Can you use session variables between a HTTP server and a HTTPS server? I need to use data from a form from the HTTP on the HTTPS but it doesnt seem to be working? If I cant what is the best way do reuse form data?
View RepliesWhat type of servers allow you to use ASP pages? For example, PHP pages
can function in Apache.
Furthermore, what kind of servers allow you to operate ASP and Access
together?
I have many servers which will be reghosted everyday with different OS
(Win2000, Win2003, WinXP...). How could I write the ASP code to get the
information of other servers' OS?
Let say the asp page is hosted on Server A, how can I check the OS version
of Server B and Server C?
We have a web site where the user logs in and a session variable is set,
which allows access to all pages via an include at the top of every page (
if session("LoggedInOK")<>"Yes" etc)
We have some content on another unrelated server in a different domain that
we would like automatic access to, if the login is OK for site 1, without
re-entering a login. Even better would be if some other session variable
data could be transferred at the same time (like username). Navigation would
be via hyperlinks on site 1. Is there a simple way to do this? i.e. has this
wheel already been invented? (Encrypted querystrings? XMLHTTP?)
If my server runs on Linux and I want to use an ASP script and files on it. When I upload the files, wehn I go to the file directory and click on the file it asks me the same as what it asks me if I try to open it at home.How can I overcome this?
View Replies View RelatedI have built a site completely with ASP.I am searching for free web host which works with ASP.give me a list web links of fre asp hosters.and i have used drive letters to access my database, how can i remove those drive letters (ex. "c:m.mdb").

View Replies View RelatedI have a need to have a web server (windows based) grab files each week from
a linux based server - hosted elsewhere. I cannot use UNC paths.
I want to have a script (.asp/asp.net) on the windows server that I would
provide a list of files to copy. The script would then copy the listed files.
The problem is that the using a filestream and copyto runs into an error
with URI paths.
This will be a substantial amount of data each week. I don't want to copy
it locally and then back up to the windows web server. I want/need the copy
to be directly between the two servers.
Does anyone knows of a way to copy some file fro the server to another computer WITHOUT using ftp?
View Replies View RelatedOur website works correctly for 99.9% of customers, however we have one set
of customers who access our website from what appears to be a proxy server
of some kind. i.e. The IP address is always the same no matter where the
location of the computer is.
My site is a framed site, and the specific problem is that a list of links
in one frame will not load a page on another frame. I don't believe this is
a browser compatibily problem. (I wont rule it out though). But there are no
problems as far as I can tell on other peoples computers.
My question is....Is there anything special that needs to be done to make
sure a site works through proxy servers, or is this likly to be some other
problem such as an SSL problem (the whole site is under ssl), browser
incompatibility problem, or just downright dodgy programing on my behalf?
Here's the question: Can you use request.form to retrieve variables and values from a form submitted on a foreign server using the post method?
My understanding was that request.form could only retrieve values from the same web server the form was submitted to, using the post method.
I have another web master telling me this is how you pass information securely between "alien" web servers (web servers on different domains, or belonging to different organizations). For the life of me, I can't figure out how this might be done--or what the mechanism is for fetching the correct values from a foreign server!
In the following code when i = 500 the buffer on the server is flushed
to the client. However, because the content that is sent to the browser
contains an html table Internet Explorer does not display the table
until it receives the closing </table> tag.
The question is, am I
correct in saying that the buffer on the server is CLEARED when i =
500? It will be empty for a split second until the loop resumes again.
Am I correct? Code:
At work we have 2 servers in a cluster for our web apps.One problem we have experienced (along with many others!) - is that if a user is logged into one of the applications on server a for example and it goes offline or fails their session is lost also - even though the application becomes available on server b.
I have heard that it is possible to either exchange the sessions between clustered servers or store them in a SQL Server database (probably preferred) so that we could then restore them if such a failure should occur.Can anyone shed any light on this for me? Or give me some URL's to check out and read.Sorry this isn't a 100% pure IIS question - its obviously partly ASP also.
Let me explain how our web site in constructed before getting to my question. We have three web servers that are a mirror of each other. So whenever I make a change to one of our pages, I have to upload to all three servers. My new task (and its a good one) is to create an image upload script that will distribute the file to all three servers.
I already have an upload script that works just fine, however I wanted to see if anyone out there has attempted anything similar to this and what methods they used to achieve their goal.
Does anyone know of any free POP3 email servers that would work with ASP pages?
I am running win2000 and have given up on getting my SMTP server to work.
I have a .asp application lying out on a Windows 2000 server. The problem is it no longer is working. It seems that no .asp files will execute anylonger on this box. I even have a very basic .asp testfile that prints a line off text to the browser, but even these don't run. I got four errors in the event log for each failure. However, the browser displays this (with friendly error messages et to "off"):
Server Application Error
The server has encountered an error while loading an application during the processing of your request. Please refer to the event log for more detail information. Please contact the server administrator for assistance.
The event log errors are :
A COM+ device failed to start
Did not register with DCOM within the timeout.
I stumbled upon a site last night that said I can maintain a session variable between 2 servers.
I tried it out between 2 servers and it worked fine. However, I forgot the URL and have deleted the pages.... idiot!
Does anyone know what I am talking about, if so, please could you point me in the right direction.
We are planning to set-up a load balanced web environment. Accordingly, we are going to change the session management on our website from the classic ASP Session State and session variables, to a database method.
Does any one have any pointers as to how I might approach this, so that I can have the same sort of functionality the ASP sessions give without having to create database columns for each session variable I wish to create. I am thinking along the lines of some serialised dictionary or something that I can stick in a blob column.
I am building an web application that will be hosted on load balanced servers
(multiple front and one backen db). The application will have to allow users
to upload files onto the server. For performance reasons, I do not want to
store binary files in the db (cuz there will be frequently retrieved and
stored and many will be within the range of 10 MB - powerpoint slides and pdf
files) so uploaded files will have to stay on the front end web server.
The problem with this approach is that there will have to be some mechanism that
replicates the files automatically among the front end servers. Can someone
shed some light on what the best apporach is to my problem? I am wondering
whether Windows 2000 has such service available to do file replication (if
so, how?)
I'm trying to figure out a quick script that will let me link to a server share where the server could be 1 of a couple of different ones. The share will always be the same, but the server could be any of a list of maybe 5 or so choices as such:
server1share$
server2share$
server3share$
I'd basically like the script to check the different servers until it finds the one where the share exists, then redirect to it. The share will only exist on one server, but which one it is will change.
Can someone explain to me how you set a session and how you check the session?

I have session time by default as 20 mints in iis.
I want to that to be increased by 60 mints in my application so that when user save changes after 21st mint the session should not be lost.
Can this be happen without changing the default time in iis since i have many other applications.
Any one know how to end all the session in asp application. Is there any other directive rather than '#include' to include a file in our Asp page.
View Replies View RelatedI was wanting to know if you could have a function within a session?Example:
Code:
<% Session("Message") = MyFunction() %>
Is that possible? Ok, maybe not "is it possible" but can you use the session message to dictate where the function outputs its data? Here's why I'm asking. I have an online testing app that when a person selects the wrong answer the correct answer (along with a bunch of other stuff) will be displayed on the page.
I'm getting it to display the correct answer and the other information, but the correct answer is at the top of the page screwing up my layout and the other information is doing what it should.
I am using an HTTPS connection and posting to an asp page that does a
redirect based on if the user is authenticated.
However, for some reason after the session is set and the user redirect
the session dies and the user logged out?
Any ideas?
The redirect looks like Response.Redirect "../welcome.asp".
I am using ServerXmlHttp in a client-side component to basically talk back to the Server within a webpage. I would like to be able to cache some information on the server so that when I callback, I do not have to reconstitue everything that I did for the intial request. However, the Sessions are different.
Is there a way to get the ServerXmlHttp session to impersonate the IE client session? Code:

View Replies View RelatedI'm trying to use a couple of Session variables within SSL.
My form submits to the same page and this is at the top of the page.
<%

The form fields are populated but the Sessions are empty on my next page.
Am I missing something? Is there a problem with Sessions and SSL?
I've just created a simple form that writes information to an
Access database using ASP. Everything works fine. My question is, would
there be any reason to use the session object other than for tracking
purposes.
Specifically, does a session have any inportance on multiple
users accessing pages and submitting the form inforamtion to the database.
I was curious about errors to the database with multiple users submitting at
the same time to the database. This is a small scale application and not
expected to have large number of hits. As stated I'm new to using ASP and
just wanted to get some input.
I have used SESSIONS on mission critical pages on my site, and if sessions are not enabled / supoorted - these pages will fail. When and why would a session fail? They do not store any info client side,and rely on the server to store session objects in memory, am I correct? Would security settings or privacy controls ever stop sessions working? Which "popular" browsers dont support sessions?
View Replies View RelatedAre sessions stored on the server or the visitors PC?
View Replies View RelatedI don't know how to do anything with session and I don't need anything complicated at all. All i need it to do is like create a session when they login sucessfully.
