How To Edit/debug An Existing Classic Asp Web Site Using Vs 2003?
I have an existing classic asp web site running under IIS ( on localhost) I
want to start using VS 2003 to edit/debug this project. How do I go about
opening this this existing web site with VS 2003?
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.
I'm running into some trouble figuring out how to create a 'project' from an existing asp application.
The ASP app was written entirely with plain text editors. I would like to set up debugging for it, but it seems that in order to debug, I must have a 'projec
I cannot figure out how one might go about this task. The project is rather large (180K lines, and a few hundred files in many different sub-dirs), and I have been playing & researching for about 4 hours now, and I can't figure it out.
Can anyone make a suggestion as to what I must do to get something going (preferably vs2003, but I have VID also)
Using VS 2003, how can I open an existing (localhost) website so that all of the website files appear in Solution Explorer the way they do with VS 2005?
I need to debug a COM component written in VB 6. The .DLL is called from asp. All runs well under Windows 2000 (I remember, I had to ad a lot of rights to the user doing the debugging) I just run the dll (F5) in VB, the browser opens the .asp- page where the DLL is called and I see the request in the VB-Debugger. Very nice! It does not run under Windows 2003. Any Ideas? I tried to give the Application pool running the application admin rights. but it does not work. I can not find any errormessage in the event log.
I am using IIS 6.0, VB6 SP6, and Windows Server 2003. The COM are created using VB and being called by some of the ASP pages.
I was tryng to debug the COM in the VB COM project (which is already in debug mode), breakpoints are set at the specific functions. But, I found that the COM component does not jump into the COM project and thus does not stop at the breakpoints I set. FYI, the COM works fine.
I am to build a site onto an ASP server. Anyone here used Dreamweaver and is it just a simple matter of opening up a new ASP page in Dreamweaver and build the site like you would normally do with a HTML page and it will handle the ASP coding accordingly and you can just simply upload it onto an ASP server and it will work?
The site I am to build is basically just a standard html website, but my friend wants me to build it for an ASP server so he has asked me to make sure it is an asp site so I am presuming with the extension .asp
If I build it as a html site to begin with, will converting it to asp be hard. Could I just export my pages into asp or is there more to it?
Can a Html website be loaded and working on an asp server or host?
Is it possible to have a site mixed both html and asp, eg. the home page is html and when you click on shopping cart on the home page it goes to a hopping cart page thats .asp or do they all have to have the same extension.
I typically use a VB com component for handling business logic and data processing in my ASP projects.
In the past, if I wanted to get a forms contents into my VB layer I would simply pass it in the call and accept it in VB as a string which I could put into an xmldom object.
I am now experimenting with passing the entire form along as a form object (to be accessed as such in VB as a ASPTypeLibrary.Request type.
I have found two ways to do this. 1. pass the form as above using the listed request type in VB. This works great. 2. Dim up a ASPTypeLibrary.Request object in VB and assign it GetObjectContext.Item("Request").
Using GetObjectContext is much more difficult to implement if you want to have debugging ability in VB (there are numerous security considerations).
My question is (and thank you for reading this far), do any of you know what the best practices is for a production environment? Can anyone think of any reason why I shouldnt just use the easy method (pass the form and define its type in the argument list for the sub or function)?
I've found that, when debugging scripts on my computer, IE will give me an Error 500 message if something is wrong with the script, whereas IE on my co-worker's actually prints the line and points at the exact character that's amiss, and says what kind of error it is.
This is incredibly useful for someone who is learning like me, but we can't figure out how to make mine work that way (it's the same version on the same OS and everything).
I need to debug the code and get the value of variables in an asp 3.0 page where the javascript is being processed on the server side (i.e. within <% %. I can use Response.Write("window.alert(".etc")"); for text messages to tell me where i am in the code, but I cannot seem to figure out how to display values of the variables...
I just got the programming down for a new site i've been working on. I am curious if anyone out there wants to just browse through the site as a normal customer and tell me if they recieve any errors or problems.. Any suggestions, or critiquing remarks would be helpful. The more people the better! I greatly apprecaite everyone's time.

what could be the setting to do that. I can debug those componnets from another VB/VC++ applications but I want to debug from asp page.
I have to pass form data from my site to another organizations site using POST method... how exactly do I do that? Im familiar with how to do it within a single site/domain, and cant use querystring... I dont know where to begin.
Whenever I do a site that is mostly static but with some semi-dynamic sections, I've struggled to find a good site search solution without paying for a hosted search service.
I like the FSO-based search engines, but they fail to pick up on some of the dynamic part.
I was just creating a Google sitemap and it made me wonder: has anyone created or seen a script that uses the XML Google sitemap to power a search engine for your own site?
Seems like if you were keeping it updated for Google, why not use it for your own site?
I am running an ASP application from within VS .NET 2003. When I run, the files are put in readonly mode, even thought its only an ASP page. Is there a way to edit the ASP (not ASP.NET) page (not in the middle of debugging ofcourse) without quitting debug mode
We have a development iis6.0 server. Multiple programmers are developing independent applications. Non are sitting on the machine they all develop on their own system. Regularly they try to debug and receive the following error.
Error while trying to run project: Unable to start debugging on the web server. A ebugger is already attached. Would you like to disable future attempts to debug ASP.NET pages for this project?Does this mean each developer must run IIS on their own computer?
I am having a problem which thus far only seems to be fixed when I refresh the page. The basic process is as folllows:
1. Select details from the DB and display on screen.
2. Click a link 'Generate Docs'.
3. This then goes to a page which first selects from the DB using information passed through the URL from the above link to identify the correct records. We then create a PDF file based on the data from the DB and display the link to the newly created PDF. The problem, is that at step 3 the PDF does not get generated on the first pass, only if you click the refresh button on the browser.
I have checked all the obvious items, ensuring variables are assigned correctly and called correctly, I have tried implementing a number of 'must revalidate' style tags in both ASP and HTML, I have checked through all of the queries to ensure they are being processed and the data is returned on the first pass and they are and nothing thus far has worked.
i try to debug a simple ASP.NET project on a windows server2003 and i receive a msg that saya's i dont have permissions and to check if i am in a debugger group.
I following the IIS (version 6.0) with the "Manage your server" from the administrative tools. i did the following:
1. make sure that the machine debug manager service running 2. the digest authentication is unCheck 3. add the IUSR_ to the debugger group in the AD (the computer is a domain controller) 4. i gave the user a full control over the wwwroot library
However, I'm running on Windows 2003 and at step 4c) I don't have an "Internet Service Manager" but rather "Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager". OK, fine, I assume the name changed. Code:
i have searched through a ton of past posts in an effort to find the answer to my problem but so far have come up with nothing. The problem I am experiencing is with VS6, visual interdev on windows 2000, with IIS.
When ever i attempt to debug my asp web app the debugger will step into the code and will start an Iexplore.exe process, but not actually make internet explorer visible.
Does anyone know any way round this I have spent loads of time trying to sort it already.
Before I was able to use Microsoft Devleopment Environment to debug my asp code. I did that by going to Microsoft Development Environment 6.0, go to Debug menu -> Processes, and will see inetinfo.exe and then I can attach it. But lately, (and I don't know if it's got anything to do with the fact that I have recently installed Norton Internet Security and Norton Anti Virus) when I opened the Processes window, the list is blank, and the Machine drop down is also empty.
If I hit Properties or Refresh, I'll get the "Development Environment has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience" error, and the app will close. If I hit the Machine button, even if I find the machine, it'll say "Unable to connect to the machine". Has anyone had similar problems before?
