ASP request.servervariables() not supported?

[mfisher]

I'm trying to troubleshoot an ASP problem under the HS webserver and found that request.servervariables() does not return anything. It also does not error out.

I can access all of the server vars under IIS but not under HS.

Can anyone shed any light on how to access these under the HS webserver?

These work in aspx pages but the not older asp pages. They never have as as far as I can remember.

There are _some_ server variables supported, even back in HS 1.6/1.7 and current ASP pages as well.

Do a for each loop to go through all the supported server variables, display what they return, and see if what you want is supported in a useful way.

I've been using ASP server variables since I first starting using HS so many years ago. I haven't used it much with .aspx, so it makes me happy to see the aspx supports them.

Unzip the attached .asp and .aspx pages into your html folder. Invoke both from a browser and you'll see which are supported.

Hope this helps...

Thanks for the comments everyone. I guess I should have been more specific by including which server vars I need...

I'm needing to see the raw request made to my page along with the included data and need either "ALL_RAW" or "ALL_HTTP."

Unfortunately for me, it appears that the HS ASP server only provides the following three:
AUTH_USER
PATH_INFO
REMOTE_ADDR

and does not return any of these:
ALL_RAW
HTTP_USER_AGENT
ALL_HTTP
APPL_MD_PATH
APPL_PHYSICAL_PATH
AUTH_PASSWORD
AUTH_TYPE
CERT_COOKIE
CERT_FLAGS
CERT_ISSUER
CERT_KEYSIZE
CERT_SECRETKEYSIZE
CERT_SERIALNUMBER
CERT_SERVER_ISSUER
CERT_SERVER_SUBJECT
CERT_SUBJECT
CONTENT_LENGTH
CONTENT_TYPE
GATEWAY_INTERFACE
HTTPS
HTTPS_KEYSIZE
HTTPS_SECRETKEYSIZE
HTTPS_SERVER_ISSUER
HTTPS_SERVER_SUBJECT
INSTANCE_ID
INSTANCE_META_PATH
LOCAL_ADDR
LOGON_USER
PATH_TRANSLATED
QUERY_STRING
REMOTE_HOST
REMOTE_USER
REQUEST_METHOD
SCRIPT_NAME
SERVER_NAME
SERVER_PORT
SERVER_PORT_SECURE
SERVER_PROTOCOL
SERVER_SOFTWARE
URL
HTTP_CONNECTION
HTTP_ACCEPT
HTTP_ACCEPT_ENCODING
HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE
HTTP_HOST
HTTP_REFERER

Anyone have any ideas on how to have a look at the raw request data from a post without using the server vars?

the .aspx code I posted will return ALL_RAW and ALL_HTTP - is there a reason you need pure .ASP instead of .ASPX?

The 1K+ lines of code are ASP and I'm tired of waiting for ASPX pages to compile every time before being displayed. (Yes, I know they can be precompiled.)
Thanks for the pointers, I do appreciate it!

Have you thought about using IIS to serve the pages?

ah - good point - there is a little setup involved. I want to say that user Jon00 has a utility that keeps an ASP and/or ASPX page compiled for faster load times. You might search around and see if you can find it.

Thanks!

Rupp: thanks, but all I wanted to do was troubleshoot an ASP page that had been working but started having a little issue. I had hoped that the HS server would supply at least some of the basic server vars, but it does not.

rmasonjr: yep, I looked into Jon00's ASPX keep-alive script and in the end decided that I didn't need another band-aid on HS and have kind of given up on ASPX under HS for now.

All: issue resolved the hard way - lots & lots of debug messages sprinkled throughout the code...

Thanks for your input!
