I did a search for the answer to this one and came up with nothing...

my forum install is about 1 month old and has not changed since the install.. I'm now getting this error:

Provider error '80004005'

Unspecified error

/snitz/inc_header.asp, line 114

Line 114 is as follows:

my_Conn.Open strConnString

Snitz is running on a win2k server using the access db and is hosted by myself. I am running the lastest version and have tried a complete install of all asp pages including the config.asp.
any help would be appreciated
Thank you,
RichRinger

As an example with out knowing whihc path that you are using, I would suggest that you change the path to an Access 2000 path:
'strConnString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & Server.MapPath("snitz_forums_2000.mdb") '## MS Access 2000 using virtual path
'strConnString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & Server.MapPath("/USERNAME/db/snitz_forums_2000.mdb") '## MS Access 2000 on Brinkster
'strConnString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=<your physical path to the db>\snitz_forums_2000.mdb" '## MS Access 2000
As an example. The code means that it con not open the DB on the connection string it is using.

I hope that helps..

Cheers,

I changed the connection string I was using from access 97 to access 2000 and it is now working. Snitz is the best forums out there bar none! My company and I thank you. Keep up the good work :)

Now I have another problem... new users to my forums cannot register. If they hit the "agree" button it just redisplay's that agreement again.. I also cannot logout of the forums if I hit the "logout" button. I hope that this is an easy fix? I do have my forums open to new users.. so I don't think that's the issue.
I am using access2000 for the database and do run the latest snitz forums. http://www.rfrcomputers.com/snitz/

Thanks,
Rich

Got any security programs running like Norton Anti-Virus/System Security?

I am running AVG 7 for an anti-virus scanner and Kerio Firewall. I'll diable them 1 at a time and see if that fixes it.
Thanks

Rich

Update:
I turned off and disabled my firewall and virus scanner and didn't make a difference...

most likely some software is blocking the cookies or referrer data in your browser.

Any idea on where I would start looking? My wife uses winxp home and she doesn't have this problem... I turned off my virus scanner and firewall and opened up to sccept all cookies and it didn't help.

on this machine that does not host my forums I have my bbs running, dns server, trillian pro, firwall is disabled and avg is disabled.
Could this have anything to do with the fact that I changed from access97 to access2000 for a database? and I changed connection strings? Do I need to do a reset?
if you want to see my forums so you can see what happenes it's at http://www.rfrcomputers.com/snitz/

The machine that I host the forums on does not have a virus scanner or firewall installed. Nothing has changed on that machine in over a year... except for the occasional reboot. I like Snitz forums very much and would like to get this resolved... I hit "agree" in the policy.asp and it just redisplays the policy.asp file again. Please I really need to get this fixed. Anything..?
