I am trying to use asp to download a file located on a different server. I can use ADODB.Stream, LoadFromFile(ServerSomething) and the Response.BinaryWrite successfully, but only if I create an IUSR_XXXX account on the other machine.
What other alternatives do I have, or is this the best method? Could I use a com object that ran as a valid user on the other server to copy the file back to the IIS server?

View Replies View RelatedI am making an ASP page which has to parse some HTML, connect to another web server, and download and store the images locally so that they can be served without hitting the other server.
Does anybody know how to do this? I cannot find any component that will let me download files from another server in ASP. I can parse the HTML and get the image paths, so the problem is limited to connecting to that server and retrieving the images to the local server.
I'm having trouble with my first IIS6.0 on Windows Server 2003.
The web site works fine: all ASP pages are processed and displayed normally. The problem is we are not able to download any files from the site (pdf, zip, doc, ...) When you click on a link pointing to one of these files (or if you write the file's absolute URL in the address bar of IE) you get the normal Open or Save as dialog. Whichever option you choose, the next window is an error message stating that the file cannot be downloaded. The strange part is that everything else is working fine, it is file download what fails, exclusively.
Is this something that needs to be enabled in IIS6.0? Do you know anything about this issue?
I am unable to downlaod entire folder at a time from the server using ASP i.e. all the files and sub-directory in that folder at a time, not by downloading individual files one by one .
View Replies View RelatedDownloaded the sendMail.htm and sendMail.asp sample files
from technet onto my IIS 4.0 server. The first 2-3 times

when the sendMail.asp file should be executing. Why does
sendMail.asp give a "File Download" box instead of just
executing?
I need to have script that automatic download files (open a "save file

View Replies View RelatedCurrently i am doing a file management project where user are able to create folder and upload files to it. The file ownner would be able to set permission (from database linking to the file path) if a user able to download it or not.
*each file info will be stored into a table e.g. fileid, filename, path, access.

i want to be able to write an asp.net function to download files.
For example, brinkster.com hosting service has a COM component that allows a stream of binary data to the client from the server so that the client will be prompted to download the file.
here is the syntax:
Set Upload = Server.CreateObject("Persits.Upload")
Dim SysFilePath
SysFilePath = Request.QueryString("filePath")
' Parmeters:
' 1. Path to file to download
' 2. Yes, build content-xxx headers
' 3. Use this value for Content-Type header
' 4. Include the word "attachment;" to Content-Disposition to force download
Upload.SendBinary "premfs3sitespremium8jaydakissx22webrootmyFile.txt, True, "application/octet-binary", True
How can I do this in asp.net without using the "Persits.Upload" COM object?

how do i create a file download utility that limits the number of users? for example, a maximum of 5 users can download a particular file at the same time.
i can use asp (not asp.net), javascript, maybe read/write a text file if necessary.
if anyone had any script that can allow a page to run some code and then kick off a file download.Maybe like many places do saying download should start automatically or you can "click here".I appologise if this is easy to work out from the source of one of those pages, but my view source seems to have died and I thought an answer from here might be quicker than fixing it!
