global.asa not logging

Hello,

can anybody help me? global.asa does not write anything in the logfile.txt. I had the same code working before in another project, so I am kind of at a loss here....

Two things:
1. global.asa is in the wwwroot directory. Is that correct?
2. The logfile.txt exists in the right directory.

Any help is appreciated!!!

START CODE:

<script language="vbscript" runat="server">


Function Session_OnStart ()

Session("IPAddress")=Request.ServerVariables("REMOTE_ADDR")
Session("User")=Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_Host")
Session("Start")= Now ()

end Function


Function Session_OnEnd ()

Set FileSys= CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
'Set logfile= FileSys.GetFile ("c:\inetpub\wwwroot\LogFile.txt")
Set AppendStream= FileSys.OpenTextFile ("c:\inetpub\wwwroot\LogFile.txt",8)
AppendStream.WriteLine Session("IPAddress") & " Start of Session: " & Session("Start")& " Session End: " & Now() & " User: " &_
Session("User") & " SessionID: " & Session.SessionID
AppendStream.Close

End Function

</script>




END CODE

Perhaps you have not defined a web applicaton for your site? global.asa should be in the root folder for the web application, not necessarily \intepub\wwwroot

Hi,

thanks for the answer.

I have a web application and all. At least, all the other webpages are in the same folder and they are running.

Thanks again.

I have discovered a line which is not working:

Set AppendStream= FileSys.OpenTextFile ("c:\inetpub\wwwroot\LogFile.txt",8)

Apparently, the system cannot find, open or whatever, the file. The file exists, however, and in this folder, too.
Do I need any specific rights for II to write to or modify a file??

Thanks for your help.
