Can not connect to Visual Source Safe from ASP

MEHDI · Sep 1, 2004

Here is the portion of the asp pages(vb script) that fails:
SrcSafeIni = "F:\Microsoft Visual Studio\VSS\441_VSS\srcsafe.ini"
UserName ="Admin"
Password =""

'On Error Resume Next

Set objVSSDatabase = Server.CreateObject("Sourcesafe")
objVSSDatabase.Open SrcSafeIni,UserName,Password

If Err.Number <> 0 Then
Response.Write "Could Not Connect to the Repository Database"
Response.Write "<BR>"
Response.Write Err.Number & "*****" & Err.Description
Err.Clear

'Response.Write "test"
'Response.Write objVSSDatabase.DatabaseName

End If

The error is :
Error Type:
Microsoft VBScript runtime (0x800A0007)
Out of memory: 'Open'

The same script will work fine if it was adapted and saved as a vbs
file and run by double cliking on it, so this probably means that
something needs to be done to the IIS settings....

Any help will be appreciated.

Thank you

Is F: a mapped drive or local drive?

Tom:
Thank you for your reply.
F: is a local drive and I gave everyone full control on the folder
F:\Microsoft Visual Studio

Thanks

Tom:
I wanted to make sure that the file can be read so I wrote the page
below and it displayed the content of the file F:\Microsoft Visual
Studio\VSS\441_VSS\srcsafe.ini.
So it can get to the file but it can not connect to VSS from the ASP
page but can from a VBS page! IUSR_ has access to VSS.

Dim objFSO
Set objFSO = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

Dim objTextStream

const strFileName = "F:\Microsoft Visual
Studio\VSS\441_VSS\srcsafe.ini"
const fsoForReading = 1

If objFSO.FileExists("F:\Microsoft Visual
Studio\VSS\441_VSS\srcsafe.ini") then
'The file exists, so open it and output its contents
Set objTextStream = objFSO.OpenTextFile(strFileName, fsoForReading)
Response.Write "" & objTextStream.ReadAll & ""
objTextStream.Close
Set objTextStream = Nothing
Else
'The file did not exist
Response.Write strFileName & " was not found."
End If

'Clean up
Set objFSO = Nothing
