I recently moved a website to a new ISP which includes a snitz forum:
the connection string is:
strDBType = "access"
and
strConnString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & Server.MapPath("/******/******.mdb") '## MS Access 2000 using virtual path
there is somesort of connection with the database, because topics are showing up, although the configuration settings are in the db tables there do not show up. I tried to run setup.asp but get the following error:
There has been an error !!
The database could not be opened !! Check your config.asp file and set the strConnString so it points to the database. Also check if strDBType is set to the right databasetype.
Code : 80004005
Error Description : [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified
Sadly not that simple, I double checked and there is only the one connection string uncommented, i called the hosting company as well to double check that i had the correct connection string?
Hi After further investigation (Beyond Compare is so good!) i found some changed code in the config.asp (A colleague held his hand up to it). so its all fixed.
