I have the following very simple script which works on my desktop (XP-PRO &
IIS5.1) but does not work on my laptop with the same config. It also works
on other configurations without a problem. I have tried re installing IIS
which has not made any difference. The script gets to the line annotated
"'This is where it breaks" and at this line the script simply hangs with no
error message at all.
I would guess this is some kind of config problem but I have tried comparing
a system that works against this one but haven't been able to find any
differences.
Any help/guidance would be appreciated.

Script is as follows:-
<%@LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT" CODEPAGE="1252"%>
<html>
<head>
<title>Read Text File</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>
<body bgcolor="#CACAFF">
<%
Dim fs,readfile
'Now read back the the data
response.write "reading data from file"
Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
filename=server.mappath("Information.txt")
response.write "-----" & filename &"-----"
'response.flush
Set readfile=fs.OpenTextFile(filename,ForAppending,Tru e)'this is
where it breaks
response.write "FS Open created OK"
Do until readfile.AtEndOfStream
response.write "<br>"
%>
<%
Text=readfile.readline
If Text="" then
response.write "<p>"
Else
response.write Text
End If
Loop
readfile.close
set readfile=nothing
%>
</body>
</html>
