Hi, this is surly great.
Thanks for making Webpost ASP compatible.
And great to see that you are Danish too

Im new to Teamspeak, and indeed also webpost. So ive got some problems.
Im missing some guidelines in your version. A manual of some kind.

Here is what i have done so far.
Ive installed the files on my server, and the only thing i have changed, is the adress to the db.

Now when entering the site, index.asp, only the graphics and your logo apears, and nothing else. No errors or data.

Is there something else i need to do ?
What about the ip and such where Teamspeak is hosted ?

Hope you have time to help a newbie in this area.
Thanks

Hi, you need to go to your servers ini file and look for POSTURL= You need to point your POSTURL= to your Webpost script like this.

POSTURL=http://www.<YOURSITE>.com/WebPost/webpost.asp

That directs your servers data to the webpost script. Hope this helps.

I got problems.
Could you mabye help me with this ?

Yesterday, when i got the scrip working, all was fine for an hour or so.
Then suddenly i get this error, when pressing "details" :

Active Server Pages error 'ASP 0113'
Script timed out
/mysite/teamspeak/index.asp
The maximum amount of time for a script to execute was exceeded. You can change this limit by specifying a new value for the property Server.ScriptTimeout or by changing the value in the IIS administration tools.

Does that make any sense to you ?
Today, it still comes with this error.
Ive tried to emty the db, to start over, but still the same problem.
I have no control over the server, it is hosted else where.
Any ideas anyone ?

Oh yes, the first page with the overview is ok, only when going to the details page.

Thanks
Butte

I know of cource what the "time out" means, but WHY do i get it ?
Could it be an infinite loop in the code? or a left out recordset.MoveNext or something ?
Any suggestions ?

Butte · #8 06-11-2002, 21:06

I got it

It was the firewall on the host's machine

Bigman · #9 16-12-2002, 22:03

Good script :-)

The only problem i have is that, i have added the address to the posturl to access webpost.asp but it still wont show on my page.

Need help,

Cheers

Sry that I havent been arround to answer your questions.
If you need quick answers, then the best way to get them are by sending a mail. I havent got time at the moment to brows different forums to answer questions (sry again). However by "throwing" a mail with the subject WebPost ASP i cant ignore it

---------------
To Bigman :
The Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (0x80004005) Error you get are caused by a wrong/incorrect path to the database (could be a misspell).
The timeout you get could be created if the server doesn't support w3 sockets, or something like that.
---------------
A better guide?
Well as time isn't a thing i've got a lot of the new "manual" isn't that well descriped, but it contain some of the issues from this forum. I have attached it to this messages in form of a txt file.

I was unable to get this script to work.

It appears that the database is not being written to.

I have W3 Sockets installed.

I have the teamspeak server.ini edited, so that PostURL=http://www.iron-hq.com/ts2/webpost.asp

And I have rebooted both the TS2 server and the IIS server.

I even created a MSSQL database and did a proper connection string to that, and it was never populated.

It just seems like TS2 is not sending out the GET command every 5 minutes or so - therefore webpost.asp is never being touched and the script to populate the DB is never being run.

Here is my exact TS server.ini

Code:

Any one have any idea's? please!

I have copied the script files to the folder on the server, I have installed the w3 Sockets succecfully and have changed the PostURL= in my server.ini.
The page comes up blank as you can see in the link above.
Any insight will be hugely appreciated!

IRON_Sniper · #13 21-12-2002, 06:38

Yup, I'm getting the same exact thing. Either there is some sort of security setting not mentioned that must be done to IIS, or the W3 component isn't working correctly.

I'm going to dig into it some more and see if I can come up with some ASP alternatives.

badbrainz · #14 21-12-2002, 09:15

Well, I got the server to show up in the list, so I imagine the w3Sockets are working correctly, but im still not sure about our index.asp.
I believe there is supposed to me something more to the webfront than just those teamspeak logos. Im not sure , but isnt it supposed to be showing the different channels on your server and possibly how many people are on. Statistics maybe?

Please any insight?

Thank you in advance and after!!

heres our Index: http://blackdogs.servegame.com/TS2/index.asp

***EDIT****
As you can see now , our index.asp is not just blank anymore, but its not working properly.
Its seems that everyone is going with the PHP. Is there anyone that has an example of a working "index.asp" ?
