I think it is a permission problem. VB6 &amp;&nbsp;VBS have the permissions of the person who run them. <br />
IIS has a special user account : IUSR_&lt;computer name&gt; <br />

Doesn't &quot;Everyone&quot; group contain IUSR_&lt;computername&gt; user as a member? I would think so. And I assigned &quot;full control&quot; of the root directory to &quot;Everyone&quot;.

I have moved an old website from NT4 server to W2K server and the following line of code consistently fails to work:<br />
<br />
set a = fs.CreateTextFile(&quot;C:\Logf<wbr />ile.log&quot;, True)<br />
<br />
Interestingly, it works in a VB6 program and also in a standalone VBS file, which means (I suppose) that permissions are right. Looks like IIS5 does not let me write to the disk. Settings are for write access. Any suggestions?<br />

FileSystemObject fails under W2K

Active Server Pages (ASP) is Microsoft’s first server-side engine for dynamic web pages. ASP’s support of the Component Object Model (COM) enables it to access and use compiled libraries such as DLLs. It has been superseded by ASP.NET, but will be supported by Internet Information Services (IIS) through at least 2022.
