to see all the paths on your server use:
for each fld in request.servervariables
response.write fld & " = " & request.servervariables(fl
next
you can then read the paths. Or use FName= server.MapPath("WebData.xl

Browse All TopicsDear sir,
i am navice into ASP, i am getting this error when i am trying to access specific asp file.
Server object error 'ASP 0177 : 800401f3'
Server.CreateObject Failed
/domainhost/asp/mgrreportL
in my source the block of code represent for this
Dim Fs,FName,Ex,Row,Cell,HEAD
Row=7
Set Fs=Server.CreateObject("Sc
Set Ex=Server.CreateObject("Ex
FName="WebData.xls" <<------- line 73
FPath="/asp/"
i uploaded my files into a new hosting service they provided a virutal path /www to upload my code and i successfully created a DSN and when i am trying to login into one page with a login and password, i am getting the above error.
i checked the line 74 is pointing to absolute path of my webhosting directory( c:\asp -> FPath="/asp/" ) do i need to replace the directory with my new absolute path? but my new hosting company didnt provide any absolute path except the relative direcotry only (/www <- where should i need to copy my source files). i tried with relative directory like this too ( FPath="/domainhost/asp/" ) but it didnt work.
is there any work around?
thank you for your valuable answers in advance

Hello,
et/
you are trying to run Excel on the server but it fails. Ask your webhosting service if Microsoft Office (or at least Excel) is installed, and if their security settings alows to run it from asp pages.
