ASP write to txt file
Im getting a error when trying to write to a txt file.
Code:
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a004c'
Path not found
/BSTV/Video/VideoUpload.asp, line 295
Code:
dim fs,tfile
set fs=Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
set tfile=fs.CreateTextFile("E:\www\NMBSTV\Prototype\somefile.txt")
tfile.WriteLine(ful)
tfile.close
set tfile=nothing
set fs=nothing
Its so annoying i got it working on my test server and then moved it to another server and it gives this error i think it could be perrmisions but ive gave the folder read write permisions.
i also have the iis username password stuff setup.

The purpose of my previous post was just to validate that the path in your code was correct on the server since the interpeter message said otherwise.
The error you posted above is from a different page then your original post. What is line 102?

I think this error is coming b'coz u r using real path of file.
Try this--
(1) In which virtual Directory (Folder) u r using for your website, Create a Folder named - Upload.
(2) At the place you are giving code to create text file use this.
set tfile=fs.CreateTextFile(server.MapPath("upload")+" \somefile.txt")
It may be helpful for you.

Classic ASP writing file error
I am getting an "Object Required" error when calling this function... It's driving me crazy because from all I can find on line this code looks good. I have another function that can read the contents of the file just fine but when I try and write to it (over it) I get the error. Any help would be great.
Code:
Function WriteDataToFile(strFilePath, txt)
on error resume next
dim objFSO, objFile
strFilePath = Server.MapPath(strFilePath)
Set objFSO = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
' Getting error on this line....
Set objFile=objFSO.CreateTextFile(strFilePath)
objFile.WriteLine(txt)
objFile.Close
Set objFile = nothing
Set objFSO = nothing
if err then response.Write(err.Description)
End Function

I don't understand how you can get an error when you use (yuck!!) ON ERROR RESUME NEXT. Unless you mean you see the error down at that last line.
Anyway...if the file already exists, then CreateTextFile will fail.
Unless you add another argument to it:
Code:
Set objFile=objFSO.CreateTextFile(strFilePath, True)
That TRUE argument says "overwrite if exists".

Yep, I added the on error so I could see what was going...
As it turns out - I figured there had to be an issue with the server's write permissions and that was the problem. Anyway, all works with the code after the ISP changed the permissions.
Thanks for looking at it and the reply.
