Hi all,

I am developing a .vbs file which will be executed by a server schedule. When the script is executed it need to look at the Server IP address where the script resides.

I originally developed it in ASP using vbscript and it worked fine running through a browser using :-

Request.Servervariables("LOCAL_ADDR")

Unfortunately when I try and run this file manually by double clicking it through File Manager (not through the browser) it simply does not work. There is no error. I know that the script is failing at this point.

Does anyone know how I can find out the IP address where the script resides within a .vbs file?

I appreciate any help.

Thanks

Use you brain, not your brawn!

When you run it with an ASP, it is being run under the auspices of a web process (I am using that not as a technical term, but as a descriptive one).

When you double-click the file, you are not.

I think I would put the results of .ServerVariables("LOCAL_ADDR") into a variable. Then I would add a test to see if the veriable received any results. If not, then I would try something like CurDir(), or something else along those lines.

But the bottom line is that there is no IP Addr when you double-click the file.
