Every time when I publish site on server, Front Page 2002 keeps changing my Sales Cart global.asa file adding something. Therefore I need to manually edit global.asa on the live server, in order for Sales Cart to work. Is this Front Page bug? How can I resolve this?

Thank you,
Jason

Jason,

You could try FTP through windows- this works every time

See KB http://support.salescart.com/kb/KB-details.asp?key=5483

TWO Ways:
1) Comment out the FrontPage line as the KB suggests which will permanently fool FrontPage...it rewrites the code but doesn't seem to recognize that the call to the sub is commented out

, or

2) Make your username a space.

3) Also, I believe if you give your database a username and password and encrypt it, which is a good idea, then it seems to bypass the FrontPage code as well.

Hi Mike,

Thank you for your help. I really appreciate it. Is there any way that you could show exactly how the global.asa file should look in order to �fool� Front Page. I�ve seen the above mentioned thread but I wasn�t sure what I need to remove from global.asa.

Thank you!
Jason

Hard to show you that here....because when you write code it gets interpreted as html....but basically its just a commented out line. Search for the first occurance of FrontPage_ConvertFromODBC and put a single apostrophy in front of it.
