Using ASP Queries When SSL Is Enabled Gives Incomplete Results
or Errors
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Internet Information
Server version 3.0
- Microsoft Internet Explorer
version 3.01
- Microsoft Active Server Pages
version 1.0
Symptoms
When you do an ODBC query to a database using Active Server Pages
(ASP), or you run a large ASP file while security is enabled using
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), you may receive incomplete results or
random errors may be generated in Internet Explorer.
This behavior is random. You may be able to run the query with all
records reported, but when you click refresh in the browser window
the symptoms mentioned in the preceding paragraph may occur.
WORKAROUND
WARNING: Using Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious, system-wide
problems that may require you to reinstall Windows NT to correct
them. Microsoft cannot guarantee that any problems resulting from
the use of Registry Editor can be solved. Use this tool at your
own risk.
- Run Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe)
on the Internet Information Server computer.
- Go to the following key in the
registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\ W3SVC\ASP\Parameters
- On the Edit menu, click Modify
to change the following entry:
4. Value Name: BufferingOn
5. Value: 1
- Exit Registry Editor. You do
not need to restart the computer for the change to take effect.
More Information
The BufferingOn flag controls whether Active Server Pages buffers
output to a browser. If the flag is on (set to 1, rather than the
default value of 0) then all output is collected before any is sent
to the browser. This allows HTTP headers to be set from anywhere
within a script. The Response.Buffer method can be used to override
this default setting. Changing the BufferingOn setting does not
require you to stop and restart the Web server for the change to
take effect.
