    Upsizing to MS SQL

    Just wanted to let you know I was able to successfully set this up using ADP. For anyone interested in doing this: From within Access, do File -> New -> Project using existing data. The 'existing data' part seems to have eluded me, but once I set this up and got it to connect (using IP #), I...

    Upsizing to MS SQL

    Sounds good, but we don't have the budget for that right now. Someone just suggested I try using ADP, which gives me an Access frontend to SQLServer. Will see how that works. What version of SQL Server are you running on MSSQL9? Also, when I give ADP the domain name mssql9.m****here.biz...

    Upsizing to MS SQL

    To be honest, I know nothing about SQL server. I just want to convert this app to SQL before it gets too large, and now I'm doing a server move seems like a good time. Looking at some other posts here, seems like there's a free version of the SQL manager that I can install (although I'm having...

    Upsizing to MS SQL

    I used control panel to set up a new MS SQL user, then created a new database. But when I try to connect (from CP) I get a generic error - Server Error in '/' Application. I tried putting a web.config file as suggested, but since I don't think the error is coming from my web server root...

    ASP Code to send mail to AOL

    KC, thanks - that was very helpful. Now, next question - this client doesn't have any POP mail accounts (they prefer forwards for some reason). I obviously need a POP account set up in order to do authentication. Will this "authenticated user" over-ride the "From" oin the emails I generate?

    ASP Code to send mail to AOL

    I found some old threads on this, but doesn't seem to have been resolved. I have a script on Win14 that sends a thank-you email using CDOSYS. Any messages to AOL bounce back with this message: Unable to deliver message to the following recipients, due to being unable to connect successfully...

    Forum & Content Management app

    A client wants a content management app and forum. Content management is pretty simple - upload PDFs for members to download, and there are lots of forum packages available. But I'm wondering if anyone knows of/has used any tool that combines both? I've looked at DotNetNuke and it seems like...

    Custom webmail login

    skypanther, good suggestion, but I'd rather have Jodo keep the software updated and maintained. I already have enough to do supporting users, so I'd rather not have custom scripts (on multiple machines) to worry about.

    Custom webmail login

    Several of my clients are not web-savvy. They usually use Outlook, but occasionally need to log into webmail. I've recommended they use SquirrelMail. The default mail.mydomain.com page, with multiple email clients, is just confusing to them. I'd like to give them a more direct way to get...

    Redirect http to https

    If all you want to do is redirect to https, just check the port: If Request.ServerVariables("SERVER_PORT")=80 Then response.redirect("https://www.someplace.com") end if The rest of my script just makes sure they also have www in the URL (because my SSL cert is only for that domain name)...

    Redirect http to https

    Just saw this post today, but in case you're still looking here's how I do it. This first checks if they used www (since my SSL cert only works on that domain). Then I reconstruct the original URL with https and www and redirect them wher they were going. <% ' ForceSSL.asp ' included at...

    Upload limit.

    ok, so it just doesn't go through? No error messages? I guess I'll have to make sure to make the warnings extra big. Thanks

    Upload limit.

    Stephen, How is the limit implemented (ie: what error will clients see?) I'm building an image upload application. Users will upload a Jpeg, then I'll use aspjpeg to resize it and delete the original. I'll also be limiting the max size they can upload, but my understanding is that...

    Perl cgi path question

    I've got a new customer I'll be moving over to a windows server soon. However, in the meantime his current host just broke his existing cgi by requiring him to move it to /cgi-bin It's an ancient script and the original programmer hard-coded it to run from the web root. I'm trying to just fix...

    no one around the desk?

    I'm having problems also on win14. Live chat was not helpful, and no response to a support ticket. Luckily I did this one for my client - if this had been a new client experiencing this I'd be looking pretty bad right now. The issue is I set up a new stopgap domain, but none of the web or...

    Mail Servers

    Sorry - I didn't see the re-schedule note in among all the server up/down messages. Might have been a good idea to start that as a new thread. But thanks - seems to be working fine now.

    Mail Servers

    Don't know if it's the same issue, but tonight 9:45pm PST i was unable to retrieve mail on mail3. Error was "connection refused" on 2 of my domains. Problem seemed to last about 10 or 15 minutes, but now working again.

    SquirrelMail not working

    Just wondering what happened with SquirrelMail. Got calls from several clients tht they can't login. Error msg: Preference file, ../config/./sqdata/(emailaddress).pref, could not be opened. This is a problem because ALL of my cleints use SquirrelMail. I know we can use Horde, but most...

    MIVA Setup

    I just had a query from a client who is interested in building a storefront. From a quick scan of the Miva site, it requires some sort of scripting engine to work. It's also pretty pricey. And since it's not supported here, that rules it out for me. I know there a zillions of e-commerce...

    Thanks, I'll pass this on. I may have some questions before proceeding with this.
