Hi... we are 2.8 version of MDAC and are having issues with redirection back to default.asp whenever viewing a topic with whichpage=-1 in the querystring. From what I have gathered I am almost sure this functionality exists purely for the jump to last post feature.
We have a few mods installed, and the forums are quite well modified.
I am very experienced with ASP, and either this one is just to obvious for words (Cant see the woods for the trees), or something pretty whacky is going on.
DEMO of what is happening (This should open the topic to the last post in the thread): http://www.webforumz.com/topic.asp?whichpage=-1&topic_id=1577&reply_id=9080
Here is a link to my topic.asp page in .txt format http://www.webforumz.com/topic.txt
Be forewarned, I am using speedball 2, and a few mods, so this file aint gonna resemble the topic.asp in a base install.
I would be extremely grateful for any indication of what the hell is happening here. I have had to disable jump to last post till i figure this out... It is driving me NUTZ!
Thanks. |

From memory, whichpage=-1 executes some code that calculates which page the requested reply_id is on. Although that code isn't in your topic.txt  |

| I've had this problem too, but haven't gotten around to looking into it. Of late, it seems to be intermittent which makes some sense if it's a calculated value. I've also noticed that after making a reply to a topic, I often end up at default.asp instead of back at the topic to which I've just replied. |

| I found your code, starting at line 265. I think there's something in there that's wrong, but you'll need to add some Response.Writes in there to check it out. |

I am still non the wiser.... what the heck is going on here.
I have hundreds of google listings showing -1 in the querystring which are now redirected.... google will very soon drop these pages, so i have to fix this yesterday.
Any takers? |

IIRC there were a few threads on this (I know I asked about it too) and the standard answer was that your host has a component missing/older version that is causing the glitch.
Best bet: do a search

Check the value of OLEDB Version variable in Admin Options -> Server Information, what is it showing?
Make sure you are using OLEDB connection string. Try restarting the server if it still does not work and you have installed a new version of OLEDB and have not yet restarted the server. |

Redbrad... I'm using an odbc connection string.
Mdac 2.8 is installed which I believe gives the latest version of ODBC support.
I think it must be one of my MODS causing the issue.
I'm not exactly sure what to response.write out...
I know I'm looking for a needle, but cant even find the haystack... let alone start searching it. |

I already use that.
This is my connection string:-
strConnString = "Provider=sqloledb;Data Source=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx;Initial Catalog=xxxxxxxxxxxx;User Id=**************;Password=*******8*******;"
Other ideas? |
