TROUBLE SHOOTING

A No Response Error Appears in the Browser

This error message is displayed when the Visual BASIC executable (EXE) specified by VB Bridge cannot be found. Verify that the path specified in the HTML is correct.

Even when the path is correct in the HTML but if the file is protected by Windows NT Security, the same message will also appear.

The Visual BASIC Program Will Not Run

As a rule, executable programs are stored in the IIS scripts directory. Even if the path of the Visual BASIC program specified in the HTML is correct, the same error message can appear when the program file is protected by Windows NT. If the program is stored in another directory on the server, it is necessary to setup execution rights on that directory as well as access rights.

To set program execution rights, go to the IIS Internet Service Manager and change the WWW service settings. By default, program execute permissions are not assigned. This means that even if you call a program, it will not run.

In order to avoid these kinds of problems as well as to protect the programs that you create, we recommend that you store your programs in the IIS scripts directory.
