Hi there

I've got some files on a separate server to the database server where the aspjpeg component is installed.

What's happening is that the other files sit on a separate server and when they call up the database it is via a global.asp file that directs the pages to the database server.

It's all working fine bar the aspjpeg where I get the error message:

Server object error 'ASP 0177 : 800401f3'

Server.CreateObject Failed


The error message refers to the following line of code:

Set jpeg = Server.CreateObject("Persits.Jpeg")
        jpeg.Open(File.Path)


Prior to this line I have used an include file 'global.asp' for the db connection.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Regards

Adam

Hi Adam,

Is the control registered on the server correctly? And does the account used by the webserver have enough permissions to access the DLL?

Hi Imar

Thanks for the response. I've been thinking it could possibly be permissions to the user. It's definitely registered correctly because it works locally on the server.

What permissions would I need to have for the account used by the webserver if it was being accessed from elsewhere?

thanks

Adam

It depends on your setup. Does the ASP page and the component reside on the same server, and are you trying to access an image on a different server? That is, does File.Path contain something like \\ServerName\ShareName\ImageName.jpg ?

In that case, take a look at this FAQ: http://Imar.Spaanjaars.Com/QuickDocId.aspx?QUICKDOC=276

Otherwise, can you provide a bit more information about your setup and explain what calls what on which server?

Thanks Adam. Still my problem is not solved.
I am using the AspTear1.50 evaluation version. This is
working fine. But When iam using it for authenticated
sites, no response it is getting. Without user name
and password it works fine.
for example
strRetval=xobj.Retrieveurl,Request_GET, "", "", "") it
works fine.
But strRetval=xobj.Retrieveurl,Request_GET, "", "aaa",
"bbb") it doesn't work. I am getting the time out
error after a long time the page is being processed.
Can any one solve my problem.
Thanks,
Subbu
