To find out what the error is, add something to spit it out on the page just
after the loop, or remove the On Error Resume Next, eg.
If Err.Number <> 0 Then
Response.Write "Error occured: " & Err.Number & " " & Err.Description
End If
That way you can see what the error is when it happens, and start working to
resolve it. Without knowing the error number there's not much you can do. It
could be down to record locking for instance - Jet is not a reliable
multiuser database, and if you've got too many "users" accessing it at the
same time it's possible one will prevent another from reading the next
record - and then you're stuck until that lock is resolved. To avoid this
sort of thing you can try some of the following:
Ensure all recordsets are forwardonly readonly - this is normally the
default in ADO
Keep any editing of recordsets as quick as possible - don't use
Pessimistic locking if you can help it, and don't start editing a record and
then have your code do some long calculations before finishing changes and
issuing the .Update, as the record will be locked the whole time.
Make sure you're running Jet 4.0 as it has row level locking rather than
page level, and ensure that row level locking isn't being disabled.
For high traffic sites I'd recommend you move away from Access - I used to
use it on my web server and moved to SQL Server when I started getting
frequent timeouts and record locking issues, and poor performance when
searching for records. Haven't looked back since :)
