FSO - Network Drives - Please help!
Hi,
I've got some code that happily lists folders and files on our webserver. The problem is, I've now deployed this site onto our Live Server but it still needs to read the files and folders from our Test Server.
I created a P:\ drive on the Live Server mapped to the Test Server (just a standard Network Mapping) and this opens fine from the Live Server.
However, the ASP fails, with Path Not Found. If I change the code to read the local C:\ Drive - it's fine.
Quote:

Path not found
|
The Live Server is a Windows 2003 server, the Test Server is Windows 2000.
Where am I going wrong? Any help will be gratefully appreciated.
:(
Cheers
Craig.

Are those two servers under same domain? If so you can achieve that using "\\ServerName\ShareName\" as path for it, but not using Drive mapping.

Hi,
We're not using Domain Controllers.
Tried using the UNC \\Servername\Share but nothing worked. Still got Path Not Found, even though if I manually typed it into the Run box, the share appeared on the screen.

Obviously it would show you that in RUN box, but with FSO, it is not the case.
Check out this PRB: Cannot Access Remote Files with the FileSystemObject, that should help fixing this error.
Cheers!

I tried that already.
Doesn't appeared to have worked - either that or I've implemented it in incorrectly.
Any other test I can do?
Cheers.

There should have been some mistake in doing that, that works perfect.

Well I created a username of IUSR_LiveServer with the same password as the Live Server on the Test Server.
Then went to the folder I need to see, right clicked and added a share with IUSR_LiveServer having FULL permissions to the share and the Security Tab.
But no success.

Maybe, you can try the process mentioned in that link step by step.

I tried as much as I can, but I'm using IIS 6, not 4/5 and some of the steps do not match what appears on screen.
Also the Applies To section does not list IIS 6. The box requiring access is a IIS 5.0 box, but it's connecting to an IIS 6 server, where the authentication occurs I'm assuming.
