I am pretty proficient in the use of the File System Object to create and access files on the server - but can someone please tell me how to DELETE these files.I must be missing something pretty basic.
How would I get an ASP page to delete an image file, probably a .jpg off the server.
Basically, what I want to do, is that when the user deletes a product item from the database, it will also delete the corresponding image file from the images folder. So that the server space doesn't just fill up with redundant image files over time.
If it makes any difference the image files are uploaded using a PHP script, I've no idea how it works, but it does.
I have a Product and that product contains some documents.The documents are uploaded to server and can be viewed in my asp application.
In admin module i have given option to edit or delete that product.In the event of edit just the records in the database get changed.But in the case of delete i have to do 2 things
1. Delete all the data related to that product. 2. Delete all the related documents for that product in the server.
So can anybody help me figure out how to delete a file using asp in ftp server.
How can I delete the files using ASP?Following is th code :
var objFso = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") var strFileName = Server.MapPath(".") + ""+ "SubmittedDoc.xml" if (objFso.FileExists(strFileName)) objFso.DeleteFile(strFileName)
i'm using the following code to delete a file but when i execute the script it just freezes until timeout. any idea of the problem?
'///DELETE ORGINAL FILE Dim objFSO Set objFSO = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") objFSO.DeleteFile "C:Documents and SettingsGavMy DocumentsDateWebsitewwwuser_images" & filename Set objFSO = Nothing
I have developed an com+ email component.It's supposed to send files as attachments and then to delete those files(which are temporarily stored in a folder).The code for uploading files is: Code:
im just wondering how can i delete a file (mainly pictures) from asp pages and is there any extra permissions more than read & write permissions i need to set for this operation ?
Is it possible after i run my process i delete text files from server. I run a process to read from text files after that i want to delete these text files so that no one again run the process.I am using ASP.
Could anybody show me an example of code to upload files from a local drive, and delete files from the website. of course the easiest way to do that is to use any FTP client.
I understand how to delete files within a directory using the Scripting.FileSystemObject. However, how can I delete a directory using ASP 2.0 on an older IIS 4.0 server? Do I need to:
1. Delete all the files within the directory. 2. Change the directory's permissions. 3. Delete the directory.
Am I able to delete a directory without changing the permissions? Can I delete a directory with files inside the directory or does the directory need to be empty?
I need to create a script that deletes all pdf files in a folder that are over 1 day old. I know I need to use the file system object and datediff but can't for the life of me work it out. I am a bit of a newb when it comes to more complicated asp .
Does anyone have a script that does this or know of a tutorial that will teach me how to do it?
I need to read a SQL Server table into a Web Page and within the Web Page to permit my users to make changes to the records, delete or add new records and then save the entire contents back to the SQL Server table back.
The functionality I am looking is almost the same as In the SQL Enterprise Manager whereby I can choose a table open the table and then return all rows and I can maintain the same and save it back to the SQL Server table. I want almost a similar web interface to such a functionality.
Even if not a generic functionality as the SQL Enterprise Manager table maintenance appreciate if somebody can share the code with a sample how I can do it in ASP pages + T-SQL if need be.
Is there a way to omit files listed if using objFSO to query a folder? I have it set to list every image in a folder and return name, size, date with the ability to view or delete the images, but some images should not be deleted. I would like to omit these name from the query objFSO returns.
I have client who has database full of crap. One field in the "property" table is imageurl. I have been able to successfully extract only the file name from the string, such as "2030323.jpg". All images are stored in a directory called "listings". What I am trying to do is to loop through the recordset, and read each imageurl.
If there is an image file in the "listings" directory, then delete the file. It appears that some fields contain imageurls that no longer exist in the listing directory. Here is the code I have so far, I almost had it, as it told me at one point the file didn't exist. Then I screwed up the code and this is where I am at: Code:
I try to do a multiple delete of files through FileSystemObject, but after deleting the first file, ASP gives me a "Permission denied" error. Below you see my code:
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") For Each Item in Request.Form("filename") delFile = path2 & "files" & Item fso.DeleteFile delFile Next
I know this is going to be blindingly simple but I've had one of those days where the more I search and try, the further away from finding the solution I am!
What I'm trying to do is really simple, but the last part of it I can't seem to get right... hopefully someone will spot it straight away.
<% fPath = Server.MapPath(".") qDate = DateAdd("d", -7, Now()) Response.write qDate Set objFSO = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") Set Folder = objFSO.GetFolder(fPath) For Each i In Folder.Files If i.DateCreated <= qDate Then 'objFSO.DeleteFile(i.Name) Response.Write i.Name & "<br>" End If Next
Set i = nothing Set Folder = nothing %>
As you can see, I've got down to selecting all the week old files no problem, but when I come to execute the 'objFSO.DeleteFile(i.Name)' line - I either get file not found or nothing at all.
I can easily upload images, add to db etc etc... but is there a way of actually dynamically removing image files from the server? At the moment I have clients uploading banner adverts to the server, but if they decide to delete the image, it removes the record from the database.
I need to go one step further and remove these 'old files' from the server instead of simply taking up space etc. anyone have any great applications or scripts I can use with a delete statement?
When a file is local to the ASP application, I can use the following code to test if the file exists:
Dim strFileName, blnFileExists, objFSO
strFileName = Server.MapPath( "MyFiles est.doc" )
Set objFSO = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") blnFileExists = objFSO.FileExists( strFileName ) Set objFSO = Nothing
But if "MyFiles" resides on another server and I set up a virtual directory in my ASP app to reference to it (e.g. "MyFiles est.doc" resolves to server2F$MyFilesest.doc), the code would return False even if the file exists on the other server.
what r things that I have to do to let the client browser to delete a file on the server. I'm running my server on WIN2000 pro, IIS 5.0. I've stored my website and server in a virtual directory. This is the code i use to delete a file from the server folder
Code:
Function delete_file(exceldb) '***************** Delete********************** Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") Set fileObject = fso.GetFile(Server.MapPath("..upload2uploads"& exceldb))
fileObject.Delete Set fileObject = Nothing Set fso = Nothing ' Deletes exceldb End Function
Ok, the following page uploads files to the server and renames them according to the item ID and database table (or update type). It also replaces existing files. There are potentially 5 files for each item ID (see FILE REFERENCE). Code:
I have the setup working close to what I am after. The upload script I am using has been supplied by 'Lewis Moten'.
Basically what I am after is.
A job application contact form. that includes a input="file" element allowing the user to send a CV, to the address related to that job.
So far locally I have the file uploading, the file sent, and then the file deleted all working fine. Althoug this may well work locally I feel I will have problems when I come to trying this live. Mainly due to timings.
Surely the script would need to know when the file has been uploaded completely, also when the file has been sent completely before delete....
I have an application that needs to pull files from an internal server. This is the setup. The web server is external facing, meaning exposed to the internet. I then have a file server that sits inside our domain. I created a COM object that can impersonate a user to retrieve files from that server. However, I cannot get the application to pull files from the internal server.
I first tried a domain account that could reach both servers. This did not work. I then had the network team create the same account on both machines. This is not working either. I can impersonate the user (I am able to get the user/users authenticated), but the script keeps coming back with and access denied. Code:
if there's a way to copy image files from one server to another using ASP and FSO? Or perhaps some other way to do it? I'm trying to collect information on books, and want to have a picture of the book associated with the description, but I want to be nice and host the pictures myself, not just link to other people's pictures. Is there a way to do this?
