WScript.Shell Object
I've made an ASP page that calls a small executable and collects its text output into a variable ("strExeOut") below. Below is some code similar to the one I use for that purpose.
strExe = "C:whatevermyprogram.exe -h1 -d33"
Set objShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Set objScriptExec = objShell.Exec(strExe)
strExeOut = objScriptExec.StdOut.ReadAll
I developed this in my own computer and the whole thing works like a charm, but
unfortunately I assumed my hosting provider would let me run the (little and harmless) exe, and they won't.
Therefore I have to run only the "exe" portion of the code in another web server and send back the output to my website on the net. I'd like to get some feedback on what would be the best way to call an exe on another server, and to have the output sent back.
VBscript IIS And WScript.Shell Object
can SO tell me why the following script :
dim oShell
set oShell=WScript.CreateObject("WScript.shell")
oShell.run ("C:WINNTsystem32cmd.exe /c C:WINNTsystem32
otepad.exe")
set oShell=nothing
works as expected in the context of a .vbs script and doesn't work (with the following changes made...) when inserted in a .asp web page under IIS ?
dim oShell
set oShell=Server.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
'
intReturn = oShell.run ("C:WINNTsystem32cmd.exe /c C:WINNTsystem32
otepad.exe")
response.write(intReturn)
set oShell=nothing
the Shell object is well created (i can check some of its properties) but the oShell.run command doesn't seem to execute the given command line.

Using WScript In ASP
how to use WScript in ASP? I figured out that if I use a WSH object to send the keystroke {F5} it will refresh the pages adequately. (see my thread Refreshing Pages! for what I am taling about) Anyway, this code: Code:
Set wshshell=WScript.CreateObject("wscript.shell")
wshshell.sendkeys {F5}
Should accomplish this. Or something similar should work. Anyways, I don't entirely know how to do this.

Wscript Permissions
i created an asp script that calls wscript which in turn calls up an .bat file. I have tested this script on my machine on my home win2k3 machine but cannot reproduce the same thing on my other server. Right now, IIS requres "intergrated windows authentication" login and run the script.
I ve given the user account every possible permission combo i thought of. The script in question has permissiont to run, it even has admin priviledges for testing purposes. But nothing happens when i run it from my page. I am completly stuck right now. No idea how to persue this b/c ive exhuasted every possible thing i know and every tip i read about.
WScript.Shell Run Error
I am currently in the process of converting a website from an existing
web host to our servers. This website used the WScript.Shell command
to execute a series of Java commands that would send an encrypted
email.
I ran these commands directly on the server and they execute properly,
but when I try to run them from within the WScript.Shell command then
I get a return code of 1, and the actions that should be completed are
not.
The shell is executing a .bat file which is in the same directory the
text files it needs to run the following sample command(s): Code:
Wscript.Shell.run Returns 254
I am trying to run a command line from an ASP page. I am using windows 2003 with IIS6. I am able to get this to run on my local machine (Windows XP IIS5). Here is my code:

For win2k adv server/iis5.0 trying to run an external program from my asp routine that has multiple

set shell = server.createobject("wscript.shell")
shell.Run """f:phsDatahtmldochtmldoc.exe"" --webpage -f phsnew.pdf

program either doesn't get invoked, or has an error, but since it has no error log i can't check that, so not sure why not getting a result i have run the program successfully from the command line in that directory, so know it can be run in the first place and the asp program creates and writes files in the same directory so i don't think its a permission problem. asp doesn't complain with any errors.
Wscript.Shell Run Program
I am trying to use the Run method of WScript.Shell to run a program that creates image files on the server. When I run the program through the command line it creates a text file and a bmp file which is what it is supposed to do.
If I run it from an asp page it doesnt do anything, it also doesnt give me any error messages. I can run the same vbscript code in a standalone vbs file on the server and it works right. Code:

ActiveXObject Vs WScript.CreateObject
what is the difference between these two jscript statements?
object = new ActiveXObject("myobject.object");
vs
object = WScript.CreateObject("myobject.object");
on my samples they practically does the same. what are the differences (if any). when would you use one over the other?
Using WScript.Shell And The Run Command
I've been testing the WScript.Shell object and the Run command now for a server query. The file I am running generates a file with the server querys which i later on parse in my page. But there is a problem. When running the Run command om my Windows XP machine it all seems fine. But when trying to run it on my webserver (not configured by myself) I get an error, or the command fails. It's nothing wrong with the acctuall command but ASP seems to not want to allow the Run command.
First I though it had to do with user privilegies but after giving the IUSR_X full access it didn't help. So, does anybody know a solution for this? Exactly what do I have to configure, for what user, to make this work on my webserver (win2k).
Wscript.shell Error
Trying to view asp page which has the following code in
Set obj = WScript.CreateObject('WScript.Shell')
It falls over on this line saying 'Activex cannot create component (wscript.shell)'. Doing the same in a .vbs file results in the same error. The platform is NT4 Server Service Pack 6a.
Wscript.CreateObject Error On ASP Page
The statement in an asp page:
dim objShell
Set objShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
now gives this error:
VB err= 424,Object required
If I use setobjShell=Server.CreateObject("WScript.Shell"), I get the error
VB err= 5,Invalid procedure call or argument
I believe it stopped working in July 2004 after a security update. I have
re-registered the appropriate dlls and ocxs.
Does anyone have an idea? I am trying to use this object so that I can
execute a batch file that was created earlier in the program.
Wscript.shell To Open File
I have a big problem with some part of my code, where I'm using the wscript.shell method to open a file...
I've tried this:
dim shell
set shell= createobject("wscript.shell")
shell.run "C:Clip_CreatorTVSA02.bat"
set shell=nothing
and this
Function fnShellExecuteVB()
dim objShell
set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
objShell.ShellExecute "C:WINNT
otepad.exe", "", "", "open",1
set objShell = nothing
End Function
I don't get any error but the application doesn't starts, I've also tried executing the notepad.exe and occurrs the same, nothing happens, I don't get error but the notepad doesnt lunch...
I'm getting tired about this code, I've tried a lot of kinds of scripts but I got the same result...
How To Use WScript.Shell Properly From An ASP Page?
I have a process that creates a whole bunch of files in a specified directory. The names of the files are the employee IDs with an .txt extension, so they are like
EMP001.txt
EMP002.txt
EMP003.txt
The background is a bit more complicated so I won't bore you with it, but I hope that I can add a button on the asp page that would
1) go to that specified directory, which is database-driven by the department id, such as
D:DepartmentDEPT001
and I'll be able to figure the directory path from the existing code
2) then loop through each employee id and append the employee name, so the above will become
EMP001JohnDoe.txt
EMP002MaryJane.txt
EMP003PeterKay.txt
The employee names are also database driven and my asp page will be able to provide the information.
What I would like is to have a button that would open the cmd.exe and make the appropriate changes, and then do the rename, and then close the cmd window.
I know that you can have something like: Code:
WScript.Shell And ASP, Permission Problem On IIS 5
When I call the WScript.Shell and "RUN" the object...
I've got nothing on the server
For Example,
objWscript.Run "notepad.exe", True, 1
But on the server side, there is no this process running..
The NTFS of notepad.exe permission is set to EVERYONE already..
While the IIS is running under the account of IUSR_XXXX
Is there any something wrong in the permission settings?
However, I run the same script on Windows 2003 Server, it is ok....
WScript.Shell To Execute Ms-DOS Commands?
How can I use WScript.Shell to execute Ms-DOS commands and can I see the

Access Denied To Wscript.shell
I need to use nslookup on an asp page. So I use the sort of code I can see
in the discussion group:
SET objShell = Server.CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")
DIM objExec
SET objExec = objShell.Exec("%comspec% /c nslookup -type=MX "&host)
but I get "access denied" on the SET statement. (It doesn't matter what
command I am using in the shell.)
On the physical IIS application directory Web sharing is enabled
I enable anonymous access
I have full control for the internet guest account.
I have permission for scripts and executables on the virtual directory

I have enabled web sharing for windowsSystem32. (I probably shouldn't have!)
Clearly there is something I have forgotten. But what?

View Replies View RelatedArrays Of Dictionary Object Stored In An Object?
I'll admit my ASP skills are very rusty, and come seeking help.
I'm currently using a dictionary object to store a multi-dimensional array.
I want to pass this dictionary object to an object, which holds an array of dictionary objects.
However I'm finding that the array is not getting set, thus I'm having great issue with dynamically resizing the object's property for every new dictionary object I'm adding.
Can VB Com Object Used By ASP Get Events Fired By An Internal Object?
I have a VC++ COM object which fires an event. I've written VB EXE apps against it and they receive the event notification.
I've now built a simple VB COM object which uses the VC++ COM object internally.
My question is, assuming the ASP page which loads the object does not immediately exit, will the VB COM object be able to receive the events from the internal object?
Object Reference Not Set To An Instance Of An Object.
We are using .net 1.1 on windows 2003 server. This is we are facing in our
production server.
When we are doing the load testing we are getting the bellow error. While

Recordset Object Vs Command Object
I want to open a recordset object on an .asp page. When I open the recordset I would like to use a stored procedure that expects a parameter to be passed for the stored procedure. I will then use the recordset to loop thru the recordset, update values from the recordset and then update the database by passing parmeters to another stored procedure.
I would like to use the recordset object but can it be used to pass a parameter to a stored procedure? Do I need to use a command object to open the records instead in
order to pass the parameter to a stored procedure?
Wscript.Shell Run PRINT And NET PRINT Returns Nothing
No error or any feedback that I can work with.
Code:
set objShell = Server.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
objShell.Run "%comspec% /c NET PRINT GarchiveISLaser[color=blue]
>c:WUTempPrinter_Status1.txt", 0, True[/color]
objShell.Run "%comspec% /c PRINT /d:GarchiveISLaser c:WUTemp est.txt",
0, True
Set objShell = nothing
I can run these commands successfully from the command-prompt on the server
but from an ASP page, I get nothing not even an error. The Text output for
NET PRINT is a blank text file.
I feel something is different on the permissions side because this
code/approach use to work fine.

2) The proxy is installed on an IIS server (Win 2000) with delivers the interface, written in ASP, to the client PC.
