    I'm trying to create an admin area where my customer can go to delete some old image files from the server. I was looking at persits aspupload component since this is what I use to upload the pics. using their sample code but using server.mappath to create the directory path I get the following error.

    Persits.Upload.1 error '800a0028'

    This feature has been disabled by system administrator.

    /admin/imagedelete.asp, line 33

    Line 33 reads
    Set Dir = Upload.Directory( Directory & "*.*", Request("sortby"))

    I assume this has something to do with the virualsave I read in another post but since I'm not saving I'm deleting I tried to change the upload.directory to upload.savevirtual but that didn't work either.. Any suggestions?

    Thanks

    According to persits, this feature has potential security issue. You should consider using File SYstem Object to delete the file (FSO)
