Web development can be a daunting task, even for specialists. There is a lot of information to absorb and a lot of technologies to learn in order to manage a superior website. When trying to learn the ropes, developers need a reliable source to introduce new ideas that can be easily implemented. When working on large projects, even web veterans may run into a technology or an aspect of a technology that they are unfamiliar with.

CopyFile not working...
I have a website on a Godaddy shared hosting account. On a page I have this code

Code:
<% 
dim filesys
set filesys=CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
source = Server.mapPath("../images/local-directory/temp.jpg") 
destination = Server.mapPath("../images/local-directory/21") 
If filesys.FileExists(source) Then

filesys.CopyFile(source, destination)

End If
%>


If open this page I get a Server 500 error. If I remove the filesys.CopyFile from within the If statement and put a redirect instead it works, telling me the file does exist. But not sure the right syntax for the CopyFile

Does godaddy provide the filesystem object? A lot of hosts used to block the fso because of security concerns.

Somewhere in the msdn library scripting documentation is the reference documentation for the filesystem object.

I believe that Godaddy does support fso as I have this code that works and creates directories.
Code:
Set objFSO = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
folder = Server.mapPath("../../shops") & "/" & session("owner") & "/" & Session("directory") 
objFSO.CreateFolder(folder)
folder = Server.mapPath("../../shops") & "/" & session("owner") & "/" & Session("directory")& "/thumbs" 
objFSO.CreateFolder(folder)
Set objFSO = Nothing

If it helps here's the reference for the CopyFile method

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/lib...v=vs.84%29.aspx

Also turn off show friendly http errors in your browser and see if you then get the actual error message. And check that your web server has write permission to the target directory.

Hello Doug, I was able to see the actual error message:


Microsoft VBScript runtime
error '800a0046'
Permission denied
/mydomain.com/copy.asp, line 26


I logged into GoDaddy's hosting control panel and set permissions on the directory in question but still get this error. Any thoughts?
