How do I install Scripting.FileSystemObject
or make sure it is installed? is it a component or something?
"MOD Setup requires that the Scripting.FileSystemObject be installed and you need to have access to it. If you don't, then you'll either get an error, or the page will hang and not load."
how do I install Scripting.FileSystemObject or how do I set it up so I can get mod setup to work?
please if you can help let me know thanks,

Try this:
<%
function IsObjInstalled(strClassString)
on error resume next
'## initialize default values
IsObjInstalled = false
Err = 0
'## testing code
dim xTestObj
set xTestObj = Server.CreateObject(strClassString)
if 0 = Err then
IsObjInstalled = true
end if
'## cleanup
set xTestObj = nothing
Err = 0
on error Goto 0
end function
if IsObjInstalled("scripting.filesystemobject") then
response.write "INSTALLED"
else
response.write "NOT INSTALLED"
end if
%>

What file should I put it in config or admin_mod_dbsetup? and do I over write specific lines of code? or add it in what line?

I assumed you are using a web host. If you are trying to know if that server supports this object, just copy-paste the code to a new file, upload and run it.
You cannot install components to a remote server - hosts do not allow these.
If you own your server, then it is another story.

Just put that in a blank page of its own, name it say testFSO.asp, upload it to your host and then try executing it.

Ok I ran
<%@ LANGUAGE=VBScript %>
<%
function IsObjInstalled(strClassString)
on error resume next
'## initialize default values
IsObjInstalled = false
Err = 0
'## testing code
dim xTestObj
set xTestObj = Server.CreateObject(strClassString)
if 0 = Err then
IsObjInstalled = true
end if
'## cleanup
set xTestObj = nothing
Err = 0
on error Goto 0
end function
if IsObjInstalled("scripting.filesystemobject") then
response.write "INSTALLED"
else
response.write "NOT INSTALLED"
end if
%>
and it said INSTALLED
---------------------------------------------------------
My server is a home server
running windows 2000 server
access 2000
antivirus is off
here is what I did for install
1. unzipped snitz to C:\website\forum\
2. edited config file with the following
strDBType = "access"
strConnString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:\website\forum\snitz_forums_2000.mdb" '## MS Access 2000
3.unzipped the tools zip to C:\website\forum
4.I then added these file names to the "enable default documents" under properties for my website.
default.asp
setup.asp
5. run permission wizard, gave permissions for public website
6. I then go to c:\website open properties for forum folder, then click security, highlight admin, Admin has full control over folder. then I highlight everyone, then I put a check in the write box. These other boxes are checked and grayed in
( read and execute)
(list folder contents)
(read)
5. I then type in the www./website address/forum/setup.asp
6. setup page come up.
7. log in as admin
8. go to admin options
9. click mod setup
10. it just seems to run and run, and hangs
any ideas why?

Are you sure you antivirus is OFF, this error is normallycaused by script blockers in AV software.

Problem solved. Instead of just disabling and turning script blocking off like I tried before, I un installed the program. Ran Mod setup and it works. So obvious its the anit virus. Then I reinstalled antivirus, made sure that script blocking was off and now mod setup works fine. weird.
thanks for all the help
