I have installed a forum. If I link to a active database everything works.. if I link to the database that belongs to new forum I get the following message. I have contacted my ISP and they have given the folder read/write permission. Thanks for any help Michael

You said "they have given the folder read/write permission". But the database file also need to have read/write permission. Make sure they change both for the folder the database is in and for the database file itself.
Thank you david... as you were sending me that note, I was sending my isp a note to do just that... I hope it works.. thanks again. By the way.. how can I access whereami if it is in a database folder?
