I have a dynamic asp page that takes input from a url. IE: parts.asp?sku=543 From there it looks up the sku in a database and outputs the part information. Currently if you put in an invalid sku that is not in my database, you just get a Internal server error.
Whats the correct way to give a 404? Do I just do a Response.Redirect to my 404.asp page if the recordset is empty?

'content here (no error)
end if

I have been trying to find a script on the net that would allow me to handle directory listings through ASP. I'm basically looking to change the default generated pages when browsing directories. Eventually I would love to be able to change which directories/files show based on permissions and be able to allow uploads to current directory listings.

How do i do error handling using asp. Like taking an example i am getting this error on trying to save a record twice whihc has a primary key constraint:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (0x80040E14) [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] The changes you requested to the table were not successful because they would create duplicate values in the index, primary key, or relationship. Change the data in the field or fields that contain duplicate data, remove the index, or redefine the index to permit duplicate entries and try again.

I want to error handling in ASP. But i think that ASP is not enough for error handling. I have got two chance. 1. I can prapare an error page and control throught IIS. 2. I can use on error resume next. For 1. This is a general handling. I want to handle local error. Maybe i do special thing when error occured. For 2. I have to write alot of lines code. I have to control every line.
The numbers represent a predefined access permission to a certain file.

I am using global.asax to handle my web application exceptions and have configured it to create event log entries for errors that occur and to display an error page advising the user to contact the helpdesk. I have an intermittent uninitialised object error that I am not able to reproduce in test and for which I really need the source line number. I believe this information is contained in the PDB but am not sure if one is created if I set the debug="true" flag in the compilation part of the system.web section of the web.config when the application is recompiled.
I have written some code to query a database and create a hyperlink based on a value, however, if the value comprises of more than one word, the hyperlink only references the first part of the value. e.g. For instance, if the value retrieved is "the strokes", the hyperlink will only contain the word "the".

We are interfacing an ASP page with a COM object. In the COM object, if there is a condition that makes it not possible to perform the requested action, an exception is raised that can be caught by the calling application.
When an exception is raised by the COM object during the processing in the ASP page, the processing seems to lock up on the ASP side on the line of the function call that raises the exception.Has anyone else ran into similar issues? If so, how can we work around them?
how i can handle errors on ASP page. Actually i want to maintain a ErrorLog in Database and want to redirect the user on an Error.asp page where i can show him the error details(i-e error #,Description etc).
I have found "With Endwith" method to handle errors but the problem is that i can only write it with a record set and it will handle only record set related errors and also i have to write With EndWith with each recordSet but i want to handle any error on page at a single place.
I'm using a Firebird database to store user comments using my web app that I wrote in ASP. Some fields are mandatory. some are not. Whenever I leave the textareas blank, Firebird stores them as empty text. Anyhoo, the blob fields are subtyped to text 80 segments wide.
I'm using reponse.binarywrite() to output the text into text areas. If there is something in those blob fields, all goes well. But if there isn't anything in the blob fields or I leave a couple of the blob fields blank, the program crashes. So I decided that I want to check if there is something in the blob field, before binarywriting it. I tried comparing it to the string "" and checking to see if it's null but to no avail. Something about a type mismatch error. The exact error message is:
Response object, ASP 0106 (0x80020005) An unhandled data type was encountered. /tracking/updateproject.asp, line 314
line 314 is where I'm binarywriting the blank data.
I have an edit form for records that belong to numerous categories. Records are joined to categories with a join table in a many-to-many relationship.
When displaying a record for editing I loop through the category recordset, looping through the entire join-table recordset for each category, to tick (or not) each checkbox as it's displayed.
This seems like a costly way of populating checkboxes. Is there a more elegant solution?
I have a script that takes gathered customer data, sends it to the gateway (ecommerce site), then takes the response from the gateway and redirects or prints out any errors (invalid CC number, declined etc.). Code:
I have MS Access DB which has a table called [schedule]and in the field [class_id], I have Lec1, Lec3, Tut1, Tut2, and so on.
I need to write VB script which will read the first 3 characters (i.e. Lec or Tut) and the 4th character (number 1 to 8) separately. So, the sample output from the data 'Lec3' in the DB will be something like:
I have an issue with handling concurrent users in asp page. The server is win 2003.
Asp page calls a dll developed in vc++ for displaying reports from oracle database. Application works fine for less than 10 users .but it fails with object cannot be intialized for more users.
I tested the same application in my m/c for load testing it supports 50 users without problem.
Iam wondering any settings at IIS or OS needs to be checked for supporting more users.
I am am using WDDX.Deserializer.1 to parse some XML data to display on an ASP page. Occasionally, I get an error like this:
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01fb' An exception occurred: 'deserialize' /includes/sidebar.asp, line 25
Line 25 is:
set MyRs = MyDeser.deserialize(content)
I would like to set up some error handling so that if this error occurs it will display a custom error message rather than this one. Right now this message occurs near the top of each page on the site, in effect crashing the whole site. How can I test this to see if an error will occur?
I inserted an error handling code for the code bellow. What happen is the page is taking a long time to load. Upon loading it takes me to "page not found" of microsoft internet explorer. How do I solve the problem? Code:
