I’ve download a copy of Snitz with several mods already built in.
They are;

1)Poll mod
2)Active users
3)Sticky topic
4)Private messages
5)Messages icon
6)Advanced color control
7)Random password via e-mail on registration.

My current board is here:
http://www.gtracing.ca/

The beta with the above mods can be viewed here:
http://www.gtracing.ca/beta/

My problem is, how can I bring the current data base over without loosing current messages. (export through access doesn’t work)…

Some of you might say run “mod_dbsetup.asp” .. for each mod.. if you go to the
http://www.gtracing.ca/beta/ (admin and admin for administration access).. you’ll notice I get the error “error 429|ActiveX component can't create object”

Since I don’t have access to put the file (or is there an easier fix???????? Or I’m I missing something?) on the server, I need to work with someone closely over the next 1 or 2 days.

Anyone willing to help me out? Is there an easier fix?

Thanks folks.

Hello;

-- The line I'm using is:

> strConnString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data
> Source=c:\inetpub\dbroot\snitz_forums_2000.mdb" '## MS Access 2000

-- similar anyways.. but with the drive letter the whole bit.
-- strConnString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=d:\web\users\gtracingca\forum\XXXX\snitz_forums_2000.mdb" '## MS Access 2000


Also,

MOD Setup requires that the Scripting.FileSystemObject be installed and you need to have access to it. If you don't, then you'll either get an error, or the page will hang and not load.

if you get the following error: error 429|ActiveX component can't create object

it could be a problem with anti-virus software, try disabling script-blocking if you have anti-virus software installed.

-- Nope... tried both browsers, same issues with the mod setup (with antivirus off).

Most of all

Please remember that the MOD Setup was created by Huw Reddick (HuwR) as a courtesy to those installing MODS. It may or may not work for you. If it doesn't, there are other ways to update the database.

-- any other ideas?

Thanks, i appriciate your time.

Dean

I thought the link to the Alternative MOD Setup was in that post. See here then: http://forum.snitz.com/forum/topic.asp?ARCHIVE=true&TOPIC_ID=17934

You can use that instead of the MOD Setup file.
