upload form

[Joe]

hello,

I am having an aweful time with an upload form I keep
getting the FP error.

I created it like this
Insert>form>File upload

Then I was prompted for destination folder I selected
_private I then r-clicked and allowed anon. upload to
this directory and then gave it a whirl. Well no dice.

I have nightmares about FP errors it seems that is all the
extensions are good for.

FP 2003 version
FPSE 2002
OS Server 2003 Enterprise

Any help would be very satisfying
Thanks
Joe

Hi Joe,

I have never set one of these up, but you will need a Windows server as well as the FP2002 extensions.

I don't believe this will work with a _private folder, as you will need anonymous permission for uploading. In addition, I think the host must allow this type of file upload.

Here is a tutorial that should help ...

Hello Mike and thank you for your reply,

I was successful in doing so but you cannot let the
anonymous upload and I am using Server 2003. I tried
everything and everykind of permission available. I also
created its own folder in FP called "Upload folder" and
right clicked on it, properties and then allow anaonymous
upload. This sometimes works but FPSE has a mind of it's
own. I have it working now but under an OWS admin account
and a user machine account. I think this is about the best
I can do? The rediculous part is I did this at least twice
before and I just created a subweb and the upload form was
the default.htm and the folder was _private I used
a "user" machine account and unchecked the anon. access in
IIS manager for this file. It worked great. I am not sure
if the FPSE's are messed up? My contact forms work like a
charm

If you have anyfurther suggestions for trying a permission
config or can figure out how to get the anon. access for
the folder please let me know.My brain is permission
fried.
Thanks Very much
Joe
