Hello,

I have a script which simply renames the file in the file system, which has been working for some time on another XP machine running IIS 5.1. I've done the following to try and get the CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") to work on my asp page running on this new instance of Win XP Pro/IIS 5.1:

1. installed Windows Scripting 5.6 for XP
2. set a folder exclusion for NAV for the particular folder
3. allowed folder sharing/permissions for "IUSR" and "Everyone"
4. Set IIS permissions (anonymous access for IUSR)

I've rebooted, so am I missing something? The CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") won't even fire, which I've confirmed with trying to response.write the filename, etc. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Buster
 
Scripting.FileSystemObject uses a dll called scrrun.dll

Make sure this dll exists and that it is properly registered.
