Enable IIS to run 32-bit applications on 64-bit Windows

In Microsoft Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard x64 Edition(or any 64bit Windows)…connecting MS Access to ASP pages…by using following code<scripting language used is javascript>:
cn= Server.CreateObject(“ADODB.Connection”);
cn.ConnectionString=”DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; DBQ= “+ Server.MapPath(“any.mdb”)
cn.Open;

gives error:
ADODB.Connection error ‘800a0ea9′
Provider is not specified and there is no designated default provider

As the MS Access driver is 32bit…and is being accessed by 64bit windows..
This error can be solved by:
1.Opening  command prompt and navigating to the directory %systemdrive%\Inetpub\AdminScripts
2.Typing:
cscript.exe adsutil.vbs set W3SVC/AppPools/Enable32BitAppOnWin64 true

Done!!

 

Port Forwarding–configure modem for virtual server

All Modems have different settings but I have done this configuration for BSNL and Airtel modems successfully.There was not much of a difference.

Here I m giving the procedure for Airtel modem.

Type in browser default gateway address(type in cmd,ipconfig).eg.192.168.1.1/main.html
it will ask for username–type admin(majority has this only)
password–type password(or admin or anyother default …ask the concerned person).

Here is the list for default username,passwords of common routers

Now navigate to virtual server as shown here.Now click on add,and enter details as here(here server ip address is internal ip address),Save,Apply.

 

Make PC a Server(Run website or Share files)

NOTE:Keeping up our PC as a server has few hurdles:
*If our Internet connection has dynamic ip address (i.e. each time modem is restarted…IP address changes),server address changes.
*Due to bandwidth limit,only few people can download files(though accessing of web pages can be done easily).

To overcome the 1st hurdle,use domain name from free dynamic domains(eg. http://dyndns.com,while entering details type external ipaddress as obtained from http://cmyip.com)It will give a domain name (eg. server.homeftp.org).Download and install DynDN Updater(allows to connect ur pc directly to its server)

Download and install Apache web server from http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi(.msi for Windows,.tar.gz..for Linux or Unix).

During installation in Windows:
In Network domain:enter domain name obtained(eg. server.homeftp.org)
In server name:Enter same as above with www(eg. www.server.homeftp.org)
Administrative email:any email id
Now,leave all fields recommended and default,install it.
Start apache web server(firewall gives warning…unblock it).
In the browser type http://localhost.If success page comes up,then installation is correct.
Now browse through C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\conf open httpd.conf using notepad, (# shows- lines are commented) find string,DocumentRoot change path to the directory whose files u want to share or keep web pages.(eg. D:\web\ ,default is C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs).Now find a line (# This should be changed to whatever you set DocumentRoot to)below it change path of Directory to same as that of DocumentRoot.
Now create a file index.html inside the DocumentRoot(eg. D:\web\).And keep all files,folders inside that to share or the web files for the website.
To view the logs go to:C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\logs.
Now to make it work across the world over internet.We have to configure the modem,to do a Virtual Servers Setup.
Now open cmd from run,type ipconfig: it will give internal ip (eg. 192.168.1.2). Type this internal ip in browser.we can see our server running over LAN. Now,note down external ip from http://cmyip.com.To test is it really working,from any other computer(not on that LAN),type external ip u noted or domain name registered, in the browser.
Done!!
Is it??
Post ur experience.

Basics of Web Development?

Earlier I posted about PHP in WAMP.

The ques. is whats all about web scripting and all?

>Web Development can be split into many areas and a typical and basic web development hierarchy might consist of:

• Client Side Coding
  • CSS
  • XHTML (HTML+XML)
  • Javascript
  • Flash
  • Silverlight

• Server Side Coding
  • PHP and MySQL
  • ASP and MSSQL
  • ASP.NET and MSSQL
  • CGI and/or Perl
  • Java, e.g. J2EE or WebObjects
  • Python, e.g. Django (web framework)
  • Ruby, e.g. Ruby on Rails
  • ColdFusion
  • Lotus Domino

Web Application Frameworks/Environments:

Client side:ActionScript,Javascript,Java

ASP.NET is a web application framework marketed by Microsoft that progammers can use to build dynamic web sites,applications and XML, web services. It is part of Microsoft’s .NET platform and is the successor to Microsoft’s Active Server Pages (ASP) technology. ASP.NET is built on the Common Language runtime, allowing programmers to write ASP.NET code using any Microsoft .NET language.

JavaServer Pages is a Java technology that allows softwae developers to dynamically generate HTML, XML or other types of documents in response to a Web client request. The technology allows Java code and certain pre-defined actions to be embedded into static content.

>PHP:<June 1995>

is a reflective computer PL originally designed for producing dynamic webpages.PHP is used mainly in server side scrpting, but can be used from a CLI or in standalone gaphical applications.. PHP is a recursive intialism for PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor.

-Ruby on Rails ==July 2004.
is a fee web application framework. It aims to increase the speed and ease with which database-driven web sites can be created, and offers skeleton code frameworks from the outset. Often shortened to Rails, or RoR, Ruby on Rails is an open source project written in the Ruby programming language, and applications using the Rails framework are developed using the Model View Controller design paradigm.
