The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

MSXML problems on Windows Server 2003 SE

Asked by mastallama in Windows 2003 Server, Active Server Pages (ASP), Windows 2000 Server

Tags: 2003, windows, msxml, server

Hey Experts,

I have the following code running perfectly fine on a Windows 2000 Server (yes, I wrote the line numbers here):

13   dim objXML, objLst, noOfCharacters, attr, attr3, attr4, n_attr, k, attr2, rank
14   Set objXML = Server.CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
15   objXML.async = False
16   objXML.Load ("http://www.wowarmory.com/guild-info.xml?r=Thorium+Brotherhood&n=Guardians+of+Destiny")
17  
18   Set objLst = objXML.getElementsByTagName("character")
19   noOfCharacters = objLst.length
20   attr = objXML.documentElement.firstChild.firstChild.firstChild.firstChild.nodeName
21   Set attr3 = objXML.documentElement.childNodes(0).childNodes(0).childNodes(0).childNodes(0)
22   Set attr4 = attr3.attributes
23   n_attr = attr4.length

But, when I moved my website over to a Window Server 2003 SE, I get this error:

Microsoft VBScript runtime  error '800a01a8'

Object required: '[object]'

/guildroster.asp, line 22

Now, if you can wave the idea that there's a problem in the code for just a second, I did try the following:

1   dim objXML, objLst, noOfCharacters, attr, attr3, attr4, n_attr, k, attr2, rank
2   Set objXML = Server.CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
3   objXML.async = False
4   objXML.Load ("http://www.wowarmory.com/guild-info.xml?r=Thorium+Brotherhood&n=Guardians+of+Destiny")
5   Response.Write objXML.nodeName&"<br>"
6   Response.Write objXML.firstChild.nodeName

And got back this error:

#document

Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01a8'

Object required: '[object]'

/test.asp, line 7

The #document was expected but the error on line 7 wasn't.  You can go to http://www.wowarmory.com/guild-info.xml?r=Thorium+Brotherhood&n=Guardians+of+Destiny, right click and view source and see that it has children in the XML document.  When I copied this file to my Win2k server I got the following response:

#document
xml

This is what I expected.

When I inspect the MSXML.DLL files on both server they are of different versions, so I'm thinking that may be the problem, but I can't find any information to back up my theory or to fix it.

Win2K MSXML.DLL Verion: 8.0.6730.0
Win2k3 MSXML.DLL Version: 8.0.7002.0


I don't know what to do, I need the site up on the new server but I don't know what I should change to make it work.

Here's the page on the Win2k server: http://www.jeremysouthard.org/god/guildroster.asp
Here's the page on the Win2k3 server: http://www.guardians-of-destiny.net/guildroster.asp

My test file on Win2K server: http://www.jeremysouthard.org/god/test.asp
My test file on Win2k3 server: http://guardians-of-destiny.net/test.asp

Thanks in advance.
