 |
|
In a few previous posts some people (including myself) found problems with
executing CGI programs using IIS 6.0.
You could get a message like "Access violation at address 77F4831D in module
'ntdll.dll'".
Thanks to Jesper Bang Jensen who gave me this bug fix on Borland Quality
Central. I would like to share his solution here:
Locate SysUtil.pas. Edit definition of GetEnvironmentVariable as below and
place it in lib-folder.
function GetEnvironmentVariable(const Name: string): string;
var
Len: integer;
W : String;//Jb 14.8.03 Server 2003 CGI-fix
begin
Result := '';
SetLength(W,1);//Jb 14.8.03 Server 2003 CGI-fix
Len := GetEnvironmentVariable(PChar(Name), PChar(W), 1); //Jb 14.8.03
Server 2003 CGI-fix
// Len := GetEnvironmentVariable(PChar(Name), Nil, 0);
if Len > 0 then
begin
SetLength(Result, Len - 1);
GetEnvironmentVariable(PChar(Name), PChar(Result), Len);
end;
end;
It didn't break when testing with an older version of IIS.
Groetjes,
Frits.

Frits,
Many thanks for your solution since it is the first update I have seen
to this problem in 2 months. Unfortunately, your solution does not
work for the problem that we are having here.
The problem that we are experiencing is in the
LStrToPChar
routine in System.pas. The problem seems to be when it is converting
LStr to PChars as was shown up by your problem. Your solution is a
high level solution to the low level problem.
Does anyone know any solutions to this particular problem. We are
currently porting our application from CGI to DLL but this is not a
simple nor quick job so any interim solutions would be greatfully
appreciated.
Please post any replies to the newsgroup since my email address is no
longer valid.
Many thanks
