Re: Error trying to connect to Access Database

Just read your note. I am running IIS on Windows XP SP2. FrontPage 2003 and
Access 2003. When I installed IIS, I asked for the front page extensions. I
am fairly new to access. If you could please point me to the web site that
tell you how to set up front page extentions and also the one that tells you
how to create the database. I am not trying to get into the database from
front page, the scripts are in front page and the database created in access.
The need to update the database which I am doing from IE.

Thanks
Dee

Thats not the way access db's work in frontpage.

Create your db
Create your web
Create a subweb
Load the FP server extentions
Import the access db into the web
Create the page that will access the db in frontpage
Select the imported db as the source.

You will not be able to get into the db from frontpage. You need to run
Access to open the DB.


Oh. There is a great deal of info regarding this subject on the knowldge
base in the MS website. I have only created 2 websites that use access (I
use them to store the usernames and passwords) but I am not really that good
with frontpage so I did what most people do and that is to simply follow the
MS site knowdgebase articales word for word.

Good luck with your project.

Hope this helps - saturday night - off out - taxi is booked for 5 mins.

I have done what Douglas has stated, but I do not have a security tab when I
click on the
properties tab. I am also reading from the link you sent me. How do I get
this to run outside of front page, it needs to be in the inetpub directory.
when I try to run this in netscape it want to open the .asp file or save it.

Thanks

Hi Dee

Douglas has given you a few ideas - have you tried them. Also look at the
site and see if any of the items refer to your DB.
http://www.webwizguide.com/asp/faq/access_database_faq.asp

why would it make a difference if I was running this in front page, this is
how I am designing the web site.
If you are designing a DB to use in a frontpage web you should seign the DB
"then" include it into the web. You may find it difficult to get into the DB
from Frontpage as you need to be running access to get into an Access DB with
the corect permissions.

This is what is in the calendar_script.asp string with line 35

objConn.Execute(strSQL)
Set objRS = Nothing
objConn.Close
Set objConn = Nothing

I do not know how to check IUSR_<machinename. The directory, folders,
etc., I took the read only off. How do you set that for RWXD. I know how to
do this lin Unix and Linux, but not in windows.

Thanks

Without knowing what line 35 in updateCalendar_script.asp is, it's pretty
hard to suggest anything.

Does the application work otherwise? Are you able to apply any updates to
the database? If not, does the security context running the ASP page
(usually IUSR_<machinename>) have the necessary permissions (RWXD) on the
folder where the MDB file is located?

I am running windows xp sp2, Office 2003. I have down loaded all updates
for windows and office, made sure the folders are not read only. made sure
the database is 2002-2003, went to %systemroot%:\Program Files\Common
Files\System\Ole db and typed regsvr32 sqloledb.dll.

I do not know what else to do, and I am trying to get a web site done.
Also
I am using frontpage 2003, why is it my .asp files do not run in any other
browser. When creating a web site I test the most important browsers. In
this case it wants to open or save the file.

Thank you
Dee
