I just downloaded Pure ASP Upload 2.1 and can get it to write to the database (sql) or upload a file, but not both - which was the entire point of purchasing the extension. I followed the tutorial, but no success. Any advice would be MOST helpful.

thanks

What kind of problems/errors do you encounter when using an upload and insert both? Did you already check out the FAQ section.

I don't get an error.
It either posts the data to the db or uploads the file.
It makes no sense...

By the way, thanks for the response. I am trying it again today on a clean page - will post the results.

thanks

My new test was not successful. I followed the tutorial carefully, but the form writes to the database but doesn't upload the file and I get no error messages... Any ideas?

It is strange that you don't get any error. If you have Pure ASP Upload on a page you have to make sure that all Request.Form are replaced with UploadFormRequest. The extension should do this automaticly when the document is saved. Also when you use version 8.02 of dreamweaver you have to make sure that you have the latest version of Pure ASP Upload, there where some mayor changes in the insert record and only the latest version of Pure ASP Upload will work with 8.02.

Patrick,
I checked the page and it appears to be written correctly. I think that the problem lies in the security of our server. It does not allow directory browsing, so when Dreamweaver inserts the include: "<!--#include virtual="/ScriptLibrary/incPureUpload.asp" -->", it gives an error - due to the 'virtual' part of the script and the leading forward slash. When I manually correct this to <!--#include file="ScriptLibrary/incPureUpload.asp" -->
it inserts the record into the database, but does not execute the upload script. The type of path is automatically changed back to relative by DW even though I select absolute when I set everything up in the wizard. With directory browsing disabled, it can't find a relative path. Any ideas? This functionality is critical for our endusers, as it can eliminate a host of end user errors.

thanks for the help.
Jill
