I have an access database that I need to put online for basic viewing. However, the database is also used by other people for updating and report printing. The web server and the access database are on two seperate servers. I cannot connect directly to the database cause if somebody has it open, the website will not work and for some reason I cannot connect to to database across servers. I tried a linked database, but asp will not recognise it.
I know that I could put all the reports and stuff online, but I have till next week
and I do not think that I can do it in this short a time. Any ideas will be helpful and if there is code that I need to manipulate I could try to do it. And also I do not have rights to configure the IIS option on the servers.
I am trying to connect to my access DB. I am developing my site in Dreanweaver and I have the site hosted already. I want to use the hosts server as my testing server.
When I create a connection string to the DB I have to use the servers directories. ex: e:/hshome/site/something.mdb When I try to add a server behavior to a form it can't find the DB. What am I doing wrong ?
I'm having a hard time figuring out what type of database is used and where the file is located and how the script is even acessing it. From what I've done in the past with ASP a file was always used that had a DSN, username, and password.how this code is access the database without a username/password/DSN? I've tried using the login info in the line that is commented out (line 2) but it wouldn't let me in so I guess this isn't being used. Code: Set objDbConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") 'objDbConn.Open "driver={SQL Server};server=db1.host.com;database=databasename;uid=login;pwd=password;" objDbConn.Open application.contents("strconn") Set rsQuery = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset") rsQuery.ActiveConnection = objDbConn rsQuery.open "sp_MajorList"
Set rsetQuery = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset") rsetQuery.ActiveConnection = objDbConn
I am currently trying to get back into ASP and have begun looking at an old webpage I developed some years ago, it was fully functional back in 2002 and I had it up and running with no problems. I have just recently bought a new PC with Windows Vista Home Premium on it and installed IIS. When I try and connect to my data base I get the following error message retunred:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005'
[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Disk or network error.
What is the best way of connecting to a database? Is it creating an application level variable which is shared by all users ? Or is it a session level variable for each session ? Or is it a connection in each procedure ? Or Should it be like opening the connection when the database is accessed and closing it immediately which means multiple opening and closing in the same procedure.

I've got a database on my web server and when I create the connection using a custom connection string within Dreamweaver, it connects with no problems. However, Dreamweaver then doesn't see the tables in the database.
I know there's an issue with SP2 and Dreamweaver but I've installed the patch and it hasn't made any difference. Does anyone know of another work around?

However i have created a useDatabase.asp file which contains functions for connecting to the database. I use an include statement and call the function but seem to always receive an error which dissappears when i remove the function and paste the code. Code:
How do you connect to your database(oracle9i) upon clicking a button? Let's say I have a text box which ask for a specific date, then upon clicking the button, the script will connect to the database and extract records based on the input date.
I'm a PHP developer and i've been asked to do some development for a site which is on a web server which only supports ASP. I had planned to have a bash at writing an ASP program (first time) on this server which will interact with a MySQL database on another web server (my company's web space).
Would this be possible, or should I try and set up the database on the same server as the ASP pages (this may cost money, which is why i'm hoping the first option will be possible)?
In my latest school project, i would need to use ASP to connect to a remote database that is NOT located on the ASP server. I was wondering if this is possible?

Can anyone tell me how to get hold of and re-instal odbc drivers to allow me to connect with ACCESS data bases.

I eventually managed to create a connection between my IIS LocalHost ASP WebPages and my database located on a website on the net. Here is the solution:
Dim conn, connect set conn=server.CreateObject ("adodb.connection") connect = "Provider=MS Remote; Remote Server=http://www.example.com; Remote Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Data Source=" & server.mappath("database_filedatabase.mdb") & ";" conn.Open connect
When I point my connection to my database on the net like in the code above I get the following error:
Error Type: Microsoft ADO/RDS (0x800A2011) Internet Server Error: Object/module not found.
Error Type: Microsoft VBScript runtime (0x800A01A8) Object required: '' /theborg/includes/dbconnect.asp, line 4
I can't figure it out. It worked fine while testing in access. Though there is no data in the SQL database yet. But when I try to populate the data I get the same result
dbconnect.asp:
Code:
<% Dim objConn objConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.CONNECTION") objConn.Open "DSN=Assimalation" %>
