Re: wodSFTP send file to other server (General questions)

Hi,

I just ran into this problem today (I think... we are using the wod API from within another COM object that is called via CreateObject from ASP page) also and it drove me nuts because I thought it was something I was doing wrong!

So I need to verify that in order to use the DEMO version of wodFTPDlx in ASP page we can't use the standard IUSR_COMPUTERNAME account in IIS but must use an administrator account (or add the IUSR_COMPUTERNAME account to administrators group).

We absolutely can't ship a product that requires IIS to run in admin mode because of the HUGE security hole this opens up. [:uhoh:]

So PLEASE verify that the this issue will go away (ex. can use the regular IUSR_COMPUTERNAME account that has only guest access) in the full (licensed) version!!

We simply cannot use your product unless we can leave the default IIS config alone (ex. using the default IUSR_COMPUTERNAME with guest access).

FYI, in my case the connect() method was failing (I would hear the little chime but then the connect() would throw an exception after a while). Once I set IIS to use the admin account everything worked fine.

Thanks a bunch,
Tim

Venkat,

this is defenetely permissions problem. IIS is unable to read registry entry to check license key. Can you please double-check this, and go through steps explained in

'Getting started in ASP'
http://www.weonlydo.com/SFTP/Help/GettingStarted_ASP.html

If you're not sure, try to create file from your ASP page and check who is the owner of the file later on from your explorer.

If problem persists, let me know, we'll figure something out.

Best regards,
Kreso
