After setting up Snitz Forum with a different dsn than my own and in a separate database than that which my asp pages uses, when I attempt to access them I get the following error: Error Type: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (0x80004005) [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Could not use '(unknown)'; file already in use. /Request_Access.asp, line 119 that line is my connection line in that page, if I refresh the error reads Unknown error type
The forum still works fine...it seems to be taking over the access driver and not relinquishing the files? This error happens even if I shut explorer down and reopen my pages...my connection wont work for my whole site...this is the second time it happens..the first time I has imported the snitz db into mine, so I thought that may be causing the problem. Any suggestions?
this is a problem with read/write permissions and the creating and deleteing of a .ldb file. Give the folder containing the database full permissions, do a search on the forums for related topics to this because it is asked quite often.
I had read the messages and did try that, however, my connection to the forum works fine, i have set it up as a dsn, it is my previous connection which used to work that does not anymore
