Okay, evolters, I could use some help.
A developer I work with is creating an ASP web application that by
necessity creates some files during a user's session. We want to delete
these files when the session ends. Currently, his code looks like:
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="VBScript" RUNAT="Server">
Sub Session_OnStart
Set Session("FSOMain") = Server.CreateObject
("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
End Sub
Sub Session_OnEnd
Session("FSOMain").DeleteFolder "C:\InetPub\wwwroot\Leads
Site\printdocs\Ahoy"
Session("FSOMain").DeleteFile "C:\InetPub\wwwroot\Leads
Site\printdocs\smalllabel.rtf"
End Sub
The paths are of course hard-coded for our test case. The problem is that
it just doesn't work. When session.Abandon is called, the session ends;
files are still there.
However, if the code is cut and pasted into an intermediate file
(delPage.asp), it works just duckily.
Any ideas, oh mighty ASP warriors?
