If you have Snitz working on your computer, just upload those files to your webspace via ftp.
Change config.asp to reflect the correct database type (MySql) and change the connection string accordingly.

Then run setup.asp

If you get errors, post the url to your forum here along with a copy of the error.

The ForumCo automated installer only supports Access DB's.

"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 :
SQLState: S Native Error Code: 1102 [TCX][MyODBC]Incorrect database name '632493655423621250.sql'"


I have tryed wich access and 632493655423621250.mdb, and mysql and 632493655423621250.sql.

my strConnString points to the database. but i still get the problem?

I think the problem is in the database, it cant open the database or something. my host dont support access, therefor i convertet the access database to mysql, and upload it to my website. do i miss something?

Iam new in this, so if its some stupid question then sorry me and just help

'632493655423621250.sql' is not a valid MySql database name. Its a text file.

Edit these lines in config.asp

Change 'strDBType = "mysql"

to

strDBType = "mysql"

and


strConnString = "driver=MySQL;server=SERVER_IP;uid=UID;pwd=PWD;database=DB_NAME" '## MySQL

to look something like this (insert the data your host gave you for connecting to MySql)

'strConnString = "driver=MySQL;server=127.0.0.1;uid=MyUsername;pwd=MyPassword;database=Snitz" '## MySQL

Then run setup.asp

Do you need to import data from another database or do you want to start from the beginning ?

You cannot use the auto installer for Sun One for two reasons;

1. Your host does not support Access
2. The fixes that ruirib posted are not present in that version.

If the auto installer copied the files to your server you will need to download the 4 files in ruiribs two links and apply the changes. Then re-upload them to your server.

The four files are

inc_iconfiles.asp
inc_func_common.asp
admin_config_email.asp
config.asp

Hmmm... i have made a faul, my strconnsting was:
strConnString = "driver={MySQL ODBC 3.51 Driver};option=16387;server=localhost;user=(myuser);password=(mypassword);632493655423621250.mdb;" '##MySQL w/ MyODBC v3.51
Witout DATABASE.

When i use this strconnstring:
strConnString = "driver={MySQL ODBC 3.51 Driver};option=16387;server=localhost;user=(myuser);password=(mypassword);database=632493655423621250.mdb;" '##MySQL w/ MyODBC v3.51

i get this faul:

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 :
SQLState: S Native Error Code: 1045 [TCX][MyODBC]Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: YES)


My password is right and everything..

& Yes, i have edited ALL the 4 files ruirib and u told me before..

The database name is incorrect - 632493655423621250.mdb
That is an Access database not a MySql one.

I think you should ask your host what the name of your MySql database is and include that instead of the .mdb file name.

Indeed. Access will never work in a Linux / Unix server!

There are posts on the Help: Database: MySQL forum about that. Have a look.
