Hi
We are running ISP Spamfilter v4.0.1.783 in Standard Mode
I am trying to setup webinterface, because we have 10-15 users who are not happy for not having control of their filter. the rest are very happy with how it is.
 
I have downloaded it and set up db-connect.asp so I get a logon box with e-mail and password. I then went into mysql table tblLogins and created one user and password.
I now logon with that email and password and redirected to Listspam.asp, but the page can not be shown: THE PAGE CAN NOT BE DISPLAYED.
Is there any additional settings I have do to?
Is there any litterature I can read?
As said, I am using mysql and asp and I have downloaded the web interface packet from download
 
Kind Regards
Morten

Morten,
 
Quick question ... Is the "db-connect.asp" also being properly pointed to from the "listspam.asp" page?

Morten,

It's possible you don't have your browser configured to display the "real" error Internet Explorer is experiencing, but rather a generic error message.
You can change this by going (in Internet Explorer) to Tools - internet Options - Advanced and unchecking the "Show friendly HTTP error messages". This should reveal the real problem.

Hi

Thanks to the two of you.

I think you are onto something.
Will check it out, then remove friendly error messages and see what I get.

Thanks so far :)

 

Kind Regards

Morten

OK. Got a little futher.
I did remove friendly HTML in my browser and I now get the following error:
........................................................................................................................
  • Error Type:
    Microsoft VBScript runtime (0x800A01A8)
    Object required: 'con'
    /SpamFilterWeb/classicasp/authenticate.asp, line 24
  • Browser Type:
    Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; InfoPath.2)

  • Page:
    POST 47 bytes to /SpamFilterWeb/classicasp/ListSpam.asp

    • ...........................................................................................................................

    So I checked authenticate.asp (not done anyting with it) line 24 and it says:

       'Generate query.
       SQL = "SELECT Password "
       SQL = SQL & "FROM tblLogins "
       SQL = SQL & "WHERE EMail = '" & EmailTo & "'"
       Set rs = con.Execute(SQL)  --> LINE 24
       Failure = False

    NOt sure what I have to change here. First I am not using SQL but MYSQL
    Can anyone give me an explenation? I know little about programming so any help world be great. I am using a UDL file in db_connect.asp called SpamfilterMysql.udl and that is connecting OK
     
    Anyone any idears?
    Kind Regards

    Morten,

    The file "Authenticate.asp" includes the file "db_connect.asp". The first line in your authenticate.asp should read:

    <!--#include file="db_connect.asp"-->     

    If this is so, can you please double-check that in your db_connect.asp you have modified the line:

         con.Open "File Name=d:\www\Databases\SpamFilter.udl"

    so that it points to a valid .UDL file on your web server, and that the directory containing that file allows the IUSR_machinename account Read access?

    Hi again
    Thank you so much for your help.
     
    I now fount out what the problem was.
     
    When I installed ISP spamfilter first time it did install some of the files for the webaccess.
    Among the files where db_connect.asp
     
    As I did not get it to work i downloaded the whole PHP-ASP package from your website and copied into spamfilterweb.
    The problem is that I did not overwrite the old db_connect.asp and that looked different than the one i downloaded from the PHP-ASP package.
    I added the correct line in again as you suggested and it now works fine.
     
    Thanks alot. it saves us from having to be dectectives for some of the users that always think they are loosing mail.
    I must say I think it works very well and we are so far very happy with it.
     
    Kind Regards
    Morten

    Hi. We are nearly there now.

    One probleml left.
    Users can not change password. In browser it returs the following message:
     

    Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80040e14' [MySQL][ODBC 5.1 Driver][mysqld-5.0.51a-community-nt]You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '[Password] = '123123' WHERE EMail = 'morten@xxxxxx.dk'' at line 1 /SpamFilterweb/classicasp/PasswordChange.asp, line 38

     
    I have then checked PasswordChange.asp to see what the problem is. I have pasted some lines below:
     
     OldPassword = Request.Form("OldPassword")
     If Len(OldPassword) Then
      NewPassword = Request.Form("NewPassword")
      ConfirmNewPassword = Request.Form("ConfirmNewPassword")
      If Len(NewPassword) < 6 Then
       ErrorMessage = "New Password was too short!"
      ElseIf NewPassword <> ConfirmNewPassword Then
       ErrorMessage = "New Password and Confirm New Password did not match!"
      ElseIf OldPassword = NewPassword Then
       ErrorMessage = "New Password was the same as Old Password!"
      Else
       SQL = "SELECT Password "
       SQL = SQL & "FROM tblLogins "
       SQL = SQL & "WHERE EMail = '" & EmailTo & "'"
       Set rs = con.Execute(SQL)
       If Not rs.EOF Then
        If rs("Password") <> OldPassword Then
         ErrorMessage = "Old Password was incorrect!"
        Else
         SQL = "UPDATE tblLogins "
         SQL = SQL & "SET [Password] = '" & NewPassword & "' "
         SQL = SQL & "WHERE EMail = '" & EmailTo & "'"
         con.Execute SQL   ----> THIS IS LINE 38
         Response.Redirect "ListSpam.asp"
        End If
     
    I belive I have to edit something on this line but not sure what and now. Using Mysql
    Any good idears?
     
    Kind Regards

    Morten,

    Can you try to slightly change the following 2 lines #36 and #37 as follows:

                             SQL = SQL & "SET Password = '" & NewPassword & "' "
                             SQL = SQL & "WHERE EMail = '" & EmailTo & "';"

    Hi Roberto
    Thanks for your time.
    Yes it worked :)
    Its a great improvement for our service to be able to provide this. I am not going to use it my self, but you know there are always someones that wants to be in control, and for them its good. Save me from time to go through quarantiend mails to check all the time :)
    Thanks
     
    An additional question:
    If we where to upgrade to Enterprice version, would this interface be the same. I read somewhere that with enterprice each user can also from webinterface, create rules. Like add a "non spam mail" to his white list etc... Is this correct?
    And if is this white list based on "from"  E-mail address?
    Kind Regards
    Morten

    Glad that worked. In the Enterprise version nothing will change, everything will work "as-is". Additionally, in SpamFilter Enterprise, most settings are stored in the database and can thus be more easily changed by external application. We provide a sample administration web interface that allows administration of either the global settings for SpamFilter, and/or the filters for the individual domains (the Enterprise version allows almost every setting/whitelist/blacklist to be configured independently f each domain).
