Repost:Problem with cab download

J

Jacques

I have an asp file that contains the following tag:

<OBJECT classid="clsid:11111111-1111-1111-1111-111111111111"
CODEBASE="mycab.cab#version=5,0,0,3"/>

the cab in question has the following .inf

[version]
signature="$CHICAGO$"
AdvancedINF=2.0

[Add.Code]
MyDLL.DLL=MyDLL.DLL

[BkmVisVersao.DLL]
clsid={11111111-1111-1111-1111-111111111111}
FileVersion=5,0,0,3
hook=hook1

[Setup Hooks]
hook1=hook1

[hook1]
run=%EXTRACT_DIR%\setup.exe INST

the classid in the .inf is the classid for mydll.dll and the setup registers
mydll.dll

The problems are:
1) the cab is *always* downloaded and the setup is always fired
2) the next time i enter the site I need to wait a few seconds that seems to
be longer then the time needed to download the .cab (i'm testing in my
intranet and the cab is not that big 11M)


Why I'm being requested to install it every time ?
Can I remove the [Setup Hooks] Section ?

More info:
In some machine the time taken to load the site is normal. In others the
cab i snot (always) requested.

Thanks in advance,
Jacques

It's not an asp issue as the behavior is the same if I change the page
to html but I'll try anyway

I suggest that you try posting this query to an ASP specialist NG -
microsoft.public.inetserver.asp.general
may work better?
