The database could not be opened !!
Check your config.asp file and set the
strConnString so it points to the database.
Also check if strDBType is set to the right databasetype.
Code : -2147467259

Wat Does that mean? How do I fix it? I tried going to config.asp, but didn't work, wat am I suppose to do?

Did you edit config.asp and uncomment the line with your Database type and also uncomment/edit one of the strConnString lines?

Did you read the readme.txt file that comes in the .zip file you downloaded?

ok, u need to go to your config.asp file and
change the following to your database type(Access,MYSQL...)
take the ' off wich one you have
'strDBType = "sqlserver"
'strDBType = "access"
'strDBType = "mysql"
Then put the path to your database with snitz_forums_2000.mdb file in it:
Same as above take the ' thing in the front of the path off

'strConnString = "DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; DBQ=" & Server.MapPath("/fpdb/snitz_forums_2000.mdb") '## MS Access 97 using virtual path
'strConnString = "DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; DBQ=c:\inetpub\dbroot\snitz_forums_2000.mdb" '## MS Access 97
'strConnString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & Server.MapPath("/fpdb/snitz_forums_2000.mdb") '## MS Access 2000 using virtual path
strConnString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=D:\wwwroot\domainname\database\snitz_forums_2000.mdb;" '## MS Access 2000
'strConnString = "driver={SQL Server};server=SERVER_NAME;uid=SQL_USER;pwd=PASSWORD;database=DATABASE_NAME" '## MS SQL Server 7
'strConnString = "driver=MySQL;server=SERVER_NAME;uid=MYSQL_USER;pwd=PASSWORD;database=DATABASE_NAME" '## MySQL

hope this helps
