Have you included the username and password ?

i.e. it should look like this

'strConnString = "driver={MySQL ODBC 3.51 Driver};option=16387;server=SERVER_IP;user=UID;password=PWD;DATABASE=DB_NAME;"

Doesn't look like any of the files are there/accessible, are you sure you've uploaded them correctly?

The files are there alright - http://64.62.156.125/forum/

Are you on Windows 2003 ? If so, you have to explicitly allow asp pages to execute by changing the relevant setting in IIS.

Ah yes thanks i just asked my support and i got this reply.

Your account is under .NET server. You can't run ASP there. We need to move youraccount to our windows standard server if you want to be able to use ASP.

If i move my account t the windows standard will my website still work correctly as it is built in visual developer 2005?
Sorry a real noob with all this.

Still a bit confused on if my connection string is setup correctly?

Well, that's going to depend in part on how your host set things up... technically Windows 2003 will let you run Classic ASP and .NET side-by-side. But, based on what your host just sent you it sounds like they don't have it set up that way. You'll really have to ask them. I'm surprised they don't have it set up so you can run either/or/both as you wish.

As for the connection string, you'll need to get the server processing the pages before we'll be able to find out if its working or not.
