Is there a way to create directories using vb or jscript in IIS to a unix machine? I want to have the aility to upload files through my Win2k Web Server, and have those files stored on my Mac OS X Server under new directories based on date and Upload ID's from the Db.
View RepliesI need to do is display results of a command I run in UNIX, for example:
In the ASP page I'd have a textbox in which the user would type an UNIX command like "cat unixFile", after the user hits the "Execute Button" the results would be displayed in another textbox.
Basically my question is, how can I login to an UNIX server from ASP, send UNIX commands and capture the result?
Simple quesion: Can you run ASP pages on a Unix server?
I am trying to learn "include files" and before I go any further I need to know if it can be used on a Unix server. IF NOT, what would be my options?
I'm working on a proof of concept for ASP. I've already done it using Windows 2k server, IIS, using open source [no initial cost involved]. I'm looking to doing the same using a linux box. Does anyone know if this can be done without buying any additional tools?
View Replies View Relatedi have got someone who is interested in moving a ASP site to my hosting setup but my host is a UNIX platform. Actually i can see no reason for his site to be ASP cause it looks like a flat html site with .asp encoded pages.I just wondered what the experts think of running ASP on UNIX.
View Replies View RelatedIn my pages i have to read a text file which is created in Unix format through my asp code. The problem is that the readline command reads the whole file and not line by line as the file is in Unix format. Is there a way to convert it using asp code and then read it or any other solution to this problem?
As the file is created by an application not controlled by myself it is impossible to force the application developer to do this job so i have to do it during runtime. So what are your suggestions?
I am trying to replicate the Unix Timestamp,specifically the function
mktime() in Vbscript, ASP. I have the following so far:
ThisTime = DateSerial(2004, 9, 27) + TimeSerial(0, 0, 0)
response.write DateDiff("s", "12/31/1969 00:00:00", ThisTime)
This returns the timestamp: 1096329600, and when you decode that it comes
to: 27 Sep 2004 20:00. I want to set the time too, ie. show for example: 27
Sep 2004 16:15
Please tell me how to execute a unix shell script from ASP?
Is it possible to pass the user id and password for the unix server as call parameters?
Will ASP run on Unix/Linux software like Apache or Red Hat? If so what needs to be done to do this?
View Replies View RelatedI need to access a database on a MS SQL Sever from my unix apache web server.I would preferably want to continue to use ASP rather than go to PHP or Perl - I know that I need to build unixODBC on the web box, but do I need to do anything else other than reference the SQL server in unixODBC?
Has anyone used unixODBC? The console & CLI seem fairly self-explanatory... Do you need extra drivers to connect to a MS SQL box? Can I still use the same server.createobject & ADODB statements in my ASP code? Or do they need to change? Syntax etc?
I'm new to ASP so please forgive my ignorance. Our IT department says that there is no way that what I suggest can be done. I disagree because it should be possible (if not there is a massive hole in the market), but don't have the technical knowledge to back myself.
We have an Windows/IIS web server for our public website. Internally for our intranet we have a Unix box with and Oracle database. What I want to know is: Is it possible to query that database from the windows server using ASP? Are there any clients/COM/APIs etc that this would require? Can anyone direct me to a webpage that has more info?
I currently use ADO (adoConn.Provider = "ADSDSOObject") to access user information in the domain Active Directory. I want to expand my application to be able to access user information in other LDAP compatable user lists (LINUX or UNIX for example). I did some
searching on deja.com (google groups) and microsoft's newsgroups, but couldn't find anything.
I have written a script to update user information in the Active Directory using ADSI. Here is part of it:
Set User = GetObject("LDAP://<GUID=" & GUID & ">")
User.Department = DepartmentName
User.SetInfo
Set User = Nothing
This works fine unless DepartmentName is an empty string ("").
Then I get error 0x8007200B: "The attribute syntax specified to the directory service is invalid."
This happens with all the attributes I have tried, including TelephoneNumber
.
Do I need to delete the value of the attribute instead of setting it to an empty string? If so, how do I do it?
i'm trying to use an odbc driver to connect from an asp page to a data source (dbase) on unix sunsolaris. is this poss?
the driver is installed though i cant seem to do it through dreamweaver ultradev - can i do it through the ftp connection?
what would i input as the source on the following to initiate the connection in the asp page?
"Provider= "MSDASQL"; Data Source= server name ?
"Database=test;User ID=sa;Password=blabla"
or how would i do it using the followign as an include file ? Code:
im brand new to ASP and all but at school they want a webpage and they wont support PHP which is what i know so i need to figure out how to show everything under a directory then if sub folders have them link to that folder
View Replies View RelatedI would like to do something like this:
<!--#include file="C:dbutilsdbConfig.asp"-->
Where the directory C:dbutils is OUTSIDE of the web directory and not
accessible by a client web browser.
The reason I would like to do this is in case somehow ASP processing
gets turned off in IIS. Since "dbConfig.asp" contains a
username/password for the database, I don't want this file to somehow
get sent back to a client browser as plain text.
Two questions:
1) is it possible to use an include file that is outside of the web
directory?
2) is there even any way that ASP processing can be turned off?
perhaps not explicitly, but maybe via malicious code or virus?
Does anyone know if it's possible to convert files to .pdf format through ASP? or better yet, does anyone know of a utility that can take a directory of word documents and form one pdf file with the contents?
View Replies View RelatedI've been playing with the script at http://www.asp101.com/samples/dir_list.asp
What I want to know is if the script can be changed to 'read' from the dir it 'loads' from..
So I can just put the script is heaps of folders without having to edit the 'strPath' for each.
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 it possible to read the all filenames from a directory? Basically I want to grab all the filenames from a directory and make a flat file with all the values in it.
View Replies View RelatedI'm trying to create my own browsing window for a directory on my webserver. I can access the root the directory and the first sub-directory but anything lower than that I get "path not found".

Obviously in the SEO world, this:

Is better than:

Here's the challenge though: How do you get your dynamic pages to appear as a directory rather than an asp page with a querystring? I'm fairly certain that there is a workaround to this to be able to have one dynamic asp script that appears in your address bar as a directory.
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
