Server.CreateObject failed on mailorder.asp when using the encryption.

Question

The following ADO error is given on the mailorder.asp page:

Server object error 'ASP 0177 : 800a004c'
Server.CreateObject Failed
/cactushop/asp/mailorder.asp, line 530

No encrypted mail is sent.

Answer

In CactuShop v4 - 4.100, the temporary folder, where the encrypted orders are temporarily created before being attached to the order email, is hardcoded as the 'database' folder. Since we advise users should rename this folder, or move it to a location off of the http accessible web space, the creation of the encrypted file will fail because the folder does not exist.

To rectify this, search the mailorder.asp page for '../database' and then change this path to a folder with write permissions that does exist. It can either be your renamed database folder, or another folder created just for encryption temp files.
