I seem to be getting this error, and after Googling and searching this site, I still can't get a grip on it. I have a site on a server which is being developed for a national company who will offer this site to their members, hosting each on the national orgainzations servers. I have this string -
Which results in this error:
The '..' characters are not allowed in the Path parameter for the MapPath method
Ok, the common solution seems to be a configuration on the server, which wouldn't be a problem IF the site was to remain where it is. BUT, seeing as I will give this site to the client, who will host it on their servers, could this configuration "fix" be a problem, perhaps for security issues.
I am not able to connect to a MS Access Database..,, I am using a DSN Connection,
The Error that the asp page(having Database code) is showing everytime is....///
Error Type: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (0x80004005) [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the file '(unknown)'. It is already opened exclusively by another user, or you need permission to view its data. /airtickets/scripts/dbconn.asp, line 4
i havent opened the database bfore, & no other app. is accessing it ..
I am passing 3 hidden fields to another page using the method="post" Here is the next page - <% Dim fmMemberID, fmUsername, fmPassword fmMemberID = request.Form("memberID") fmUsername = request.Form("username") fmPassword = request.Form("password") %> <% Dim dbConn set dbConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") dbConn.ConnectionString = "DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; DBQ=d:inetpubcredencia.netfpdbmembers.mdb" dbConn.Open

Our hosting service migrated our web page from a Windows 2000 Server to Windows 2003. Our website is www.DisketteConnection.com.
I now intermittently receive error:
ADODB.Recordset error '800a0e7d' The connection cannot be used to perform this operation. It is either closed or invalid in this context.
/shopcart/shopdisplaycategories.asp, line 36
I believe line 36 is "rs.Close". I can include additional code or the code opening the file if you need it. I utilize Microsoft 97 Access Database.
The hosting service indicated the problem lies in that the current code was written for Windows 2000 server. Our original programmer is no longer with the company and I'm at a loss to determine how to address the issue.
i run asp in my standalone pc, using access2003 as the database, like this:
i hv 3 pages, 1st page, i open the database, extract data from database for display(closing the connection using "recordset.close" and "conn.close").... then i have form input for users to input some information...and post to 2nd page
2nd page, this page may load N times depending on the user input in first page...for each time loading, i hv form input for users to input the detailed information. and for 2nd to Nth loading, i will get previous page's form input information(request.form("xxx")), then insert into database ("conn.execute")and close it("conn.close")...
last page, this page get Nth loading user input information for the 2nd page, then open database, insert into database("conn.execute") and close it("conn.close")...
now the problem is like this...database can not store data correctly: it did not insert N rows into database....maybe N+1 or N+M...randomly...because same data is insert more than once, so some rows are just duplicated...it seemes that the connection just can not be closed and do insertion more than once during each time the 2nd page is loading or during the last page is loading...
can anyone help me to find out the problem? any suggestion?
I have an .ASP page with a form on it, which I want the info input into the form to be submitted to a database. I am trying to create a Custom Connection String in Dreamweaver but I am having a hard time. I set the path correctly, etc.
Is it not working because I am trying to run this with an Access database and it's on a Linux server? I thought i'd start out simple before I post a million pages of details.
I have a site with the directory structure like this:
wwwroot (where the default.asp and other pages sit)inc (where the includes are)login (where login pages are)otherDirs (where other pages are)datafiles (where database is)
I usually hard code the db connection path but want to use the MapPath now in case in the future my site moves servers (have been though that and having to manually change all db connection strings - Not Fun ) Code:
Wondered if anyone could help me out with some simple connection string problems I'm having.
Ive got this on the page so far and it works: ---------------------------------------------- Dim strConnString set strConnString = server.createobject("adodb.connection") strConnString.ConnectionString="DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};" & "DBQ=c:Inetpubwwwrootdlnforumforumadminwwforum.mdb" strConnString.open ----------------------------------------------- But I want to change it to a Server.MapPath method, so I tried the following: ------------------------------------------------ Dim strConnString set strConnString = server.createobject("adodb.connection") strConnString.ConnectionString="DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};" & Server.MapPath("forum/admin/wwforum.mdb") strConnString.open --------------------------------------------------- But now I get the following error: ------------------------------------------- Error Type: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (0x80040E4E) Operation was canceled.
I have uploaded the site and when I browse to I get the following error:
Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80004005'
'C:DBdatabase.mdb' is not a valid path. Make sure that the path name is spelled correctly and that you are connected to the server on which the file resides.
/inc/connect.asp, line 31 This is my database string
db_str = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Data Source=C:wwwuserDBdatabase.mdb;" What are we doing wrong?
Do we need to set up 'ODBC Drivers : Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)' in Hsphere? (If so, can anyone point me to a good tutorial please)
How do i connect to Oracle Database through ASP? I have Used the Following Syntax But it gives me ADODB .Connection error no as '800a0e7a' saying Provider Cannot be Found.
set objcn1=server.createobject("Adodb.connection") objcn1.Open "Provider=OraOLEDB.Oracle;Data Source=servername;User Id=abc;Password=cbs"
I just took up the task of learning ASP, done all the hello world stuff and then thought about the DB side of things and thought that a login system would be a nice place to start, so naturally I started with the registration page, and asp page to do the actual DB stuff, but it would seem I have a prob with Server.MapPath. So I edited my Register page to test and sure enough it doesn’t work, but it works when I make a page with just a .Write of the Server.MapPath Code:
Server.mappath always returns an absolute disk path to a file, regardless of if you pass a web path that starts from the root of the web or relative to the current directory.
chazukka's example will work fine as long as the script is executed from a page that's in the proper directory, i.e., a page that has subdirectory named database and the mdb file is in that subdirectory.
For example, assuming you're running /myweb/somewhere/myfolder/myasp.asp in a directory /myweb/somewhere/myfolder and the database file is in /myweb/somewhere/myfolder/database/mydb.mdb then
I have an asp app that connects to an Access database. It works properly at my work on XP with IIS5.1 running.
I zipped up the asp pages and the Access database and emailed it to my home, which is XP and runs IIS5.1. When I recreate my work environmnet at home and try to update the database I get the following error when the code hits my AddNew method.
Microsoft JET Database Engine (0x80040E09) Cannot update. Database or object is read-only.
I've tried going into Access/Security/Tools/User and Group Permissions and setting all the tables to be able to update. I've even created new ODBC drivers, but neither has worked. The database is not set to read-only.
where the querysting is something like "fname=this, that/this, that.xml".
I'm sure it's the comma, because if I remove it and rename the file and folder, everything works. I believe that a comma is a valid character in a folder or filename, so why does MapPath barf on it? Is there any way around this still using MapPath? Can someone point me to a source with a list of the valid characters the MapPath accepts?
I work with ASP for several weeks now and i really like it! But until now i have just used it in connection with my localhost. I made connections to a SQL Database and to an ACESS Database with using the ODBC Tool from WIndows!!
Now i want to publish my website but i don't know how to handle the connection string kind of thing. My MySQL-Database is on a different server than the website and i need a connection string where i can type in the server, a password and a username and it should then connect.
I am using ADODB.Connection to access an Access DB(mdb) on my website. I switch from one webhosting company to another and not my website can not connect to my access db. I have provided the code for your review.. Where is the problem.. How can I get the code to find the (MDB) database? Also I am connecting and testing is new web site via ip... His domain name is still pointing back to the old DNS address.. Code:
I'm using ASP to connect to a simple Access DB, it works fine once but when I refresh it gives an unspecified error from the line with the driver. I've had this happen before but not this often. Here is my connection string etc...
I have an ASP script that opens an Access DB and tries to record an IP address if the user has never visited the site. However, when the script is run, I get an error saying the the DB is read-only. I checked to DB propoerties and it is notlisted as read-only, and when I run my Query on it, it does not open the recordset as a read-only connection. I can only assume that something else has the DB r the table open, but Ihave no idea where.
I have put a chat site on the web that I have got off here a while ago. It contains an access db. I am now getting this error ;
ADODB.Connection.1 error '800a0bb9'
The application is using arguments that are of the wrong type, are out of acceptable range, or are in conflict with one another. /TheChatroom/includes/OpenDB.asp, line 5
It works on my PC through IIS 6. Does anyone know what is wrong?
I am using GoDaddy.com's hosting service. I am not sure if the problem is my code or their server. I use the following code as my connection to the Access Database: Code:
I really like this forum as I can usually find the answer to all my questions by searching, but I haven't been able to find a way to resolve this problem. This is my setup. We have 2 local servers. One running WinNT that handles all our internal databases in dbf formats. The other server is WinServer 2k3 and it handles all webstuff. The Win2k3 Server logs onto the WinNT Server and can see and open all the files. If I copy a file from the NT Server to the 2k3 server, I can utilize the database using the connect string:
but, I cannot connect to it directly on the other server. I believe it is a permissions issue, but if I change the Annonomus Access user to one that can access the other server, it asks for a password. I have even tried a virtual server but cannot find a connection string that will allow me to access it.
I copied it to my dev PC and setup site in Dreamweaver. I have a local site, a testing server which points to a different location and I am using IIS5.1 virtual directory for connecting.
Strange thing is, I keep getting error "Provider (0x80004005)" after some usage. Now it is on the .Open method of an ADO COMMAND. It looks like everytime I try a second .Open I get the error. for example the first access checks User/Pass and returns info. 2nd access tries to open list of all users for admin.
The database is not being locked for exclusive anywhere I can see.
The directory/database security is all setup for the IUSR account (and first connections work anyway) I would hazard it is a locking issue but not sure why.
As I said this site is suppose to be functional, loading in DWMX2004 and using a test server on my local machine however causes a problem.
I have an asp page with a form. I want the add the values to a Microsoft Access table. The name of the table is "seminars" and the fields are "company, phone, email, etc.". How i can create a connection from asp page to the Microsoft Access database?
