ASP paged can not be displayed

I get this error on:
Error Type:
Microsoft VBScript compilation (0x800A03EE)
Expected ')'
/rfi/global.asa, line 4, column 17
if Application(""Users"")="""" then
----------------^


This works on other servers but for some reason I can not get it to work. I have Windows 2000 with IIS running.

Why are your quotes doubled up? Did you copy this code from somewhere else?

If Application("Users") = "" Then

Still not working. The page just hangs. I do not even get the error.

########Here is old code#######

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=VBScript RUNAT=Server>

Sub Session_OnStart
if Application(""Users"")="""" then
Application(""Users"")=0
end if
Application(""Users"")=Application(""Users"")+1

End Sub

Sub Session_OnEnd
Application(""Users"")=Application(""Users"")-1
End Sub

</SCRIPT>




########Here is new code#########

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=VBScript RUNAT=Server>

Sub Session_OnStart
if Application("Users")="" then
Application("Users")=0
end if
Application("Users")=Application("Users")+1

End Sub

Sub Session_OnEnd
Application("Users")=Application("Users")-1
End Sub

</SCRIPT>

global.asa doesn't execute in a page, and you should not be able to call global.asa from a browser. If you tried to go directly to global.asa and didn't get some kind of error message about "not allowed", you have some configuration problem with your server.

there error comes up when i try to go to my login.asp page. it displays the global.asa error

One guess is that the Users Application variable needs to be initialized in an Application_OnStart sub. Otherwise it will be null or empty when you first try to use it in your code, and a null or empty value isn't the same as a null string ("")
