I have created some WSH scripts on my Webserver that are executed by
the Windows Task Scheduler. I want to be able to execute some of these
scripts using a web interface and don't want to duplicate these scripts
in ASP. I know this can be done using the WScript.Shell run method but
I am having no success. Below is a test application I have thrown
together to demonstrate my problem.
If I run c:\intetpub\wwwroot\wshasp\storetime.vbs from the server's
command line it appends the text file
c:\intetpub\wwwroot\wshasp\storetime.vbs with the current time. I can
do this forever and it keeps adding the time to the file, no problem
whatsoever. If I run the ASP using a browser I get nothing, no errors,
just a browser page with "objWSH.run Result: 0", no time is appended to
storedtime.txt, no errors are recorded in any logs.
I have adjusted security settings for iusr_MACHINENAME to allow
read/write/execute.
Finally, I have successfully used the wscript.shell object in an ASP
function to make a direct call to ping, dir, etc. and pipe the results
to a text file.
I have incorporated many things in the following code that I found
searching this group and many links found on Google. Nothing seems to
work, any ideas?

Slim, thanks but . . .
function testScript()
dim objWSH
dim intReturn
' edit
dim strRun
' /edit
intReturn = 7 'initialized the value to insure it changed
set objWSH = server.createObject("wscript.shell")
' edit
strRun = "wscript c:\intetpub\wwwroot\wshasp\storetime.vbs"
intReturn = objWSH.run(strRun)
' /edit
set objWSH = nothing
response.write("objWSH.run Result: " & intReturn & "<br />")
end function 'testScript
Same result (no vbs execution). Again, thanks for the reply.

For those interested I found a solution. I had not specified the
command interpreter. See the edited line. You can use either "cmd" or
"%comspec%" to call the primary or secondary command interpreters
respectively.
function testScript()
dim objWSH
dim intReturn
intReturn = 7 'initialized the value to insure it changed
set objWSH = server.createObject("wscript.shell")
'edit
intReturn = objWSH.run("cmd /c
c:\intetpub\wwwroot\wshasp\storetime.vbs, 0, true")
'/edit
set objWSH = nothing
response.write("objWSH.run Result: " & intReturn & "<br />")
end function 'testScript
