Hello All,
I have a windows hosting account with Godaddy.com and I cannot seem to find an asp script that will allow me to place an upload form on my site. Upon contacting godaddy about it, they said it was not possible. I know this is not true and was wondering if anyone had any advice. Also I know Save Doesnt Work So i must be able to use SaveVirtual.

Thank you very much for your help

I have a couple of clients with gddy. I get nowhere with their support. I tell my clients, "Don't renew, get a new hosting company." If you want to run a reputable site, its not worth it...

Try this post for some info for your question

Thanks for the reply Chip, I honestly only really use gddy for bandwidth. I host videos for some friends myspace videos, and i wanted an easy way for them to upload them. I went with gddy for the price of hosting.

That link doesnt really work, they were trying to make a form that emailed also and had no success thus far.

Thanks
-Eric

I might be able to give you a script, what hosting package do you have?

Are you stuck with the windows format? Upload as a php file works fine on the linux version of godaddy.

Have you tried a 'Pure ASP Upload' script? (Search google)
These are scripts that handle ASP Uploads but don't require any messing about on the server.
If you can, switch to ASP.NET - uploading is built in and can be done in just a few lines of code.

I got it working with aspupload, Thanks guys.

How do you fix this problem?

I had same problem.... However, I solved the problem.
Anybody didn't say that there are two requirements...

Firstly, you have to make custom directories which has writing permission.
- 1. Open hostong manager
- 2. Contents > Directory Management
- 3. Create directiry (Select read and write permissions)
e.g) upload_directory

Secondly, use 'Upload.SaveVirtual "/upload_directory/"' in your script.

* Good luck
