I’m not sure if this is implemented or not in the Python ASP code or not, but I am trying to duplicate some VBS code in Python, and use the URL below as a primer as I couldn’t find any info on the internet about how Python might implement this kind of ASP code.

I know the link is SUPER OLD but it’s the best docs I have been able to find on the subject.

I am trying to create cookies similar to how the Microsoft Certificate Authority Website on Windows Server 2016/2019/2022 does.

Here’s my Python ASP code

<% @Language="Python"%>

<%

Response.Write("Here<BR>")

for cookie in Response.Cookies:

Response.Write(Response.Cookies(cookie)["expires"])

Response.Write(f"dir = {Response.Cookies.__dir__()}")

if not "Type" in Response.Cookies:

    cookie = Response.Cookies["type"] = "peanut-butter" # simplistic example of trying to create one

Response.Write("Past Cookie Creation code<BR>")

%>

Here’s my error:

Python ActiveX Scripting Engine error '80020009'

Traceback (most recent call last): File "<Script Block >", line 3, in <module> cookie = Response.Cookies["type"] = "peanut-butter" File "C:\Python310\lib\site-packages\win32com\client\dynamic.py", line 348, in __setitem__ self._oleobj_.Invoke(*allArgs), self._olerepr_.defaultDispatchName, None COM Error: OLE error 0x80020101

/testcookies.asp, line 5

cookie = Response.Cookies["type"] = "peanut-butter"

Any guidance would be appreciated as I’ve scoured google for all it was worth.

Response.Cookies is "just" a dynamic COM object/collection and pywin32 has never been great with them and "magic" things like properties etc due to various semantic mismatches. If you are lucky, there might be a method on the object taking 2 params? I'm guessing `__dir__` didn't help?

Regardless, a last resort would be to unwrap that __setitem__ call and experiment with the correct "DISPATCH_*" flags (and in particular, trying "DISPATCH_METHOD", because the examples are all showing function calls to "set" a value, which python has no concept of!) - the other values are probably correct.

HTH,

Mark
