I have heard there is something called a 'virtual browser' which allows me
to check asp and html output on the complete range of browsers without
having to download each browser and version (side by side).I did a google
search and see a variety of links but nothing conclusive.
Is there a standard product experienced asp developers are using.can you
point me towards it?What are the limitations and challenges in using this product?
Config:
IIS 6 Windows 2003
Site_A
Site_B
Scenario:
I need a virtual directory in Site_B to serve the files in Site_A (without redirecting the request) so I just added for example Site_B/A as a vdir, and set it's home dir to the physical root of Site_A (eg. C:inetpubwwwrootSite_A) sounds simple enough... not for long:
Problem (nb. I tend to use forward slashes as web/iis paths and backslash as windows filesystem paths):
The include files in Site_A reside in: Site_Aincludes and the include statements in the ASP code seem to be absolute virtual paths (if such a thing exists) for example: <!--#include virtual="/includes/header.asp"--> Code:
I have an Intranet site sitting on an Windows XP server, which has IIS 6.0 installed. This Intranet site contains a virtual directory (VD), which sits on a second server and has Windows 2000 installed.
To test how a virtual directory would work for this particular Intranet site, I had previously set up the VD on the web server. Everything worked well...no errors.
Once testing was complete and the location of the VD changed to the second server, I have been receiving the following error:
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a004c'
Path not found
I understand what this error is saying, but I was wondering if anyone knows of any problems between IIS 6 being on a XP server and the VD on a 2000 server and any possible implications.
Is there a way in asp to create a new default web site within IIS
I am setting a content managament system and want to create a new default web site during on of the processes.
So for example if people create a new site within the admin section and call it Jacinto this will create a new virtual directory called Jacinto.
This would then be accessed at http://localhost/jacinto
Here are a couple of links that describe how to create a virtual directory programmatically on IIS.

Has anybody done it in pure asp.I would like to do it on a site hosted by a third party and I am unable to install any dll's or exe's on the machine because it is a shared webserver.Both .NET and Non .NET would be good
I have a virtual directory set up and it's fine. Now what I want to do is write files into them. When I try to do that it gives me a "path not found" error.How can I do this? Is this even possible?

My server has POP but only has SMTP if sending to my domain, and not other domains (such as hotmail). I'm therefore wondering, if anyone knows of any scripts etc, that will allow me to have a sort of "virtual" SMTP server on my site?. (I really can't afford to use a third party SMTP mailer).

We have aan asp content management system running on IIS6 that produces hundreds of pages from one page template so each page is called mainpage.asp?id=22 and the number at the end changes.
Is there any way of attaching a virtual address to the pages so they could have for example news_story or about-us and control this using a database?
I have a website hosted on an ISP server, my code creates folder and places files in it using the FileSyestemObject. The problem is that I have to write the absolute folder/file path in the createFolder method, and I don't know the absolute path on the server, when i use relative path, the folder is placed on the system32 directory as the root folder (That is where the ASP dll is located). So how can I create folders and files on the virtual directory without knowing the physical path.
View Replies View RelatedI have a page that i find hard to maintain, or add new pages to. It is tha navigation bars down the sides of all the pages. At the moment they are all just like, well a normal page, so when i want to add a new page i need to go through ALL of my pages and change them.
I know there is a way, but i dont know how, to make the asp file call another file and basicaly ask for what goes in the side navigation bar. I have seen this done, it would have used framed, but personaly i think they are evil, you can only stick them to the top, side botton etc.... of a page. And i have made my page so that it is in the centre of the browser.

The problem - when a user adds items to the shopping cart, ***sometimes*** the session variables get reset and all cart information is lost.I can't consistently make the error occur - it seems to be random.Also, if you have any different ideas on how to share code between many websites.

how to put the virtual path in asp
for example
myFSO.CreateFolder("..myNewFolder" & fldr_name)
when i gave this path i am getting error saying "no path found" even though the path is correct.
i placed the <!--#include virtual=... tag outside the <% ASP tags, and when trying to import the file from the same directory db.asp, i get the following error:
The include file 'include/db.asp' was not found.
/eu_softing/sesso.asp, line 1
On one of my asp sites I want to use virtual includes so that it will work the same locally for testing as on the server.
the site is on IIS on WinXP Professional, a folder under the main site. I made it a virtual directory. However if I put:
<!-- #INCLUDE VIRTUAL="/footer.asp"-->
it doesn't work, I still have to put
<!-- #INCLUDE VIRTUAL="/site_folder/footer.asp"-->
how can I make it work like the document root? Is there a URL I should be using as opposed to localhost/site_folder/ ?
If I have 1 Virtual Dirctory with 2 different subfolders are these 2 different folders different virtual folders? Or if I have 2 different Virtual Directories each containing a subfolder are these two subfolders 2 different virtual folders?
I'm asking because Microsoft is using the term "virtual folders" and I am not sure if they mean the former or the later.
This probably seems like a silly question, but is it possible to have more
than 1 ASP.Net project per virtual directory?
The reason I'm wondering this, is because we already have an ASP.Net
web-project written in C#, but need to include some legacy .ASP files written
with (of course) VBScript. It would be easier to convert the legacy .ASP
files into an ASP.Net project w/ VB than C#. But then we would have 2
projects sharing the same virtual directory: one in C# and the other in
VB.Net. Code:
If we have two virtual directories the live and a demo would they both access the same dll (the last one registered)? So if the ‘live’ dll is the last one registered then the asp files running from the demo virtual directory will use the dll that is in the component folder on the ‘live’ virtual directory?
View Replies View RelatedThe following script sets,resets or displays the contents of a cookie.
When I place the script in a directory under the iis root, let's say "mysite" (http://localhost/mysite/tst.asp) it works as expected.
When I create a virtual directory "mysite" and point it to the directory where the script is, the cookie can no longer be set after it has been cleared, even though it is accessed in the same location (http://localhost/mysite/tst.asp)
Anyone know why?

I am an ASP web developer developing a website.I've got ASP files in many sub-folders of many levels deep.
I've always used:
<!-- #INCLUDE VIRTUAL="/VIRTUALSITE/SUBFOLDER1/SUBFOLDER2/FILE.asp" -->
The VIRTUALSITE name is really the virtual directory created under IIS.
I clone my website multiple times, to cater for different people. So, each person gets a different VIRTUALSITE name.This gets messy when I need to update the websites. I can't do a diff/merge because the files of each site had a "search & replace" applied to them to change the VIRTUALSITE name to the corresponding person.Has anyone experienced this problem? Can someone give me some tips/solution on how to resolve this?
I've been told that I can download virtual Terminal for free from Microsoft.com web site.anyone got a link to it? I could find it on their site.
View Replies View RelatedI have been trying to get my intranet web site to automatically display the change password page when the user's password is about to expire. I have configured the IISADMPWD virtual directory according to KB 184058. Reading through the KB articles I could find, I get the idea that there is supposed to be a way for IIS to automatically notify a user when they log in that their password will expire soon, but can't seem to get this to happen. Is there some sort of IIS setting that I need to do in IIS to make this happen or am I just dreaming here?

I've got a scenario with a web application where I must access the virtual directory being accessed from within the Application_OnStart event handler. Specifically, I
have a series of IIS virtual directories which all point to the same set of ASP pages. However, since each virtual directory is a separate 'application', each has its own
set data which must be cached.
To detect which data must be cached for each virtual directory, I need to detect the name of the virtual directoy being invoked from within the Application_OnStart event.
The problem is that the Request.ServerVariables collection is not avaiable within the Application_OnStart event handler. Is there a workaround for this?
