Re: ASP and CDONTS

The error is:
error '80070003'
The system cannot find the path specified.

/intranet/hmsys/etest.asp, line 17

The code is:

Dim objCDO
Set objCDO = Server.CreateOb ject("CDONTS.Ne wMail")

' This code assumes the above CDO
'instantiation code is included
objCDO.To = "[changed to protect the innocent]"
objCDO.From = "[changed to protect the innocent]"

Dim txtSubject
txtSubject = "This is an automated notification email from HMSys v2.0.0." &
vbCrLf & "Please do not reply to this address." & vbCrLf & vbCrLf

objCDO.Subject = "HMSys Auto Notification"
objCDO.Body = txtSubject

objCDO.Importan ce = 2 'High importance!
objCDO.Send 'Send off the email!

'Cleanup
Set objCDO = Nothing

The email notifications have been working for about 3 weeks. As of last
night (after the server reset) I get the above error everywhere an email is
supposed to be sent, with the line number pointing to the objCDO.Send line.
The only thing that changes in the above code in other parts of the app is
the body of the message.

two points here - what values have you given to the paths for CDONT?
Since the server was reset (rebooted?), is it possible that these have
been accidentally dropped?

Re: ASP and CDONTS

I don't know what the values were set at. How would I find out? I didn't
actually set up the CDONT. I assumed it had been set up when the server was
set up (before my time with the company). I just tried the code to use it and
it worked so I didn't mess with anything. I suppose it's possible it got lost
from the reboot, but again I don't know how that could happen. Where can I go
to view/update the path for CDONT? Is it a registry setting that can be
changed?

Re: ASP and CDONTS

Ok, I've tried the methods at the following:



When I tried the second one (using adsutil), I get the following errors:

When I just try to view the setting for SMTPsvc/1:
Error trying to enum the object (ObjectGet Failed): SMTPsvc/1

When I try to use the set command:
The path requested could not be found.
Error trying to get the object: SMTPsvc/1

I also tried using CDO instead of CDONTS. That didn't work at all. I REALLY
need this working soon. Help is MUCH appreciated.

Thanks.

Re: ASP and CDONTS

Uninstall SMTP on your machine. I've heard that you'll get this error if you
choose a non-default location during install. You could always use JMail,
that's what we're using here, and it's free. There are several others.
