Uploading Stupid Videos

Angel watches many videos on Stupid Videos. The site seems to be very popular. For this reason, I was a little shocked when I received the following email:

I just tried uploading a video on stupidvideos.com

And it gave me this error message:

“Upload Without COM 3.0 error ‘8004000b’

Not enough free space available.[Need help? Contact Lewis Moten,
lewis@moten.com, http://www.lewismoten.com]

/include/clsField.asp, line 431″

It looks like the folks over at Stupid Videos ran out of disk space by the looks of this message.

I’ve uploaded many scripts over the years to an open-source community on the internet called Planet Source Code. The third generation of my upload files without COM script for ASP has been a contest winner and very popular. It brings a warm feeling in my heart to see that well known sites are picking up on the script as well.

    Wow! Nice having your code used by a well known site such as that. I guess that explains why there hasn’t been any new videos over the weekend!

    Hi Lewie,

    Your scripts are awesome! I’ve managed to put your upload script to our small webpage on a Windows 2000 server with IIS 5. Just got a small problem, and maybe you can help me out. I’m upgrading to Win2K3 server and IIS6, but when I tried putting it in, I’m geting this error msg…

    Would you be able to help me out how I can fix this?

    Regards!

    I didn’t spell the attribute correctly. It should be “enctype”. Also, Windows Server 2003 is locked down with a lot of security with the default install. You may need to check to see if it will allow binary uploads or has a limit to the size of those uploads.

    First let me say that I really appreciate your work, I’ve found many of your references useful! I’m trying to upload a document to a database via the code you posted on http://www.asp101.com/articles/jacob/scriptupload.asp. I’m able to upload the file, but I’m also trying to write some other info to the database using a request.form and receive the following error:

    “Request object error ‘ASP 0206 : 80004005′
    Cannot call BinaryRead
    /clsUpload.asp, line 85
    Cannot call BinaryRead after using Request.Form collection. ”
    Is it possible to upload additional information into different fields in the database from the same form as the file upload?

    Thanks for the input!

    Hi Lewie,

    I use your code to upload files.

    I’m to change my pages from ISO-8859-1 to UTF-8 (to be able to add Japanese characters).

    In My formular, addinfoform.asp

    ADD Info

    Title :

    And my page to receive the data, addinfo.asp :

    DIGIMIND test


    %>

    If I want to add a title with any character with accent (in French, by example: éèçà), in my result page, I have tttt.

    Have you any idea how to recover my data in UTF-8?

    Thank you for your help.

    PS : Sorry for my English, but I’m French and I’m difficult in English.

    Hi Lewis,

    This is re an asp script for file upload that you wrote back in 2002.
    I have tried surfing the internet for a solution but can not find what I am looking for.

    I want to use your script to upload a file to the server. I cannot make this work as I want only one asp page, that I can activate from Flash passing on information re file name.

    I have pasted all upload script into the file ToFileSystem.asp. This awaits information from the DEMO.asp file where user manually has to select the file ot be uploaded. Works perfect.

    Now ToFileSystem.asp should be able to handle variable information as to the file to be uploaded ie. name_of_file_to_upload = request(”file_name_from_flash”) . Thus I can delete the DEMO.asp as that part is handled in my flash application.

    The file name of file to be uploaded should, in the ToFileSystem.asp, be a variable that I can work with. I can not find out how to write this in your file.

    I would appreciate your help and time alot as I am very stuck with my problem here.
    You are of course welcome to send me a mail if you need further info or maybe the files.

    Best regards
