Author Cannot run the FrontPage Server Extensions on this page
kaykayIT

2005-01-03, 5:49 pm

I used the procedure in the File Upload Whitepaper from Microsoft to create a
form on a secure subweb in FP 2002. Orginally the web it was on a Windows
2000 Server with IIS 5.0. We moved the web to a Windows 2003 Server with IIS
6.0. Since then I have had problems with my forms working. This particular
form which is equivalent to the "Process1.asp" form in the whitepaper, gives
me this error "Cannot run the FrontPage Server Extensions on this page". All
the KB articles talk about using the Feedback form (didn't use this) and
Apache web server (we don't have that). Still cannot find the problem.
Please your help is greatly appreciated. I have been working for days on
this problem.

You cannot use features that require the FrontPage Server Extensions on an
ASP page. Make the page a .HTM page and it will work.

Thank you David. However, I changed the pages to htm but I get the same
message except it says: Cannot run the FrontPage Server Extensions on this
page: "https://www.global-construction.com/secure/Employment1.htm". There
must be something else wrong. Please help.

Since I sent this reply I have searched the web for an answer. I have seen
literally hundreds of other pages listed with this same error, mostly html
pages. It seems to be a common problem that so far there is no answer for.

Are the extensions installed on port 443? - required for https working.
The default is to install extensions only on port 80, for http pages.

FYI - your security certificate brings up warnings in IE, and I would not
trust the certificate issuer

You can't use or mix ASP (VBscript) in a Html page
- all your ASP coding is exposed and is not being server side processed

You appear to be attempting to get data from a database but the "database" connection is just to a text file (eform_results.txt),
which probably is in a folder w/o write permissions
- but for what reason is not obvious because you are asking for User input in the form, so you should not be using the connection on
that page (or ASP values in your form)

And you are attempting to send to a html page instead of a ASP page action="Employment2.htm" page
which doesn't exist (but Employment2.asp does exist)

Either
- Remove all the ASP and just use the form to send the results to the .txt file eform_results.txt (in your _private folder which has
write permissions)

- Or use a valid database and ASP for server side processing on a .asp page

Explain what you are really attempting to do (since you are mixing actions)

Thanks so much for all your responses. The pages are setup exactly as the
outlined in this white paper
http://support.microsoft.com/defaul...kb;en-us;288328 which shows
"How to send form results to a database and an e-mail recipient and use the
File Upload component simultaneously". This worked before in IIS 5.0 on a
Windows 2000 server. But when we transferred it to Windows 2003 Server does
not work anymore. The pages that were created are form page(Employment.htm),
a confirmation page(EmployProcess.htm) which redirects to the first .asp
page(Employment1.asp). The first asp page is like a confirmation page. By
clicking Submit on Employment1.asp, you write the information in the form to
the Access database using a custom SQL statement in the second asp
page(Employment2.asp).

And did you redo the permissions for the file upload folder (Files/) according to the same instructions after the move
Employment.htm sends to _private/eform_results.txt

Thank you for your help. Yes I changed the permissions on the /Files folder
to what's specified in the white paper. The form results on Employment.htm
is writing to _private/eform_results.txt. It just does not show the form
results in Employment1.asp as it should.

Hello Stefan, Thank you for your help. I have checked and rechecked my code
and did not find anything out of the way. This code worked on Windows 2000
Server and IIS 5. If it had never worked I can see the code as being the
problem. But there must have been something that happened between the move
to the Windows 2003 Server machine. I am still digging for an answer.

Check all your paths
If I run EmployProcess.htm to get Employment1.asp the error is
Data source name not found and no default driver specified
/secure/Employment1.asp, line 10
- implies the txt db _private/eform_results.txt was not found or the schema for it is missing

The folder "secure" is not apparently not a subweb so the path to _private/eform_results.txt should probably be
.../_private/eform_results.txt (in your root web)

Test each form individually to see which one is breaking the chain w/ and w/o the file upload component
