Your strDBType is not set, please edit your config.asp
to reflect your database type.

My setting in config.asp is:

strDBType = "access"
'strDBType = "mysql"

What does this have to do with the poll mod, may I ask? Looks like you're still trying to setup your forum.
Did you make sure you uploaded your config.asp file to your forum folder, after you made the changes? Your server might also be caching your config.asp file. So you think you are using the updated file, when you are still using and older file.
I was trying implement Poll MOD to exiting forum(it was running just fine). Uploaded "dbs_poll_uninstall.asp" file and ran "MOD Setup" from Admin Option OK. Uploaded all other files including config.asp. Tried go to "setup.asp", then this symptom has occured!!
I downloaded config.asp file from the server. YES, it was original(unedited) file. It was my fault; working with different folder, uploading plain original files to the server.
