BinaryWrite -- works on one server and not the other

[jpeyer]

I have some code that boils down to this:

strFileName = "D:\pdf\original_docs\1234.pdf"
Response.ContentType = "application/pdf"
set objBinaryFile = Server.CreateObject("BinaryFileStream.Object&quot
Response.BinaryWrite objBinaryFile.GetFileBytes(CStr(strFileName))
set objBinaryFile = nothing

It works GREAT as expected on one server... but we are migrating over to a new server and it is a no-go. (both servers are same version of IIS [5], same service packs, etc. -- but SOMETHING is obviously different)

File paths are correct, so other than that, what could be preventing this from working?

Thanks,
Jeremy

Oh yeah, I'm getting a generic 500

In the browser click Tools, Internet Options, Advanced tab, scroll down slightly and deselect 'Show Friendly HTTP Error Messages'
Run the page again and see what the real error is. First guess is permissions, does the IUSR account have read permissions on the folder?
