wwipstuff.dll is not a Com object so it doesn't need registering.
+++ Rick ---
Having troubles setting up a Win2008 Server with web connect for VFP. Copied the wwipstuff.dll from my install folder to c:\windows\system32 and ran regsvr32 wwipstuff.dll. I get an error saying the module was loaded but the entry-point DllRegisterServer was not found.

Re: Visuals Studio Community 2013

Re: Visuals Studio Community 2013
Yes the Visual Studio Community Edition should work - it's basically Visual Studio Pro with a few minor things that don't work. It's much more feature complete than the old Express versions of Visual Studio.
I haven't specifically tried it with Web Connection, but I don't see why it wouldn't work. If you're using VS 2012 now the improvements are subtle - the most notable is the improved HTML editor and extended intellisense support for HTML, CSS and JavaScript.
+++ Rick ---
dear friends,
I use VS 2010 buyed with license.
Visual Studio Community is free.
Please is useful VS Community 2013 for me, or has it some limitation for developing web application with VFP e Web Connection?
Many thanks

You need to use .NET mode.
Here's the documentation to send email with SSL (you have to uncomment the SSL related code):

Hi Rick:
I tried to send emails via my ISP (Bell) with SendMail() and was thrown out with Error: STARTTLS statement missing.
NEED YOUR HELP: would you have a code example on how to send an email using STARTTLS. Most of my small customers use Bell and have no Website. My app has no choice but to transmit emails via Bell. Counting on you for a solution. See the bottom part which outlines the required steps.
STARTTLS
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
STARTTLS is an extension to plain text communication protocols, which offers a way to upgrade a plain text connection to an encrypted (TLS or SSL) connection instead of using a separate port for encrypted communication.
STARTTLS for IMAP and POP3 is defined in RFC 2595, for SMTP in RFC 3207, for FTP in RFC 4217, for XMPP in RFC 6120, for LDAP in RFC 2830, and for NNTP in RFC 4642.
Layering[edit]
TLS is application-neutral; in the words of RFC 5246
One advantage of TLS is that it is application protocol independent. Higher-level protocols can layer on top of the TLS protocol transparently. The TLS standard, however, does not specify how protocols add security with TLS; the decisions on how to initiate TLS handshaking and how to interpret the authentication certificates exchanged are left to the judgment of the designers and implementors of protocols that run on top of TLS.[1]
The style used to specify how to use TLS matches the same layer distinction that is also conveniently supported by several library implementations of TLS. E.g., the RFC 3207 SMTP extension illustrates with the following dialog how a client and server can start a secure session:[2]
S: <waits for connection on TCP port 25>
C: <opens connection>
S: 220 mail.example.org ESMTP service ready
C: EHLO client.example.org
S: 250-mail.example.org offers a warm hug of welcome
S: 250 STARTTLS
C: STARTTLS
S: 220 Go ahead
C: <starts TLS negotiation>
C & S: <negotiate a TLS session>
C & S: <check result of negotiation>
C: EHLO client.example.org[3]

All we are using in this most recent implementation is
loHTTP = CREATE("wwHTTP")
loHTTP.AddPostKey("username" ,gcNMIUserName)
loHTTP.AddPostKey("password" ,gcNMIPassword)
....
lcResult = loHTTP.HTTPGet("https://xxxxx.php")
This has been in production for ~3months before the vendor (credit card processor) out of the blue gave us 1 week to change protocols from SSL3 to TLS
The actual user I wrote this for has some IT support, and they are looking into the certificates.
Thanks for your response.
Email encryption is always using TLS. SSL3 and TLS is essentially the same thing (TLS level 1.2 I believe).
In any case the certificate installed will determine which protocol is used.
You are using wwSmtp with .NET mode right?
+++ Rick ---
I am using a copy of wwipstuff purchased in 2010. Works great, but we have just had a complaint that we are sending with SSL3 and we must do TLS. I read the blog post on this, but it is slightly over my head.
Do I read it correctly that even this older release of wwipstuff is not the problem? The program is an automated process running quietly on XP Will upgrading the pc to win7 automatically fix this? Do I need to tell wwipstuff to use TLS?

Oh you're talking about HTTP calls? You don't have to do anything special to use SSL. Just access the URL and it will work.
The SSL stack used for HTTP calls uses what's in Windows. If you are seeing old SSL version that's because you're usign an old version of Windows (XP or older?)... IAC that should not matter...
+++ Rick ---
I should have offered more details. Just wanted to avoid a lot of words as to how we got here. You ask "You are using wwSmtp with .NET mode right?" I don't actually know. Your package makes it possible to do this without knowing much of anything.

HELP: Logging In to Another Secure Web Site From WebConnect
Web Connection
HELP: Logging In to Another Secure Web Site From WebConnect
I have a WebConnect application whose users would like to seamlessly go from my site to another that has login requirements and when they're done in that site return to mine.
The goal was to coordinate between the two sites, mine being the "parent" and the other being the "child,* so that the user only has to enter one username/password combination and after logging in to the "parent," clicking on a link would log them in to the "child," with my application generating a URL that would incorporate the username/password for the child site along with a parameter that would open the "child" site up in a new tab, so that when the user logged out, that tab would be closed and they would be back in the "parent" site (actually never leaving my site, just closing the tab and displaying the last tab they were on).
Working with the other company, I was able with Redirect to the site and pass in the username/password, but when the user logged out from that site they were returned to the original login page (because that's how they originally designed it).
So I asked if they could modify the URL to pass in a parameter to create a new tab in the browser by passing in the target="_blank" parameter, which they did, and they provided sample HTML below to test it out:
<!DOCTYPE html><html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><head><title></title></head><body><div><ahref="https://ylqa.yeslawonline.com/LoginClient.aspx?uname=demouser&pword=demouser&parent=Close" target ="_blank" />LoginClient link</div></body></html>
This is a dummy account, so if you want to click on it, go ahead.
Initially I was using the below code with the Redirect:
lcReturnURL = gowcserver.oconfig.oTAWPROCESS.cHomePage + [<<a href="http://www.jwhcorp.com]" target="top" >>http://www.jwhcorp.com] <</a>> Response.Redirect([https://login.yeslawonline.com/LoginClient.aspx?uname=] + lcUserName + [&pword=] + lcPassWord + ; [&parent=] + lcReturnURL)
Which worked, but when the user exited it was returned to the user's home web page, and not the last page of my web application that they were one.
Using Redirect, it doesn't appear to let me also pass in the HTML "target" parameter. This is what I tried:
Response.Redirect([https://ylqa.yeslawonline.com/LoginClient.aspx?uname=] + lcUserName + [&pword=] + lcPassWord + ;[&parent=Close ] + [target="_blank"])
So I commented out the Redirect and tried goURL
goURL([https://ylqa.yeslawonline.com/LoginClient.aspx?uname=] + lcUserName + [&pword=] + lcPassWord + ;[&parent=Close ] + [target="_blank"])
Which did create a new tab, but on the tab the user was currently was on I got the No Output Returned from Server. I can't figure out why that is occurring, because I do use the goURL in other places in my app and I don't get that error.
I didn't make any changes in the calling method other than changing between using the Redirect and the goURL
Any ideas on what the best approach is to allow a user to log in to a "parent", and then while staying in the "parent" log in to a "child" web site with username and password by creating a new tab in the browser so when the user is done working in the "child," they can close the "child's" tab and be returned to the "parent"?
Hope this isn't too terribly confusing ...
Thanks for any help ...

GetTimeZoneInformationForYear in WIN32API
FoxPro Programming
GetTimeZoneInformationForYear in WIN32API
I'm trying to access GetTimeZoneInformationForYear in the WIN API, but not getting expected return info, so suspect I'm not passing in the parameters properly. (My "skills" in this are are limited to looking at how Rick does things.)
The documentation I saw for this function (available in Vista+ and Server 2008+) calls for passing 3 parameters:
<code>
BOOL WINAPI GetTimeZoneInformationForYear(
_In_ USHORT wYear,
_In_opt_ PDYNAMIC_TIME_ZONE_INFORMATION pdtzi,
_Out_ LPTIME_ZONE_INFORMATION ptzi
);
* wYear [in]: The year for which the time zone settings are to be retrieved. The wYear parameter must be a local time value.
* pdtzi [in, optional]: A pointer to a DYNAMIC_TIME_ZONE_INFORMATION structure that specifies the time zone. If this parameter is NULL, the current time zone is used.
* ptzi [out]: A pointer to a TIME_ZONE_INFORMATION structure that receives the time zone settings.
I'm not interested in the 2nd parameter, so want to pass a NULL there--not sure how, but tried chr(0) below. Also, the first parameter wYear is supposed to be a "local time value". I've tried both passing the integer year and converting to a SYSTEMTIME, but neither of those works.
The code I've tried is below. It "runs", but the resulting lpTimeZoneInformation string doesn't have expected standard and daylight SYSTEMTIME info, which should appear in substr(lpTimeZoneInformation, 69, 16) and substr(lpTimeZoneInformation, 153, 16), respectively.
Any help appreciated!
local lpTimeZoneInformation, lpDynamicTZI, lnBias, lpTime
function GetYearTimeZoneInfo(tnYear)
declare integer GetTimeZoneInformationForYear ;
in Kernel32.dll ;
integer wYear, ;
string @lpDynamicTZI, ;
string @lpTimeZoneInformation
lpTimeZoneInformation = replicate(chr(0), 172)
lpDynamicTZI = chr(0) && trying to pass NULL to API
lnBias = GetTimeZoneInformationForYear(m.tnYear, lpDynamicTZI, @lpTimeZoneInformation)
* lnBias && returns 1, which looks right
return m.lpTimeZoneInformation
endfunc

No that sounds all right. Can you check the static file handler and make sure that it's pointing at the staticfile module and also that it's mapped to only files?
Can you post your web.config and the <system.webServer> section?
Make sure you don't have:
<modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true">
Still even that would not cause the Web Connection module to be fired for everything. The only thing that would do that if the * handler map is pointing at Web Connection? You wouldn't have played around with trying to make extensionless URLs work would you? There are a number of ways that the IIS URL Redirect module can cause this to happen.
+++ Rick ---
A little Thanksgiving slow-down on this issue . . .
On my Dev machine I have TraceVerbHandler, OptionsVerbHandler, and StaticFile with just "*" as their path when I look in the Handler Mappings applet. However, on the production server, I have those three plus WebDAV set up that way. Then I have ExtensionlessURLHandler-ISAPI-4.0_32bit and ExtensionlessURLHandler-ISAPI-4.0_64bit with their path set to "*." Do any of these control wildcards or is that set somewhere else?
As for the other issue you mention, I am using wc.dll.
Russell
Well, you either have wildcards turned on or enabled to run all requests through the Web Connection module. I suppose you're running the .NET module rather than the ISAPI extension (wc.dll)? If so there are options in the module configuration that will force all requests through the application.
However, even that should not route to your handler unless you have a wild card script map that's routing to your Web Connection application.
+++ Rick ---
Don't think so. If I did, I think the other pages would be messed up, so I don't think that's the problem. It's just these new registration pages that are messed up.
Did you turn on a wildcard scriptmap in your virtual folder?
+++ Rick ---
I've got a site that's been running for years and I am adding some registration pages for users to sign up and pay. It works fine on my machine, but not on the production server. On the production server, the one hit turns to many. It's running in file mode and you can see that what should show as just one hit ends up being many hits. It appears that my WWWC app responds for every resource requested. So there's the initial request for the page, then one for the CSS, one for the JS, one for images, etc. And, indeed, I can look at the Chrome dev tools and it says - for instance - that the image looks like an image but is being delivered via text/html and so it does not display. Same basic message for the CSS and JS.
Has anyone seen this behavior before? All the other pages on the site are working great. Not sure why these pages have decided to cause trouble.
