Locked File Handlers
We had to move a legacy ASP app to an IIS6 server and now the app has stopped working. Basically the offending script opens an image on a network share, rotates the image, and then saves it back to the original filename.
Unfortunately as soon as the script touches the file it seems to lock it and writing the rotated image back to the file fails. After that it becomes impossible to delete the file off the remote server as it is marked as in use by another application.
It doesn't seem to have anything to do with the fact the image is on a share, as the problem happens when I try it with a local file as well. Code:

Every now and then i have an issue with an asp site which results in a server restart. The database is an access database which gets locked to the admin account on the server, is there anyway of recording what is locking the file or a way of preventing it being locked?

I have inserted this piece of code:-
path=server.mappath("../../../databases/") & "/merlin.mdb"
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set f = fso.GetFile(path)
lastmodified=f.DateLastModified
lastmodified=dateAdd ("h",6,lastmodified)
so that I can determine when the user has modified the database. However the problem is that on the server, it works fine, however, on the local server (IIS) on my pc, everything seems to get stuck. Also it locks the databases (.ldb) and I cannot do any amendments on this database, if i don't restart the PC.

I posted a similar problem a while ago but never found a solution. I am passing an integer value (called NoElements)from a html form (which gets created using javascript) to an asp page. The value of NoElements is used to create an asp array of that size. At first I was confronted with the following error:
Expected integer constant
I then was advised to initialise the array (to say 100) and then do a ReDim Preserve. I now get this error message:
This array is fixed or temporarily locked? What should (or at least I thought) be a simple porcedure is making my life a nightmare.

We have an ASP script for updating web content which deploys a whole bunch of files from one server to another on the click of a button. Here are the steps it takes - pretty simple:
1. Delete all files requiring an update from Server B (remote server)
2. Copy all new files from Server A (local) to Server B
The problem is that many of these files are ASP scripts themselves and if someone is browsing the 'live' website on Server B (remote) then IIS will have the current scripts locked. So our delete script runs but gets to a file locked by IIS and fails, having deleted half the site, and does not continue with copying over the new version of the site. Very messy! I have to Remote Access to the server, wait for a gap in usage and manually delete the offending scripts before running the 'Deploy' functionality again.
So, I need to be able to check if a file is locked and ignore it in the process (perhaps reporting on that later) or be able to over-write locked files regardless. Code:

This question has to do with MS file search but it is happening only with
..asp pages, so I though someone programming with .asp pages has experienced
the same situation.
I'm trying to find .asp pages with a certain table name (i.e.
"renewalInfo" )
When I ran the search I get no results. I know that I have that string in a
couple of pages. My file system search engine is working fine with other
file types, like Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, etc.
I tried typing the string outside the <% %> tags and when I do the search I
get the file results, so it seems like if the search engine in my file
system was not searching inside the <%%> tags. Code:

I'm having a problem with the fact that I want to allow image files to be uploaded to a remote web server, as the hosting package the web site is on is IIS6 and has a default file upload size limit of 200kb. As it's a shared hosting package, the default limit cannot be changed for me unfortunately.
Anyway - i need to check the size of the file being uploaded, so i can notify the user and prevent them getting the default Microsoft error message page. The problem is that I can't implement a server side size check which works, using either Request.TotalBytes or load.getFileSize (with "load" being an object of my loader class). It seems that I can't carry out any of these operations when the file size is too large.

I'm trying to run the server.execute command inside a executed file. It doesn't work. Can anybody tell me why? I've searched all around and haven't found a reason. Could it be because it's not supose to work, or is the syntax diferent then in the first file?
It's something like this:
File 1
...
<%Server.Execute("File2.asp")%>
...
File 2
...
<%Server.Execute("file3.asp")%>
...
File 3
<HTML>
<body>
Hello!
</body>
</HTML>
Is this possible?

I have an asp page written entirely in jscript with a vbscript used as an include file which one variable on the page must access.
When the page runs, I run into jscript complilation errors when it tries to access the include file (since it is written in vbscript), and I can't figure out how to get the two to work together. How do you get both scripting languages to work on the same page?

I would like to add a facility to my web page which allows users to upload basic files (word, excel, text, gif, jpg etc) to the server.
I know there's a facility to do this using HMTL forms, but I don't know how to handle the file on the server side.
What I think I need is an ASP file running some code to manipulate the filesystemobject, allowing me to receive the file and store it in the filesystem on the server. It would be nice to access some of the file properties too (name, type etc).
I've seen a few custom components online which allow you to do this, but I can't depend on installing them. I need to be able to script it myself.

Does anyone know of a method of converting text files to sound files (.wav, mp3 etc) which can be accessed from ASP?
I have an ASP-based website that enables users to design choreography for equestrian dressage. The resulting design is held as a series of coded movements in a database and it can then be reproduced as text or as a series of diagrams. I would like to offer the option of an audio version.

I use the following code in an asp.net page to download file from my site to the user:
Response.Buffer = True
Response.Clear()
Response.ContentType = "application/octet-stream"
Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=""" & dsDocFile.Tables("tbl_DocFile").Rows.Find(FileID).Item("FileName") & """")
Response.Flush()
Response.WriteFile(sFileName)
This works with most every file type I've run across (jpg, gif, doc, ppt, xls, etc..). Normally when the user tries to access a file, a download window pops up asking the user whether he/she wants to open or save the file.
However, when the file is a zip file, the user just receives a blank screen instead of the usual download window. Has any one run into this problem? If yes, how did you resolve it?
