FileExists On Client Machine NOT Server
The jist of what i want is the obj.FileExists (how it checks for a file on the server) for the client machine.

The client will be scanning something that will put a pdf file into a shared folder on their machine (it will be the same path for all clients). I need to get the code* to pull that file so that i can take the data on the pdf.

*Code doesn't have to be ASP. i'm up for ASP, VBScript, Javascript.

I work with dreamweaver 8. I use the tools provided within dw to create my asp features etc. I downloaded a news script to save time since its a very low budget site, but I need to customise how its displayed.

The news script connects using a Server.MapPath connection. I would like to be able to work locally using a dsn. dsn=nwnews; but I would like to be able to change that connection to work on the remote server for testing etc.

FSO On Remote Server
We're wanting to upload files and save them to a different server on the network (Windows 2000) from the web server. The upload works fine but we cannot copy files, using the File System Object, to this other server folder.

what is required in terms of mapping and registering the folder so that the web server can link to it?

Remote Server By FSO
I just want to delete a file in a server by FSO. My code is:

Set objFSOD = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
objFSOD.DeleteFile Server.MapPath(".") + "Greetings" + sFileName1,
True
Set objFSOD = Nothing

When I check the code locally, everything is fine. I have two remote servers. When I check the code in each servers, one is fine and other is thrown a error. But the error msg is in Korean language while I'm not korean, that is why I can't read the error
msg. What would be the error msg about? The sFileName1 was always correct every time I checked.

Remote Server
Currently we have a site that allows users to listen to mp3 files. It is creating bandwidth issues. So we want to move the mp3 files to an ISP that caps bandwidth usage. Ours is currently burstable.

Now I am able to do the following:

Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
If fs.fileExists(music_file) Then
'show music file
Else
'do not show a link for file
End If
set fs = nothing

Is it possible to do the same thing, but on a remote server?

FSO Remote Server Access
Wish I'd found the thread yesterday before spending half the day fighting
the same battle and finding a workaround. But at least it explains why my
final approach worked.I set the remote folder as a virtual folder on the webserver, assigned web rights to a domain user and used fso.copyfile(server.mappath) to copy a
file created locally.I'm not thrilled that access to the remote location can't be controlled at the user level this way but at least access to the calling script can.
Strange though, the problem showed up during a migration. Server A had been
hosting this asp page and connecting to server B sucessfully. I was moving
the application to server C when I ran into the problem. All three machines
are W2K, same service pack, same domain, same users, same access
rights/method configuration. Go figure.

Server Side Vs. Remote
I'm having a problem viewing a pdf file via intranet from the remote location. When I view it from the server side it works. Here is the code and the file name.

This is what the path looks like in the Access 2k database. c:/Inetpub/WWWroot/TEB/Documents Okay this is what happens, when I use this path it doesn't open the file because it's looking for it on my local machine.

But when I use this path f:/Inetpub/WWWroot/TEB/Documents in which F: is mapped to the server where the web site is locate it opens the file. If I use this method this would mean mapping everyone to this server which causes a security issue.

I cannot allow anyone to view or modify my files for the intranet, they may become corrupted. So what I need is some kind of alias or something that. Is there a way that I can capture the c drive from the server using Access 2k without using the actual c: format so that it will read from the server and not the local pc. Code:

Global.asa - Different Behavior On Local And Remote Server?
On a remote server running W2K and thus IIS 5 I have session variables declared in a global.asa file in the root of the application which are passed and visible on all pages with no problem. This was also the case on my localhost before (127.0.0.1), also on W2K / IIS 5. But now for some reason one variable doesn't pass through at all and the other is taken as a String on the localhost.

The problem area in question in my Global.asa file (which is identical on the remote and local servers)

<script language="vbscript" runat="server">

Sub Session_OnStart
CInt(Session("indx"))=0
CInt(Session("total"))=0
...
End Sub

When I view the values locally with:

pprice = Request.QueryString("fpPrice")
Session("total") = Session("total") + pprice
Response.Write "Index: " & Session("indx")
Response.Write "Total: " & Session("total")

I get (for example - pprice = 45, and after 3 attempts):

Index:
Total: 454545

Whereas on the remote server I get:

Index: 3
Total: 135

Has anyone else experienced this?

FileExists And Sessions Problem
I simply want to verify the existance of a file on the server,

if the file Exists
do something on the client side
otherwise
Stop executing and reload the main page (login).

To get the response of the FileExists I use a ShowModalWindow from a VBS call. The value returned works fine but only the FIRST time that it is called. Only if I restart the IE I get the correct response from FileExists. It seems a session related problem, infact the modal window has always the same session ID (unless IE is restarted). "Session.abandon" in the modal window code didn'T help.

FileExists For Networked Locations
I have been messing with FSO.FileExists for a while and have been looking into its limitations. On our server, we operate our directory in:

d:inetpubwwwrootintranet

and inside that directory is a VIRTUAL DIRECTORY by the name of employeeImages which maps to

otherserverfolder

So saying

d:inetpubwwwrootintranetemployeeImagesfile.jpg

IS the same thing as saying

otherserverfolderfile.jpg

The problem is, that when I set that path to a variable, called strPath and perform the following:

blnExists = FSO.FileExists(strPath)

it KEEPS returning as FALSE. So I had it output strPath. Sure enough it was the URL shown above. I cut and paste that into a window's location bar and boom, I'm taken RIGHT to the image.

So I'm thinking "Ok, FSO is a FILE SYSTEM OBJECT. Maybe it's limitations mean that it can only look at the local filesystem? Maybe it cannot see across a networked device? Maybe it cannot work with virtual directories?" I've done some looking around and cannot find any pages on limitations of FSO.

Serverfile.ext Does Not Like ObjFSO.FileExists()
When a file is local to the ASP application, I can use the following code to
test if the file exists:

Dim strFileName, blnFileExists, objFSO

strFileName = Server.MapPath( "MyFiles est.doc" )

Set objFSO = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
blnFileExists = objFSO.FileExists( strFileName )
Set objFSO = Nothing

But if "MyFiles" resides on another server and I set up a virtual directory
in my ASP app to reference to it (e.g. "MyFiles est.doc" resolves to
server2F$MyFilesest.doc), the code would return False even if the file
exists on the other server.

Remote ASP
I have an application i am creating that will require the ability for a remote site to access some of the abilities of the program.

For example: Program will have a product manager and the webmaster will need to be able to place the product information on his/her remote site.

another funtion: the remote site will need to pass variable data back and forth between the application hosting server and webmasters site.

I have thought about using cookies or XML but cookies are kinda limited in respect to what i need and XML requires an XML enabled browser like IE 5+.
