hey ppls,

im new to this, and this is mainly for some testing for work, im automating the process of completing an online form and submitting it via vb, one method works fine, but still requires you to click the submit button, it just fills the form out. anyway, its the next method which is failing me. it posts the correct data straight to a file, however this is returning a 405 error, with the message either method not supported or resource not allowed.

any ideas as i've never set up a web server before..... thanks in advance

jwoodbr,

Error 405 means that your are posting the data to a static file. In other words, the file referred to in the ACTION parameter of your form is not declared as being a script or an executable in Abyss Web Server.
If it is a script, check that you've correctly installed and added support for the scripting language in Abyss Web Server (see http://www.aprelium.com/support for PHP, Perl, ASP, and Pzthon).
If it is an executable CGI application, add its virtual path to the Script Paths in Scripting Parameters.
