Running A Server Side Process From IIS
i have a VB desktop app, that utilizes T SQL to communicate with my backend db.
It sends encrypted data which calls a web page that parses the file and inserts into a table.
I would like to add additional functionality e.g
For my server to be able to do a post the received contents, stored in the database to my sms provider.
I already have implemented a web page script that uses XML to post, web pages, but would like to implement another process for the desktop apps Could this be achieved and how ?

I am attempting to have an asp page call a batch file. I had it working, I was high on life and then I decided to log off the server. Once I did, the code would no longer work. When I logged back onto the server, I saw:
'The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000142). Click on OK to terminate the application.'
Now before I get the usual questions, here is what I have/did: These servers are 'secure' so I'm not so concerned about security. I have the anonymous access account in IIS (server 2003, so IIS6) using a local admin account. I have granted full permission to every user account (IUSR, IWAM, ASPNET, Network Service etc. etc.) to all the
files in the website's dir. I have granted full rights to cmd.exe, wscript.exe.
Now, after stopping/starting IIS about 7000 times and offering up many a prayer to the IIS/ASP gods (who obviously hate me), my ASP code starts to work again. HOWEVER, as soon as I log off, Poof! The script stops working and I need to go through the whole dance routine (which isn't consistent) until the script starts working again. Code:

if it is possible to run a process after page has loaded? reason being is i have an application that uploads a file, then zip's it up. These are 50 megs sometimes, so zipping the file can take some time. It is a two stage process though, a user will upload a file, then fill out some more info, then submit, so while the user is filling out more info, I'd like to start zipping the file. Does anyone know if that is possible? and if so how to do it?

I'm developing an intranet application using W2k server and IE5.5 - 6.x
clients. I've got one particular function that calls a stored procedure to
update a number of records, depending on user input. The problem we have
run into is that this procedure can take a few minutes to complete in
certain circumstances, and of course IIS times out.
I've been doing some searching for a solution, but most of the answers I've
found relate to showing a 'Please wait' message while processing the page,
which doesn't help in this situation. The others I've found relate to using
MSMQ, which would probably help, but leads to a load of testing issues that
I'm not prepared to deal with at the moment.
Are there any other 'common' ways to handle this at the ASP level?

does anyone know of a way to check if a process is running on the server... using asp ? I basically have an html form and upon submittal of the form ... i would like to redirect to the response page when a certain process is no longer running . the logic is as follows Code:
1) user enters form values and clicks submit button
2) server side asp checks the server for a process "wpuba.exe"
3) if "wpuba.exe" is not running .. redirect to page2.asp
basically I want to wait for the "wpuba.exe" process to terminate before redirecting to the response page.

How do I go about calling a server-side vbscript within a client-side
javascript function? What I have is a page heavy on the javascript that has
a number of functions, one of which is to begin a visual countdown with an
onclick and also open an asp page containing the server-side vbscript, which
initiates a wake-on-lan call. I had no idea how to call the vbscript within
the javascript function, so this is why I opted for the vbscript asp page
"pop-up" via window.open. Code:

I have a Client Side Java Script which is supposed to re-load the options on my serverside ASP form.
I have been trying to get the syntax right to assign the Select box on the ASP form to a variable in my JavaScript so I can update the options. Can anyone either tell me if this is not possible or what the syntax should be. Here is some information.
Form Name = AddProdForm
Select Box name = subprodline
JavaScript Variable = form1
Here is one of the many versions of this line I have tried.
var form1=document.forms(""AddProdform"");

I am starting to build quite a few pages that will have
tables of data from an SQL database.
I have been building the table rows on the server side
in VBScript, but I have been thinking about having the
VBScript code just build array variables in the <head>
section (or as local variables), and then have JavaScript
functions on the client side actually populate the tables
when the page loads.
I do plan to do other things like being able to sort the
tables in JavaScript code on the client, limit the tables
height and be able to scroll the rows, and click on a row
in the table, and have the values populate a form. I will
also need to be able to export/download/? some tables into
Excel.

I have this asp screen (not .net just asp) where user can fill in report criteria and then when they hit the "Go" button, at which point the report page will be displayed. Sometimes the reports are quite big and may take 2 to 3 minutes to complete.
If the user realizes he makes a mistake as soon as he gets to the report page, he may hit the "Stop" button and think the server has stopped generating the report, but it's not true. The server is still running the process.
This is particularly more obvious for developers like myself cos I have the server installed on my workstation. When I hit the Stop button and then back to the report filter page and make some changes and then hit the Go again, it'll take 2 to 3 minutes before it'll show the report page this time, as if the server was trying to complete my last report first, before processing my current new request.
Question I have therefore, is, if I'm running a long server process, then how I can get the server to stop this thread (or process?) when the user hits the Stop button, or hits the Back button?

I have a sub routine called when I click on a button. It is inside VBScript tags (client side). Can I do server-side scripting inside that?
<script language="vbscript">
sub cmdButton_Click
code
'can I do this
<% strValid = "Update" %>
End Sub
</script>
Would be nice but don't think it works. Anyone know for sure?

I am having serveral web applications in ASP in my server ( windows 2000 advance server ), sometimes dllhost.exe taking more memory and causes the cpu usages to be 100% and makes the server hangup and causing error like "TNS : listener failed to start a dedicated server process", by the way if i end the process of dllhost.exe manually then the cpu usage will be very less and i wont get such error .
i have the following questions regarding that
1)what causes the dllhost.exe to takes more cpu usage,
2)is there any command from dos to kill such process so that i can create bat file to be run every one minute. i have searched i found only some third party tools and there is command taskkill but it is not for windows 2000 ( it is available only for win xp and windows 2003)

I have just moved a project to my laptop and get the message "Visual Studio..NET has detected that the specified Web server is not running ASP.NET v1.1.You will be unable to run ASP.NET Web applications or services"
Presumably there is a d/l on MSDN to rectify this, but I can't find it. Does anyone know the URL?

My website connects to a remote sql server. Application works fine when I run from Visual Studio. But when I run the site from IIS, it shows an error.
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)

We have enabled ASP in IIS/Web Service Extensions but still nothing.
There is no error msg, scripts just do not run. Are there furthe

Had to re-install the server after initial configuration by someone who left

I have inherited a set of asp pages that I now need to augment. In order to minimize changes to production code, I would like to make a "call" to an asp page from a new asp page. Existing code is using many Request.Form variables, and I would very much prefer not to change this code.
The new page will retrieve data that I would like to fill into Request.Form variables that are used in the old code. So, is it possible for me to set Request.Form variables from within an asp page and then fire off a second page that uses those variables as
well as any Request.Form variables that were passed to the original page. Additionaly, it should all occur on the server, and the client would only get a response after all on the server is complete.

I am having trouble creating a web site on a server running sharepoint services.
I am creating an ASP.Net website using Visual Studio 2005. The server I am trying to create it on is a Windows 2003 server.
From what I understand I need to exclude in sharepoint services the folder where the application will be deployed. I have done this in the Define Managed Paths section of the Sharepoint management site, but it has no effect. Even after I have done this and then attempt to create the ASP.Net website in Visual Studio I get the error message.
"Visual Web Developer does not support opening Sharepoint web sites. See help for more details".
Hence despite excluding the folder, the website still attempts to deploy into Sharepoint Services instead of the IIS. This is backed up by the fact that I can then see the website listed in "Sites and Workspaces" in Sharepoint.
