Well I am trying Snitz Forum 2000 beside my old UBB forum. But Snitz is very slow. Several minutes just to show the default.asp. I am using Windows 2000 Server SP1, MS Proxy 2 with Packet filtering on, Merak mail server. I am using the access databasefile. There are NO errors in event viewer. But when I try to connect to the forum, it takes several minutes just to have the default.asp opened. What's wrong ?
I tried to connect both from outside and inside. And yes I ave installed the update for Proxy ;-) Have tried to disable the packet filtering off - no help :-(
I'd do some basic tests. The kind of time you're describing for a (presumably) empty forum to open makes me think of incorrect binding order in network protocols and such. I pick on proxy 'cause I can never seem to get it configured properly myself.
Double check your permissions between the web server and the database. Is the db on the same computer as the web server? If you're db is on a UNC path there are additional permissions considerations. There's a MS KB article on the subject somewhere.
Yes it is a empty forum. I have checked the permission over and over. The permissions are OK. The db is on the same server. And i am not using UNC path. If i can't get this to work - i will try to install MS SQL Server 2000 on the server and try it. Or maybe I should stay on my UBB ;-)

What is you DB connection, maybe it only a DB connection problem.

LOL ! I haven't seen the Access 2000 line! Now it say's: ******** Error Type: Microsoft JET Database Engine (0x80004005) Could not find file 'e:\iNet\www\Webs\warzone\db\snitz_forum.mdb'. /warzone/inc_top.asp, line 42 ******** And I know the file is in that directory and the strDBType is the correct one.
