I have copied my APPSERVER.EXE and all /APPSERVR and /APACHE24 files from a Windows 2022 server to a new 2025 Server.
But on the new server, when I run
http://localhost/wconnect/wc.dll?dtU00000000~TESTING
Instead of "success" I'm getting
An error occurred
The Web application returned no output to the Web server or the output was not accessible.
This is a pretty old APPSERVR.EXE compiled with 6.15 or so, and uses Apache 2.4 on that Windows 2025 server.
All files identical from the earlier Windows 2022 server.
It almost seems like the APPSERVR.EXE cannot place the wc_*.OUT files properly into the C:\TEMP folder, but I gave that folder all permissions.
Could this be a new Windows Server 2025 thingy?
I know, I'm WAY behind the times in consuming proper, modern West Wind versions and stuff, but I hoped maybe I can get the OLD stuff to run one more time in the new world.
Thank you in advance for any helpful hints...

Does the Error MEssage come from Apache or the Web Connection module?
The module should have some WC identification. If you don't see that then it's likely Apache configuration related.

OOPS, MY error (as always 😃
I had programmed some "Foreign Country detection logic" into my MYHPROCESS.PROCESS which misfired on that server, and it just
exited PROCESS with
RETURN ""
and of course it was "no output".
THANK YOU for your help, Rick, that had me confront the problem again and find the bad code. Everything beautifully compatible now.
