UGH! I could really use some help. I have the same problem as these two had. I've followed this thread through and tried all of the things suggests. I'm running Windows 2000 Professional and am trying to setup this forum through my IIS.
Here is my other goods.
Checking the file forum.mdb (what i called my converted Access 2000 file) the internet user has both read and write access on that file as well as the directory too. Also i have tried it with both the "Web Sharing" on and off... but as expected that didn't make much of a difference.
Here is my config.asp
Session.LCID = 1033 '## Do Not Edit
Response.Buffer = true
dim strDBType, strConnString, strTablePrefix, strMemberTablePrefix '## Do Not Edit
'#################################################################################
'## SELECT YOUR DATABASE TYPE AND CONNECTION TYPE (access, sqlserver or mysql)
'#################################################################################
strDBType = "access"
'## Make sure to uncomment one of the strConnString lines!
strConnString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=c:\Inetpub\dbroot\forum.mdb" '## MS Access 2000
strTablePrefix = "FORUM_"
strMemberTablePrefix = "FORUM_"
i wish i was simply editing the wrong file ;) but unfortunately i am updating the correct config.asp file. Is there something i'm supposed to install in windows 2000 to properly run it? ... i do have Access 2000 installed :) ..
Moving the file to the C:\Inetpub\ directory doesn't seem to help.
And i have run the whereami.asp script and confirmed the directory that the script thinks the database is in. So i'm convinced it must be a permission thing or some setting in IIS or something i need to have installed that i don't?
ANY suggestions would be greatly greatly appreciated. Is there something really stupid i'm missing?
Thanks
Brent
