Posting this here is a long shot but ...
I'm trying to add some function to a classic asp page written in vbscript
The main page is over 2000 lines of codes and also contains a load of 'includes' with many more lines of vbscript and javascript.
I cannot remove any code to make things simpler.
The page performs a search where, if the user does not select many filters for the data, we get a recordset of between 10,000 and 100,000 data rows.
The code I have added runs fine and does what it needs to do BUT, if it takes over (approximately) 90 seconds, nothing is ever sent back to the page.
I understand the default server timeout is 90 seconds (so the observed behaviour is suspicious) but this setting is overridden in IIS and set to 5 minutes, and the page doesn't actually throw a timeout error. It's as though the web browser (internet explorer) has just given up.
This is the first (and hopefully last) time I've used classic asp.
Any ideas?
Database connection timing out after 90 seconds?
Nope, it gets all the data and loops through it quite happily, writing the results to file.
