Respected Imar sir,

first of all sorry for being posting a thread in wrong forum...but i want answer from you...because you always siplify the things...sorry once agin....

I have made a website in classic asp, and after checking all bugs...i have moved website on server where i have registered a domain...

Website was working finely..but yesterday i got thr problem while uploading a photo on website...when i click on upload , it gave me an error:

Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a0046'

Permission denied

/member/methods/save_file_mtds.asp, line 69

code in my file is

Code:

'********	FUNCTION saveToFile	  **********************
		Public Function saveToFile(name, path)
		'	Response.Write("<SPAN STYLE='font-family: verdana; font-size: 8pt; font-weight: bold;'> Revecied in save to file " & path & "</SPAN><br>")
	If dict.Exists(name) Then
	Dim temp
	temp = dict(name).Item("Value")
	Dim fso
	Set fso = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
	Dim file
	Set file = fso.CreateTextFile(path)      //this is line 69
	For tPoint = 1 to LenB(temp)
	   file.Write Chr(AscB(MidB(temp,tPoint,1)))
	Next
	file.Close
	saveToFile = True
	Else
	saveToFile = False
	End If
	End Function

...I have cheked all my code again..it is write...when i googled the error, i m getting solutions like, go to IIS...set permissions..(and most of the problems are related to SMTP and mail..but i m getting this error while uploading photo) ..but i m confused, i have transfer the website to server which is hosted by another person..if i want to make any changes in site, i do it using filezilla..when i called him, he said its all ok from my side, it is programming issue ..what is problem , is it in code or on server side?? plz help

Thanx in advance
Sushant

If you're so sorry, why not post this where it belongs: in a classic ASP specific forum? It's in no way related to this book, so you're only cluttering up this forum and make it harder for others that come here for the book to find what they need.

That said, if it works locally, the code is probably fine and it must be a hosting issue.

Please continue this on the other (cross) post you made as it really doesn't belong here.

Cheers.

This is not how it works. You don't post questions for me, you post questions for the public. This is a forum with hundreds if not thousands of active contributors of which I am only one.

If you want help, determine your topic (ASP, ASP.NET, databases and so on), find an appropriate forum, and make a post there. Then, as Matt said, you need patience. If someone sees your post and has an answer, you're lucky. That's how it works for me. If, and when I have the time, I visit these forums and answer posts that I find interesting, are well formulated, are on-topic, and obviously, to which I know the answer. I let all the others simply pass by...

Cheers,

Imar
