Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a0046'

[malgreen]

Anyone please,


I’m in the process of relocating a web site that was housed on two different servers, (One front end the other backend) on to one server. I have made all of the path changes and have this final issue where the program queries data for a report and then creates or “writes” an .asp page in other folder for review. I was in the www root directory, when I saw your posting I moved the folder that I was writing to out of the wwwroot directory. The problem is that I still get the error. I use Windos Server 2003 and IIS 6.0. Any ideas. I don’t want to move the website in to production yet so it is located on the local host.



Thanks,



Mal Green

ASP Error '800a0046' refers to 'Permission Denied'

Since you are trying to write a file, it sounds like you have not given proper write permissions to the folder where you are writing the file to.

Since it's on the localhost in a test environment, I would suggest opening up the permissions temporarily and seeing if that helps.

Sincerely,
Mark

Mark,

That did it and the file did write to the folder, but now I can't veiw the file, being that I'm coming in on the backside of this site (meaning I'm not the developer of this site) I will have to review the code and find out why I can't view the actual file requested.

Thanks for the insight it was very helpful.

P.S.
When I do place the site into production, normal permissions should be fine, right?

thanks again
