Beginner Question.

[TonyJeffs]

I've just started to try and understand ASP.
ASP doesn't work when I upload to my NTL webspace, so I signed up for
free AST enabled webspace at:

http://www.1asphost.com

This works fine with simple ASP "hello world" code:

............... ............... ...
<%
response.write( "Hello World!")
%>
............... ............... ..


But when I try this

............... ............... .
<%
Dim objFSO
Set objFSO = Server.CreateOb ject("Scripting .FileSystemObje ct")
Set objFSO = Nothing
%>
............... ............... ....

It gives this error:
............... ............... ............... .........
Server object error 'ASP 0177 : 800401f3'
Server.CreateOb ject Failed
/tonyjeffs2/test/test4.asp, line 8
Invalid ProgID. For additional information specific to this message
please visit the Microsoft Online Support site located at:
http://www.microsoft.com/contentredirect.asp.
............... ............... ............... ......

Reading the microsoft site, I get the idea that it is the way the
server is set up, rather than my code. Is that correct?

Thanks
Tony

Re: Beginner Question.

have you asked the host?
Sounds like you dont have permissions to the FSO objects

You can't do it with that host. Have you tried brinkster? I think you can do
it with that.

If great price is what you're after you may want to look into
www.best-machine.com where currently for $4.50/mo total you can set up 5
