Hi, I'm trying to use w2003 server with pure asp upload with image g. No matter what i try it wont work if it has to create a new directory. All security settings / permissions have been set.
I really want to write to a separte drive ( ie not c<img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle> but if i set a virual directory in the IIS it completely ignores the path.
Reading through the forums here there are many similar questions, sadly no answers. Surely this is a major isssue for the software manufacturers to resolve.( are you reading George)

This problem is known and Pure ASP Upload does not support virtual folders like \\computer2\d. However you can use the d:\folder construction.

Under w2003 sadly i cannot stop the permissions error if i use d:\folder construction (with some variable).
STOP PRESS NEWS... I reread all of your forums today & found a comment about not having paths beginning ../path
So i made a new virtual directory that was at the one level down from directory i was reading from ( so the path would be directory/session name/filename.jpg AND it works.
Creating dynamic directories & writing both image & thumbnail in 2003 to a virtual directory on anothe drive! <img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>
same code doesnt run on a w2000 server though.
