Hello,

I would like to find the virtual directory name from within
Application_onStart in global.asa.
I am in ASP, not ASPX. I have no server.AppPath.

Thanks for your help.

François.

will give you all the server variables, and the one you want, IIRC, is
APPL_PHYSICAL_PATH

The Request object is not available in Application_onStart. And I must
process the virtual dir name in Application_onStart before any client has a
chance to connect to my server.

Thanks.

You have 2 choices that I can see.

1. hardcode the virtual directory name in global.asa or in a settings file
that global.asa can read.
2. get the virtual directory name in the session_onstart subroutine on the
first request from the first client.
