinXP pro on are the children's suite, which he can't have sitdown access to all the time. My plan was that I would web share the asp folder AND network share the folder so that he can be dropping files in and doing edits on the asp folder via the network share and then view the results via the http://itpc1/asp web share.
Proceeded to network share (all are setup for simple sharing) the asp folder. No problem.
7) Went into network places on his WinXP Home PC, found the folder no problem, created a shortcut to this folder no problem, he can open up, edit and save changes no problem.
HOWEVER, as soon as he goes back to the http://itpc1/asp page all of the asp files generate an ASP error saying the Invalid Default Script Language.
I go back downstairs and try and get the pages via the main WinXP Pro machine and this now generates the exact same problem.
The long and short of it is, I have to uninstall and then reinstall IIS to fix the problem. Nothing in the IIS settings has been changed. I never touch the default scripting lang setting, which is in fact the right setting of vbscript.
Could somebody please let me know what is happening. Why is the XP Home PC screwing things up when the files are network shared on the WinXP Promachine?
I'm using classic ASP with VBscript and I would like to have a facility for XML object serialization, just like the Serializer object that is available in ASP.NET. Is there such a thing for classic VBscript.
I have scripts on a server that awhile back had new option/server packs installed (to accomodate security and net framework issues) and my classic asp date references "Date()" and "Now" will sometimes flip flop the formatting of the date from 10/3/2003 to 3/10/2003 (european mode).
What would be a good way to use an include file to perhaps an asp.net date object, or where would I find a good reference to using an aspx file to calculate and display the date properly so that I can avoid this flip flop snafu of the date formatting.
Has anyone used the traditional Classic ASP / Access DB / IIS configuration on Vista yet? I haven't, but before I upgrade to Vista I would like to ensure all my websites will work once I do. What version of Vista is best to use (and includes IIS) ? What problems did you have with database connectivity ?
i am working on a project and client just decided to use SQL Reporting Services 2000 for reporting but his application is developed in Classic ASP and SQL Server 2000.
how to view parametrized report in classic asp page and i want these paramters to be sent by URL not in report manually.
Is there a way to use classes written in .NET in an ASP classic application? Maybe similair to using DLLs with Server.CreateObject? I want to write all our new classes using .NET with the intent of eventually changing the web application to ASP.NET.
I've tried Googling for the answer but I only get ASP.NET literature. Any suggestions for that problem?
Want to check the value of an inputbox against a SQL Server database to prevent a duplicate record being entered.
This is an existing project, and the way they implemented it before was to post to a 2nd ASP page, run the ASP code to check the value, then redirect back to the 1st page if the value was found to be "already used".
There has to be a better way. Is it to use "Postback"?
If anyone has experience with Dynu FTP object maybe you could help me out. Hopefully it is a simple solution. I "have" referred to the component documentation and I am still having troubles transferring a file in ascii mode
I am sure I am doing this correctly but I still am getting binary transfer type and not an ascii transfer. Basically a user uploads a file via internet. The file then gets unzipped and the unzipped file is sent to a tandem server. Lastly the zipped and unzipped files are deleted from the user upload point. Code:
I've been record paging with the Recorset object for a while now with 99% success.
When I've set a page length and start page on the recordset the bookmark will start at the proper record, but will not report EOF at the end of that page, so I end up having to KLUDGE it up a bit with a variable that counts out how many records have been processed and exit the loop. I'll toss some code down there to show you what I mean; the KLUDGE is labled KLUDGE with a comment
Is there either a property that I'm not setting properly on the recordset or something that I'm missing that will make the recodset object report EOF as it should or "End of Page" or what ever?
Can I get the codes for uploading a file using classic asp.The problem that I have is that,I want the program to recognize the content type and size of the file and save it in the database table.
