vb script/ asp/net question - narrwing down the problem

Guest

Ok, here is the situation. I have some vb code that was upgraded to the
earliest asp, I believe. When i run this snippet of code below on my local
xp box with iis and visual studio 2003 installed, it runs just fine... when i
run it on my w2k3 box with iis and asp.net 1.1 and 2.0 installed, but only
1.1 active now because of the aspnet_regiis -i command that was run in the
v1.1.4 folder, i get the error below the code:

Code

Error when run on my iis server:

Source File: C:\Old mba db sourcefiles\GT\default.aspx Line: 27

Interestingly enough, if i remove the line that references the gbdevelopment
variable the page loads just fine. So somehow, it does not seem to recognize
the file that has all of the Global variables described. Is there something
in the syntax of the import command that may have changed from the asp.net
environment to the 1.14 environment....

now upon further reading, i can provide some more context.......
Here is what my global.asax file contains

<%@ Application Codebehind="Global.asax.vb" Inherits="GT.Global" %>

below is some of the code from the default.aspx file. My global.asax file
is inside of the virtual root folder with the rest of the .aspx files. I do
not understand why default.aspx is not referencing the global class where all
of my public variables and public constants are defined. I am PERPLEXED

Final solution that seemed to work:

Ok, the quick rundown



Fixed the ldap references In the code

Replaced the username and passwords for accounts in our domain (Remember
this code came from a separate company)

Installed Oracle Client software on Server

Installed Oracle OLE DB connectivity software (ODAC) from Oracle’s website.
This seemed to resolve the error I got in regards to the Oracle Client not
being found

Finally, the account used to access the database did not have the right to
view specific tables. It could see the list of tables, but not specific
tables.

My DBA had to create synonyms for the account used to access the database to
mimic the account that had ownership of the tables in the database.





At this point, I can now connect, perform queries on the tables, etc ,etc..



Wallah, thanks for the journey,

Thanks for all of your help
