I am trying to set up Snitz and I sure that it has ASP and Access support. So I rename the database, and put it in my /db/ folder. I use the virtual path to database method and setup up the strDBtype(<- can't remeber the exact variable, but the one you need to uncomment for Access). So i go to http://<sitename>/forum/setup.asp, in Mozilla i get this error
Active Server Pages error 'ASP 0116'
Missing close of script delimiter
/forum/setup.asp, line 3908
The Script block lacks the close of script tag (%>).
In IE it thinks about it for a second and then says the page cannot be displayed. Any ideas? |

| try re-uploading all of the .asp files, and make sure that you upload them in ASCII (text) mode, not binary mode. |

| could i possibly be putting the db in the wrong place? I am not sure if i set up the virtual path correctly. would that cause a problem like this? |

also, im assuming that you only need to uncomment one line for the strConnString variable right? i.e.
strConnString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & Server.MapPath("/db/database.mdb") '## MS Access 2000 using virtual path |

ok, so i got to line 3908 in setup.asp and delete the <% tag. I try again and it goes all the way through. DB created and got the congratulations page. so i try the next link to, http://<sitename>/forum/default.asp, it gives me an error in mozilla but works ok with IE. (forum.snitz works fine with mozilla for me...) Anyway, in IE everything works EXCEPT for viewing the posts. I can create posts, forums and everything it just wont let me SEE the posts. for example, http://www.patientleveldata.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=3
any ideas?

| yeah, i deleted that <% tag in setup.asp to get the setup to work... maybe that would cause it? But once you run setup.asp is it used again? I haven't changed any other code |

| ok, so looking at line 761 in topic.asp is has a <% but it doesn't have any %> following it. I'm not going to pretend that I know how to code ASP, but would this be cause for concern? Every other <% %> pair is valid as far as i know since they are paired up, except line 761. |

You're not using MS Frontpage are you?
What FTP program did you use to upload the files? |

| Just what I was suspecting Davio. Bet it is an HTML editor problem like using FrontPage. notepad, you should stick with notepad to edit asp files. |

im guessing line 761 is "<!--#INCLUDE FILE="inc_jump_to.asp" -->"?
check that the last line of topic.asp is %> |

I just created my forum a couple of days ago and found it very easy to do. I also used Frontpage 2002 to upload the database and all of the asp files. I used NotePad to edit the pages before uploading. No problems at all. I installed the security fix and the mod for the NIS firewall, ZoneAlarm Pro has the same problem, and every thing is working fine. Thanks for creating such an easy forum to setup and configure.  |
