Not sure which forum this belongs in, so here it is here as well as in the IIS forum
I am migrating a Windows 2000 Server Web Server with an older version of IIS to a new Windows 2003 Server with IIS 6.0.....Everything is working properly accept web forms which simply send an email via a SMTP service installed in IIS:
this is the code: ....
Is it possible to logon to the SMTP server that comes with IIS from a machine other than the actual server. Ideally I would want to put some VB Script in an SQL Server Job Schedule or an ASP page that uses CDONTS and use it to pull the emails into the database. The SQL Server is on another machine on the network. Is this viable.
View Replies View RelatedI just set up an acct. with godaddy for a shared virtual dedicated server using Windows 2003 and IIS 6. None of my ASP scripts work to send emails using CDONTS. Research took me to how to install the cdonts.dll file and after doing so I don't get the error about not being able to create an ojbect but rather that of permissions on the line that has the .send. Other research led to me believe that windows 2003 does not support cdonts at all? I'd prefer to use CDO but I was told by Godaddy that the script below is not supported on a shared server - Code:
View Replies View RelatedSome one has posted this question on 10th August, as CDONTS is not working
on windows 2003 serever. I have the same problem and I copied CDONTS.DLL
from Windows 2000 Server and registered on Win 2003 server but it giving the
error on line when I calling method send of the object.
Error is
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a0046'
Permission denied
I tried to register CDONTS as COM+ with Admin user right to execute but it
still giving same error.
if I can use CDONTS in W 2003 Server environment to send emails the same way it is used in W2K Server. I have heard that CDONTS is no longer available in W 2003 Server and if so, how can I send emails from ASP page.
View Replies View RelatedI am in the process of transferring several ASP 3.0 websites from NT 4.0 to Windows Server 2003. The latest issue I am having is in converting CDONTS code to CDO code. My email sends fine, but is showing up truncated (approx. 1000 characters). The email is being sent in HTML format with the body string being a long string of concatenated strings. In NT 4.0 this is not a problem, but it appears to be in Win 2003. Have any of you come up against this same issue and if so what did you do to rectify it?

I am working on a listing for sending emails via CDONTS component...
I have installed SMTP service on my machine and tried running the sample code....No errors appear, yet no mail is sent in the long run...All necessary services are up and running (IIS Admin, WWW and SMTP).
Another thing is that i have checked to see if Default SMTP Virtual Server is listed under the Internet Services Manager pane tree, but nothing seems to be there except Default FTP Site and Default Web Site....
The question might seem silly but...do i have to have a Mail Server installed.....?
How can i determine the cause that prevents the mail from being sent...Logs don't help much....Is there a way to detect the actual presence of the component...?
I'm having problems getting the virtual SMTP server (in IIS) from
sending an email message that was created from an ASP script. The messages
are stored in the InetspbmailrootQueue directory but the computer isn't
sending these messages to the Internet.
I get the permission denied error, so I know its a permissions problem on the mailroot folder.
My question is then, if my site is being hosted, would it matter what the permissions
of the folder on my local computer are? Or would I have to call my host and ask him to make the appropriate permission changes?
And if you could tell me what exactly I need to ask/tell the host, if that is the case,
so that I don't have to call a million times.
Our network administrator does not want to install the IIS SMTP server on
our intranet. He wants me to use our existing SMTP server
"mail.smpi.siemens.ca". Can I do this with IIS?? Is this a setting in an
ASP if I'm not running the IIS SMTP server?
We are running on Windows 2000 SP4 with IIS5.
I wrote a simple asp script that'll send an email to myself. Unfortunately, all the emails are stuck in the smtp queue. This happens when I try and send an email to addresses in our company domain. If I send to yahoo, gmail or anywhere else I do not have any issues..
View Replies View RelatedI have a very rare error with one of our Windows 2003 server. We have some componentes COM wich ones use the CDONTS in order to send mails. Well, one of our server get the follow error when we try to send the mail.
error '80004005'
Method '~' of object '~' failed
I know it's possible to have CDONTS over Windows 2003, and this article confirms it:
http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/WindowsServ/2003/all/deployguide/en-us/Default.asp?url=/resources/documentation/WindowsServ/2003/all/deployguide/en-us/iisdg_dep_tnoc.asp
I have registered the cdonts.dll as the article dictates but I really don't know what can be happening with that server.. and I really appreciate any kind of help because that is one of our QA servers.
I have Road Runner cable internet access and Im working in a local development environment (writing .ASP) and have a site running on my network on a windows xp pro machine via IIS with CDONTS installed.
When I try to send a confirmation email (simple text) via CDONTS the message is built but remains on the server in the QUEUE folder ... how can I tweak the SMTP settings on the server to allow me to send email out from the server...
just the occassional test as I develop sites - not looking to spam and have a fairly full featured router to block external access to SMTP machine so its not abused.
I want to send e-mails from my asp pages but don't know how to achieve that. I have tried to create CDO/CDONTS server objects but without luck. I guess I don't have SMTP installed or not configured appropriately.
Can you help me here? What do I need to do (and if complicated how is it done) to get an SMTP server up an running?
Another newbie's questions
How do I find my STMP server ( I need it to use AspSmartMail)?
My web site is being hosted on a .com , do I have to ask them? Or can I find it by myself.
anyone know if this is possible? I need to specify a different one than the default.
View Replies View RelatedMy window server is going to be upgraded from Win NT 4.0 Server to Win 2003 Server. I don't know if I can put an ASP web application on this new server without any problem. I guess ASP.NET would be better but right now I just have a classic ASP. Can you help me about this? Or any article about this issue would be greatly appreciated.
View Replies View RelatedAnyone has ideas how to send an email through ASP without having an SMTP server? I'm currently building a website which needs emails to be sent when users submits a form, however the web space provider doesn't not have an SMTP server. I'm now using CDO on my local testing server (with SMTP installed) and it works, but I just don't know how to get it working after uploading it because the remote server hasn't got SMTP on it.
View Replies View Related1. I wonder, why do I need to add the following lines when sending forms through mail, using CDO component?
2. If I remove these lines and the form is still submitted as it should, and I get the mail as a result as it should, does it mean I do not need these lines?
3. In other words - How do I know if an SMTP service is installed on the local server, and not in another network (besides asking the admin)? Code:
I have no knowledge of Exchange server, and have always used CDO to send emails from ASP in the past. the server in question doesn't have SMTP installed alongside IIS, it has Exchange installed which apparantly does have SMTP capabilities but not like the default ones normally accessbile via IIS.
Has anyone ever used this approach to sending emails? I'm hoping that I dont need a component or anything else, just some changes to my existing email code.
Is it possible to set up server-side mail services such that when someone
e-mails to a certain address, the contents attached to that mail are
processed and the processed content is returned to the user, again, as an
attachment?I installed a server-side component for managing graphics. "Wouldn't it be
nice," thought I, "if untutored staff could email graphics to a certain
e-mail address to have them resized and returned to them.")
I understand how to handle the graphics processing and the sending. I don't
understand how to set things up so that e-mailing to a certain address will
trigger the start of an application. Ideally you could do this all within
ASP. Is this possible?
I have an application which sends emails. Currently we use the mailenable web server.
If an email is not sent successfully then we want to update the email address in our database as unreacheable automatically.
In other words we want a mail server that when it gives up sending an email will do an http post, or will somehow communicate with our software so that we can update our database. if ther is a mailserver which will do this?
I made some of the web pages using ASP on windows 2000 server, now i wanto to upgrade my Operating system from windows 2000 server to Windows 2003 Server , Are my web pages will work fine if i do this upgradation or there are any configurations on IIS i have to make to work fine ....
View Replies View RelatedI just migrated an NT4.0 website (all ASP) to Windows Server 2003 (small business server - deluxe edition) and some pages are very slow to render on client.
Seems to be pages with tables. I can stop the browser by clicking "X" and the table will be partly rendered. The table only has 26 rows and very little content.
Any ideas why this is happening would be appreciated. I have read of others with the same problem but no solutions.
I have two servers, both running windows 2003 and both containing the exact same roperties for IIS.I have a set of asp intranet pages that are located inside the
c:inetpubwwwroot est folder.On one of the servers, the asp pages run fine, however on the second server the asp files are not recognised as asp pages. If you double click them, windows pops up a message box stating "Windows cannot open this file".
If I try to view an asp page via the browser, I get page not found.I have IIS installed, and under Web Service Extensions I have allowed every item that can be set.Does anyone know why windows cannot make an association with the asp page?
Just migrating from server 2000 to 2003. cdo was working fine on 2000 but on 2003 I get...

The code creating the cdo object in in asp/vbs.
I've had a new server installed for me. with Windows 2003 and II6 with ASP.NET. but I want to run a small (but important) application written in ASP(all .ASP files)
as it stands the server will not 'understand' .ASP files (only .ASPx)To avoid having to modify the whole application ( :-} ) can I get the server to execute. ASP files?(is it as simple as copying over an existing II4 ASP.DLL and installing that?
We have several extensive sites and all use a lot of include files. We have the coded as include file and virtual include using ../ since it is a shared server etc. The sites were moved by the hosting company to a new windows 2003 server and now we get invalid path error part of the time, others it works fine.
The host says it is our programmers did not follow asp procedures and used ../ I always thought this was ok, it was never an issue before the move...is this new to windows 2003.
When I upgraded to Server 2003, I get this error now in my asp script which
is saving a form to an asp database. Do I need to do something different
now? I have used FP to design my forms, and to do my data results pages. I
am now using sharepoint services also which I was not using previously.
The Include file '../_fpclass/fpdbform.inc' cannot contain '..' to indicate
the parent directory.
My question is do ASP need to declare smtp server when send email using CDonts function?

View Replies View RelatedIt works properly in my former webserver until it was upgraded to Win2003. Please do the amendments below.
My code:
We have just set up a Windows Server 2003 x64 system for the purposes of being a dedicated web server/media streaming server. Up to this point, we have been using Windows Server 2003 x86 environment and everything is running well.
I have migrated the IIS settings over to the new server and all appears to be going well when tested except that I have now lost all DB connectivity to the 3 small Access databases that I have in the server. All permissions and set ups are the same.
Based on past experience, I thought that it had to do with my Jet 4.0 drivers not being up to date, but a check of those against that on the service pack 8 indicates that my versions are the same as those in that Service pack...but to be sure,
I downloaded the x64 version of the software and the install says that while the version is valid, it is not for the correct machine type ???? So I downloaded the x86 software, and that also did not work (of course). I then checked my Jet 4.0 drivers on my x86 machine...and they are OLDER than the ones on my x64 machine...I am totally confused and do not understand...
Here is the code that I use to call the databases:
strConnString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=e:Star Thrower Websiteforum.mdb"
