Hello
I have tried moving a fully working forum over from my staging server to my live server, its all self contained in one directory but for some reason it refuses to work. The database is a simple access one and thats all self contained too so the path should have to change there.
Am I wrong in thinking its more than just copying and pasting?
all pages come up with an error except setup.asp does load but which simply tells me its all setup. I can't see any obvious problems with IIS and the rest of the website runs just fine.
Im a bit confused by this? anything I've missed or anyone else having the same problem?
The version is have it the latest stable download from this site
Regards
Adam |

Have you tried doing what the error message suggests?

i cant do what the message suggests and contact the site as i have control of the site! I have been thrown into the deep end with this site which perpetually seems to go wrong in the most cryptic manner it can. I t was made in the most complex way possible and i cant contact the guy who made it :D :D :D

| It's not the site creator that you need to contact, it's your service host. The server is having issues. |

thanks Dave, I had a look into IIS and I turned off nice error messages.
Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80004005'
Operation must use an updateable query.
/forum/inc_func_common.asp, line 189
This is the new message, is this something I can change within IIS settings or an external service provider fault?
Regards

Thanks for the help, it was a permission issue, the folder the database was in didn't have write functions.
thanks again for all the help everyone! |
