  • IIS7 IIS7.5 Classic ASP Error on Server.CreateObject(“MSWC.NextLink”)

    In newer versions of Windows Server and IIS, Windows Server 2008 and forward (Windows Server 2008 RC0 supposedly did include this) and IIS7, IIS7.5 and forward, Server.CreateObject(“MSWC.NextLink”) will not work. The DLL required is not installed into the OS and the line will cause an error. To fix this, you can download the below zip…

  • Dreamweaver support for FTPS does not exist prior to Dreamweaver CS5.5

    I have been battling this one and am annoyed to find that support for FTPS was not included in Dreamweaver until CS5.5 was presented on April 12, 2011. Glad to say I was able to find a note on it. Resources: http://helpx.adobe.com/dreamweaver/using/connect-remote-server.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adobe_Creative_Suite#Creative_Suite_5.5

  • Setting up SmarterMail 8 as a site in IIS7 as apposed to a Service command line

    Setting up SmarterMail 8 as a site in IIS7 as apposed to a Service is rather straight forward.  SmarterTools has this article here: http://portal.smartertools.com/KB/a1485/set-up-smartermail-as-a-site-in-iis-70.aspx I decided to go once step further and make this scripted:   32bit: net stop SMWebSvr sc config SMWebSvr start= disabled %SYSTEMROOT%\System32\inetsrv\appcmd add apppool /name:”SmarterMail” /managedRuntimeVersion:v4.0 /managedPipelineMode:Integrated %SYSTEMROOT%\System32\inetsrv\appcmd set config /section:isapiCgiRestriction…

  • Site Issues

    To all of my readers, as few of you as there may be, I am clearly re working many facets of my site in order to realign it with its intended purpose. I am correcting core underlying issues that have gone unmaintained for too long. Items to expect in the future from this, less buggy…

  • Energy Drink Collection

      I had collected the above drinks, and more at other times, but the above was what had survived (initially).  After a basement water issue, they were pulled out, cleaned and placed as you see here.  As I had too many ‘collections’, this being one of my lesser appreciated ones, I got rid of most…

  • Prevent Truncation for Dynamically Generated T-SQL Results in SSMS

    I have recently run into an issue where I run one script that generated another (T-SQL), and for some reason, some of the output is cut off or truncated in SSMS.  I want to prevent this.  This truncation is caused by the settings below being too low for your case.  Altering these setting will significantly…

  • Compare Two Facebook Users to Find Common Friends

  • Using Cyberduck Version 4.2.1 (9350) with an SSL Connection to FileZilla Server 0.9.37 beta

    So, I have a default (mostly) install of FileZilla Server:   I can connect just fine using FileZilla Client, but not Cyberduck (originally on a Mac, but I replicated the issue on Windows). I kept getting this error: Very useful, obviously, the log on the server only shows this: (000098)1/7/2013 15:49:37 PM – (not logged…

  • Rose Rates: Extra Dessert Delights Gum

    I recently have been made aware of Extra’s new line of gums called Dessert Delights.  I have been quite impressed with all of the flavors I have tried thus far: I was a little surprised to find that one of the flavors I had recently purchased as ‘NEW’ expired the month before I purchased it:…
