Problem with uploading

Hello,
I'm testing various scripts to upload files to a remote server with ASP. I often get the error

Server object error 'ASP 0177 : 800401f3'

Server.CreateObject Failed


where the line causing problem is

set fso = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.Filesystemobject")

I have problems with this filesystemobject and I don't know how to deal with it.
Could you give me some advice?
 
Do you often get it or do you always get it? Often implies it works sometimes, always implies it doesn't work at all.
 
Yes my fault in the explanation.
As I tried various script, I suppose that they use different components so the line can be Server.CreateObject("Scripting.Filesystemobject") or
Server.CreateObject("something else"). But as I don't have particular components I suppose that I should stick with the script that use filesystemobject, but there's still something missing...
 
Ok, I changed web hosting and now there's no problem with writing permissions, I can write everywhere and FSO works fine.
 
So your web host had a problem with their ASP and your code was fine?

Thanks for posting the followup message.

Yatta!
 
I couldn't make it work with titanichost but worked with 7host07.

You're welcome.

:)
