I am getting the following error from the following code:
Server.MapPath(), ASP 0172 (0x80004005)
The Path parameter for the MapPath method must be a virtual path. A physical path was used.

Is it possible to include my remote web server path eg: m:/html/root/site1
| m:/html/root/site2 etc
....in virtual includes....
Thus eliminating the need to create duplicate INC files in each sub-domain on my remote web server host domain IP. eg: http://72.3.5.6.0 (www.site1.com; www.site2.com)
I would like to be able to use a UNIVERSAL INC file in the root of my web IP for the benefit of all my sub domains.

May i get the physical path of any page hosted on other server?
View Replies View RelatedI have a Physical path that I need to convert on the FLY I thought using Replace would be a good idea, and it almost works
function MapURL(path)
dim url2
'Convert a physical file path to a URL for hypertext links.
url2 = (path)
MapURL = Replace(url2, "", "/")
MapURL = Replace (url2,"E:","http://myscs/docLibraryDocs")
MapURL = Replace (url2, "IntranetLibrary", "")
end function %>
- Is it possible to have multiple replace on the same variable ?
- am I doing it the right way ? or is it possible to concatenate those replace in one go ?
Is there a limit on how many Replace one can use for one variable ?
The problem I have is that it takes the first two Replace in consideration but not the third one. If I remove or comment the second one then the First and the third one works fine. For some reason, it doesn't like to have the three in the same time.
by the way, the link I try to change is as follow: Code:

View Replies View Relatedif you need to place the path to your database, what path do you place when you are having you site hosted by a web hosting company. For example my database is in a folder called "db" and its called "company.mdb"
the path I'm using is: "Data Source=c:dbcompanx.mdb"
but I keep getting a "database can't be found error" what path am I to assume they used. I mean its probably not a "C" drive so what do I place? I tried it without placing the drive but it doesn't work it seems to want only the direct path.
I downloaded the below code to add my project, but I would like to know how can I change the path of my database to /db/forumMDB? , and why ForumMDB instead forum.mdb?

What is the best/common practice when configuring the database path?When the asp application is distributed to customers. How can I facilitate trouble-free installation?. In my applications I use servermappath to determine the position of my files, but databases (Access) are usually stored in different folder structures depending
on the servers.
What is usually done to configure an application?? Ask the administrator/customer to edit global.asa manually? Is there a way to make this task easier for non experienced customers? Is the connect string with the path usually stored in global.asa or in an include file?

I want to put my existing review books webpage in Asp/Database because I have more than 5000 of them and its now too complicated to keep tracks of it all in HTML only. My database is ready, I know how to connect to it, how to list records and how to select in them, I know how to pass a variable from a page to another, I know how to add, modify and delete records... yeah its about that so far.
Here is how I want my website to look like. I want to have physical pages categories, like all the science fiction books should be listed in sf pages separated alphabetically Ex reviews of Lord of the ring will be in sciencefictionT.asp and so on for each categories.

I know that it would be much more easier just to make a review.asp and have the review one at the time there, but I like the way my website is already is, that make it different from others.
I've setup several FTP shares on IIS 5, where some of the shares are
located on another computer, while other directories are on the local
computer.
Is there a function similar to server.mappath that I can use to return
the physical path of a FTP virtual directory using ASP?
For example, I have a virtual directory called TestA located at
C:TestA on the local computer running IIS 5. I have another virtual
directory called TestB located at DevserverTestB where Devserver is
another machine on the network.
In my ASP code, I need to be able to access the physical directories
directly and I would like to avoid having additional code to deal with
hard coded directory paths.
Is there something similar to the command server.mappath("TestB") which
would return "DevserverTestB"? This way, the physical path is
transparent and I can treat local and network shares in the same way.

but now i don't want it saved in the Uploads folder.The folder path i want is ../../../images/models/
how do i modify the above code to this path?
Main folder is "Web". In the "WEB" folder some asp file resides. another folder named "Admin" also reside in the "WEB" folder. My DB resides in the DB folder that is outside of the "WEB" folder and on the same root where "WEB" folder is.
I have a file named Connect.asp which contains the path for DB. I have included this file in both user files (which are simply in web folder) and in the administrator files. But when the admin tries to log-in the file didn't read the appropriate path as it finds the DB in the WEB folder. But it works fine when i communicate with the DB through user files.
I want to write logfiles to a textfile. But when the file doesn't exist, then the file should be created. But the code gives an error at this part of the code. I have no idea of what the mistake could be. Here's the code:

Because I need "myLogin" (the Windows Login), and I can't get with request.ServerVariables("logon_user") or ("author_user") or whatever...
I'm writing an ASP validation script that uses a cookie that is created by a user validation page and has a single value. This site will be used only under Internet Explorer 5 and more recent.
My problem is that the page called after the cookie creation can't read the cookie unless I set the Cookie.Path attribute to "". All the documentation that I found about it is very brief, don't explain how it really works and if there's any kind of "side effects". An even stranger fact is that some people of my team can read the cookie without setting the Cookie.Path attribute.
Can anyone tell me how the Cookie.Path really works or witch browser settings make it needed (or not)?

im having a problem with folder path in include files. I have a solution, but there must be a way better one. The problem is when i have an include file... menu.inc in my root directory root/. This menu.inc references images in the root/images/ folder.
I also have an articles folder root/articles/. The menu.inc is included in files in the articles folder, however this messes up the image paths and files in the articles folder are looking for the images in root/articles/images/.
to combat this, in front of every image reference in my menu.inc file, i have a variable <%= pathVar %>. At the top of every file in the articles folder, i have the command <% pathVar = "../" %>. this will insert a ../ before the images folder in the reference therfore correcting the image reference. In the root folder I use <% pathVar = "" %> , so the <%= pathVar %> amounts to nothing leaving the paths correct.
This works, however means having to switch from HTML to ASP mode for every image in the include file, which is not efficient. Is there a better way around the path problem.
Why it is that to saVE a file an absolute path is required and to read a file or pic an relative path is required.can any one ellaborate it and also diff between relative and absolute path
