MapPath Invalid Character Error
I'm trying to use MapPath on a folder named with a comma in it:
xmldoc.load Server.MapPath(Request.QueryString("fname"))
where the querysting is something like "fname=this, that/this, that.xml".
I'm sure it's the comma, because if I remove it and rename the file and folder, everything works. I believe that a comma is a valid character in a folder or filename,
so why does MapPath barf on it? Is there any way around this still using MapPath? Can someone point me to a source with a list of the valid characters the MapPath accepts?

Let me start by saying I'm fairly new to Asp coding. That said...
My ISP only uses AspSmartMail. I've created an online form that uses fill out, which is then e-mailed to the collector of the information and CC-ed to the person who submitted the information.
The error I'm receiving is this:
aspSmartMail.SendMail : Error 28 error '8004001a'
504 Invalid Username or Password
In my script, I've Dimensioned several items, as you'll see below, passing the authenticating username/password to the smtp server, but it's not working. I tried not passing the information by entering in the actual info without it being passed by the diminsioned items. This didn't work either. I of course verified that the username/password I'm usine is correct.
Can someone plase tell me why I can't authenicate? I would really appreciate any help that might be out there.
Relavant Asp code below:
-----------------------------------------
Dim smtpserver,youremail,yourpassword,yourusername,rem oteemail
'Edit these 3 values accordingly
smtpserver = "mail.smtp_server.org"
youremail = "yourname@smtp_server.org"
yourpassword = "password"
yourusername = "yourusername"
remoteemail = "email_address_to_send_to"
Dim ObjSendMail
Set ObjSendMail = Server.CreateObject("AspSmartMail.SmartMail")
'Config remote SMTP server info.
ObjSendMail.Server = smtpserver
ObjSendMail.ServerTimeOut = 35
ObjSendMail.SenderAddress = youremail
ObjSendMail.Password = yourpassword
ObjSendMail.Username = yourusername
'End remote SMTP server config.
'Config E-mail.
ObjSendMail.Recipients.Add remoteemail
ObjSendMail.CCs.Add Request.Form("Confirm_Email")
ObjSendMail.Subject = "Email Subject"
ObjSendMail.SenderAddress = "Confirmation-NoReply@smtp_server.org"
ObjSendMail.SenderName = "SenderName"
ObjSendMail.ContentType = "text/html"
ObjSendMail.Body = strBody
'Note - strBody is Dimensioned elsewhere in my script to build the HTML message body.
'End Config E-mail.
'ObjSendMail.Send
ObjSendMail.SendMail
if err.number <> 0 then
response.write("Error n° " & err.number - vbobjecterror & " = " & err.description & "<br>")
else
Response.Write "aspSmartMail has sent your message with this file as attachment : <br>"
'Response.Write ObjSendMail.Attachments.Item(1).FilePathName
end if
Set ObjSendMail = Nothing
---------------------------------------
End code

I just took up the task of learning ASP, done all the hello world stuff and then thought about the DB side of things and thought that a login system would be a nice place to start, so naturally I started with the registration page, and asp page to do the actual DB stuff, but it would seem I have a prob with Server.MapPath. So I edited my Register page to test and sure enough it doesn’t work, but it works when I make a page with just a .Write of the Server.MapPath Code:

Server.mappath always returns an absolute disk path to a file, regardless of if you pass a web path that starts from the root of the web or relative to the current directory.
chazukka's example will work fine as long as the script is executed from a page that's in the proper directory, i.e., a page that has subdirectory named database and the mdb file is in that subdirectory.
For example, assuming you're running /myweb/somewhere/myfolder/myasp.asp in a directory /myweb/somewhere/myfolder and the database file is in /myweb/somewhere/myfolder/database/mydb.mdb then
diskp1 = server.mappath("database/mydb.mdb")
diskp2 = server.mappath("/myweb/somewhere/myfolder/database/mydb.mdb")
diskp1 and diskp2 will have identical contents

I seem to be getting this error, and after Googling and searching this site, I still can't get a grip on it. I have a site on a server which is being developed for a national company who will offer this site to their members, hosting each on the national orgainzations servers. I have this string -
openStr = "driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};" & _
"dbq=" & Server.MapPath("../databases/srt.mdb")
Which results in this error:
The '..' characters are not allowed in the Path parameter for the MapPath method
Ok, the common solution seems to be a configuration on the server, which wouldn't be a problem IF the site was to remain where it is. BUT, seeing as I will give this site to the client, who will host it on their servers, could this configuration "fix" be a problem, perhaps for security issues.

When I load the page this is the error I get and I don't know why is this appearing,why wouldn't it like a new column, it has been added in the table on the server.
This occurs in my select statement.

I have a page (Page 1) that allows users to select several search criteria. These criteria are then passed via the URL to another page (Page 2) that runs a query and displays the result. I keep getting an 'invalid number' error and I need help fixing it.
To save space I'm only including the query. I created and set up a connection object and a recordset object (rs).
Users may select multiple Project_ID's from Page 1, they are passed in the URL as Project_ID, Project_ID, etc. Code:

I am facing a problem with MAPI.SESSION for server.createobject in a ASP page. I am getting a message as "Invalid class string". I checked up the registry and found no entry for the same. So I used regsvr32 and registered the cdonts.dll file. But even then there is no entry in the registry and I am getting the same error in the asp script.

I am trying to utilise xmlhttp for my website. I have been told that it is on the server (don't have access to the actual server so far as installing components etc.).
But I keep getting an 'Invalid Class String' error.
Is there a way to list out the valid class strings or list the components on a server from a normal asp page (so I can see what is/isn't available).
What are the different alternatives to the line...
[VBS] Set xml = Server.CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP")[/VBS]
that may be substituted depending on the version of it? Or is there another alternative to xmlhttp that will provide me with the source of a page on another server that may already be installed...?

I have an ASP page that loops through a SQL Server 2000 table, then
downloads an Excel sheet the users can save, etc. Works fine, except, I
see that in one particular "comments" field the Excel sheet returns a
#VALUE! error in the cell when there is a large amount of text. I've
looked through the MSKB, MSDN and many ng posts to see if there is a
workaround or solution to this, including looking at the xlWorksheet
properties. Is there a limitation of 255 chars that can be tranferred?
When I copy and paste the text it copies into the cell fine.

I have been modifying a forum I found on the web for a web site I am developing. Everythiing has been going great (www.tastytuscany.com/forum) until I yesterday when I hit a brick wall. There seesm to be an issue with the email functionality. The author wrote a "send_email" function that I just can't figure out why I keep getting this error:
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a0005'
Invalid procedure call or argument
/forum/admin/functions/functions_send_mail.asp, line 158
In the script for the email function, here is an excerpt of the code (he uses a select statement for various email types...) and a call to the function from a page. Might I just modify that include file with my own CDONT script? I use cdonts on other pages in the site just fine? BUT, I would really like to get this to work.. Code:

I'm passing a unique identifier from page1 to page2 to page3 querried from MS SQL Server. When I pass the value, it puts the value in the curly brackets. (Page1 is for display and Page2 is for edit and Page3 is update edit)
When I go to Page3, it gives me an error saying "Syntax error converting from a character string to uniqueidentifier" {7171B9BD-4599-43D9-9521-3DA583A1BB1A} This is the value and the error page says "id=%7B7171B9BD-4599-43D9-9521-3DA583A1BB1A%7D" It seems tp put "%7B" and "%7D" for "{" and "}". Has anyone seen this?
I'm also passing numbers and text and they don't seem to have this problem, just the unique key.
