Another input :

Right clicking and opening the broken image link on a new window
provides the following message ;

Server object error 'ASP 0177 : 800401f3'
Server.CreateObject Failed
/forum/security_image.asp, line 76
Invalid class string

Looking at "Line 76" in the security_image.asp, I read (lines 75 &76):

'Set the stream object
Set objADOStream = server.createobject("ADODB.Stream")

What is wrong here ?
Thanks

This means that the server you are using hasn't been updated in quite sometime and so doesn't meet the minimum requirements found on:-

http://www.webwiz.net/web_wiz_forums/forum_specificati ons.asp?mode=forum

you need a newer version of the ADO MDAC drivers installed on the server.

Aw, I have the same problem. I just spent hours updating my forum from 7.1 to 7.6 but now when i go into my admin page to unlock the forums i see that i have to type in the security code. however i just get broken images too. is there no way to turn off this security feature? or do i have to go back to 7.1? i use a free server and they won't respond to my emails about updating the ADO MDAC drivers.

thanks

Here:

http://www.stellarfrontier.com/transfers/register.zip

This comments out the security code bits and then deletes the portion of the page's table devoted to displaying and collecting the meshuganah security code image.

Keep your original register.asp around if you want to restore.

And I am running the latest 2.8 MDAC and it still doesn't work, so I disable the "feature".

RH Burton,

My provider confirmed the drivers update requirement as posted by

-boRg-
Admin Group

above. I expect these drivers to be updated - unless they create
other issues for other files on their server, in which case (or if this
still doesn't work) I will test your solution or drop off and chose
another way to create my forum.

Thanks & best regards
NickJ

Make sure that if you have upgraded you have uploaded all the new images both in the main forum and the admin area that are numbers as .gif images, if you don't you will see broken images.
