Number Lookup TXT File

[ittogo]

Hi,

we have build a VAD script which looks up a number from a number.txt.
This number.txt is saved under C:\ProgramData\3CX\Data\Http\Interface\ivr. And in the script the file stated as ../number.txt.
This works so far.
But when we try to save the number.txt in an other location, the script won't work anymore.
Why can't we save the number.txt in any location and stated the location in the script?

I hope i could explain, what i mean.

Best regards

Hi,

This is pretty sure a IIS configuration issue.

By default it only allows to access files into the IVR application folder. I'm pretty sure that you can configure it to allow it. Also, I think that this is a limitation of IIS, and very possible it is not there with Abyss, I have not tried, but I think Abyss has not that limitation. Can you confirm that you're using IIS?

Hi,

unfortunately i cannot confirm. We are using Abyss Server.
May You can try with the Abyss and a TXT file.
We didn't have any sucess by trying an other location.

Hi,

So, it seems that Abyss has the same behavior. I'm not an expert with Abyss web server, but pretty sure it can be configured to
allow access to directories outside the application directory. You should be able to reconfigure it to make it work as you need.

Maybe this link helps you:
http://www.aprelium.com/data/doc/2/abyssws-win-doc-html/index.html

It is the user's manual of the Abyss Web Server. Pretty sure there you will find what you need to know to make the configuration changes.

Hi,

i tried to configure an other path for the Abyss Application directory, but can't get it to work.

Maybe someone else has more experience with the Abyss Webserver and can give me a good hint, who to manage the problem.

Best regards

I can easily create a component for you that will move the file to any location after it is saved. Send me a PM if you want.
