I have a ASP application with MS Access. I need to use transaction as there are server insert and delete statement.
oConn.beginTrans
Is it a correct way to use transaction? Would the server hang if there are around 10 (or less) concurrent users. Would the whole database being locked while a user is performing transactioin?
Has anyone successfully written an ASP page in JScript that implements transactions with a mySQL database?Please let me know - I'm having difficulty doing this.
For eg:In a asp page i have 2 insert statements & 1 update statements.All these 3 statements I am executing on same asp page by creating a connection object.But I want to make sure that if first 2 insert statements execute successfully, then only 3rd update is executed.
It is possible that after the execution of first 2 insert statements database goes down and 3 rd update statement does not execute at all.In short I want to treat these 3 statements as a single transaction block and ensure that either all the 3 or none of the statements are executed.
How do I control it in asp page?By writing stored procedures in database & executing it as a single transaction block(using begin transaction & abort or commit) it is possible.But is there a way to conrol this using asp?
Using the ASP 3 transaction functionality requires that the transaction flag is set as the very first code row, I understand. I now have a requirement to implement a transaction in one of the pages.
Unfortunately the whole site is based on SSI (server side includes) that are being picked up based on the users preferences. I have an index.asp page that does this selection, which is always loaded first. Is there any way around this, or do you guys have any other suggestions?
i am developing something , on one of the pages i have a download link. when the user clicks on the link he gets a download box on his screen. i would like to code in such a way that after the download gets completed then his balance stored on the database should be decremented.
I've got a webpage that calls some stored procedures with input variables. The procedures return recordsets and also some output variables. We're trying to get the values of the output variables. I've done this using the method I found in MSDN, as shown in the code below. The problem is that we believe doing it this way involves the use of the Microsoft Transaction Server (IIS transaction server). Is this true? (The SQL Server and IIS Server are on different machines and, I believe, a firewall separates them.)
I can't see why this method would use MTS. The problem is that in the past, we have had problems with MTS stopping for no reason, which causes the websites to not work. So my boss doesn't want to use any ASP code that relies on MTS. Not using the stored procedure output variables makes things way more complicated. So does this code really invoke MTS? And if it does, is there a way to obtain SP output variables without using MTS?
I am running SQL Server 7.0 with the latest service pack and IIS version 4. We do have an IIS version 5 server we can use if that matters. Code:
I am using ASP.I am using transaction safe table type InnoDb to create tables in MySQL.
I am accessing these tables from ASP using OLE DB provider for Mysql Version 3.0.When I issue a command like
conn.begintrans
I get the error "Provider does not support Transactions".
Pl. tell me how can I manage transactions for Mysql using the OLE DB provider.I thought of using MyODBC driver,but this driver always gives the recordcount as -1.
What is the best way to control is a transaction? I've done a little test and both of the examples below seem to do the job, but I was wondering which is the better method, this:
If err.number <> 0 Then conn.RollbackTrans Else conn.CommitTrans End If
Or this:
If conn.Errors.Count <> 0 Then conn.RollbackTrans Else conn.CommitTrans End If
I want to be able to log in a database any transactions my users perform. For example logging in, requesting a page, downloading a resource, logging out etc.
What is the most practical way to code this? I was thinking of trying to use an include file which would have a function to add a log in the database for each page on the site or when a particular action is performed.
I have a Development server that is running Win2k, IIS 5.0, and ASP enabled. I am trying to gain access to an Access 2000 DB located on a file server within my domain. I'm pretty sure I have all the correct permissions set, but I am having problems when trying to access the DB.
The error is similar to:
The Microsoft Jet Database engine cannot open the file '******'. It is already opened exclusively by another user, or you need permission to view its data.
I'm looking for ways to fix this... Microsoft suggests turning off the ability for IIS to sync passwords. Unfortunately, this is not a viable solution for me.
Is it possible to create a new virtual server that is a share to my file server? Put my ASP and MDB file in there and have it work? Anyone have any other ideas?
I'm working on a site that inserts records into an Access database and Access assigns an auto-incrementing id for the record. How can I quickly figure out what id that was just created? I seem to remember there being a function for this....
I want to move my only window shosted client to linux. The site they have access a Microsoft Access database with the below code but i can't get it to work under Linux.
I'm trying to access a table in a MS Access database using ASP but the name of the table is causing me some trouble. The problem is the table name has a space in it eg, "My Table".
If i try and access it using a query "SELECT * FROM My News", it says i cant find table "My". If i remove the space from the name (to MyTable) it works fine. But the trouble is its a customers database and i cant easily rename it because its linked to other tables and db's.
How can i access a table with a space in its name? I've tried "SELECT * FROM My_News" but that doesnt work either.
I have an ASP page needs to access a remote MS Access2000 database, I got error "The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the file 'F:Collect.mdb'. It is already opened exclusively by another user, or you need permission to view its data. ".
The 'F:' is a mapped drive from remote machine where the access database loactes. If I copy the database back to local box, no problem.
I'm looking to make an online multiplayer game which will utilize Access Database... basically I require thousands of people writing and reading from the same database... I was wondering if this is possible for that... or is mdb file restricted to 1 person at a time...
If it is limited what would you suggest as the best way to control an interactive online environment? .txt files possibly?
What is this all about? Generally I run against SQL Server but now I have to use access. The query I want to run is a simple double join
SELECT tblArtists.*,tblGenres.name AS genreName,tblPages.pageId FROM (tblArtists INNER JOIN tblGenres ON tblArtists.genreId = tblGenres.genreId) LEFT JOIN tblPages ON tblArtists.artistId = tblPages.artistId ORDER BY surName ASC, firstName ASC
Now If I run this question in access against the database it accurateley returns two posts. BUT When I paste the same query into an asp document and runs it with a fileDSN against the same database it returns nothing!? Is this some kind of joke from Microsoft?
I have an Access DB which contains couple of link tables. All these tables are from different databases. So each one has it's own database password. Since there is no way to save the password during the DSN creation. Then you need to manually type in the password each first time when open the table.
This causes the problem in ASP code during run a query. Since the table cannot be accessed due to the password protection. Is there any statement than can open a table and meanwhile pass the password in? Does anyone experienced with the similar situation?
I generate my codes using a generator. My problem is that I can not write into my Access database. I had gone to tools to allow access permission . still nothing.
I have a MS Access file that consits of 500 movie titles, I already upload this file onto Brinkster.com, but I don't know to code this into ASP or PHP so I can have an on-line database. Please help me code this Access file into an ASP or PHP file.
I have a field in my Access db which is used to put a category against a company, rather like Yellow Pages. The categories are held in another table in the same db. The Category field in my companies table is a look up field using this syntax
SELECT [categories].[ID], [categories].[Category] FROM categories;
My problem is when I want to list a company and do a response.write rs("Category") I get the ID relating to that category rather the description. How can I get the description instead?
I am using Access and ASP.I am just trying stuff out.I created an access database and put some validation in access on some fields. I created an ASP program to insert into my database. When I try to insert a record that validates OK with access rules all is fine. Then I type input that violates the access rules; I hoped to get a helpful message back. All I got was my message saying an error had occured and it was Error number 0 and native error 2097228. As I was testing I know it is due to failing a validation in access. I am learning I wanted to look up this native error, I cannot find it in access help or internet searches where would I look for native errors please? I know I need to validate client side that is not the issue it is understanding native errors!
I'm trying to search the Access database using 3 fields and I think there's a problem in my If statement...pls check it out for me.....I'm using ASP...this is what I'm trying to do:
If Request.Form("txtUser_Id") = "User_Id" and Request.Form("txtWeekNo") = "WeekNo" Then strSQL = "SELECT (MSD + Methods + Analysis + Architectures + Models + Studio + Elective1 + Elective2 + Elective3) AS PersonTotals, FirstName, LastName, WeekNo, Semester, StudioTeamName FROM tblpersons" strSQL = strSQL & " WHERE Semester=" & Request.Form("DaInBox") 'strSQL = strSQL & "WHERE Semester ='" & strSemester & "'" End If
I'm planning to change my database from MS Access to an SQL database. So, what do i have to change in my code for that?Is it possible to have multiple tables in SQL which are linked to each other?Are there pro's and contra's ?
I made a little app that selects data from a database depending whether there is a NO, in the YES/NO column. The data is exported to a txt file with aso. What i'm wondering is, is after the data has been downloaded to that txt file, how to write to the database saying all they were marked NO, go to YES.
I have never dealt with XML before, So this is way out of my realms...
I am trying to get a XML feed into an Access Database..
The XML source can be found here:-
but as you can see.. there is another problem.. the file is in a .GZ format.. so i need some way of Un-Zipping it onto my web host, and then importing the XML data into the database..
Ive looked around, and the only information i can find is un-zipping it onto a local machine, and then uploading the XML file.. but that's not practical.. i don't want my web page to be dependant on my PC at home being logged on...
As for the import of the XML to Access... that's another black hole there.. ive never done anything like this before..
I'm still very much on the learning curve when it comes to writing ASPs and have always used Access for my db. A colleague in work has told me that I should never use access on a commercial site where I'm likely to get a lot of traffic. Is this correct, is Access totally unsuitable?
Alright, I am opening an Access XP database via ASP. One of the fields is a numerical field, and I would like to force it to display the number + 1 digit to the right of the decimal. For some reason it is only displaying digits to the left. In Design View, my Access Table (names 'arlist') looks like this: Field Name: level, Data Type: Number, Field Size: Integer, Format: Fixed, Deciaml Places: 1
My SQL Statement: SELECT * FROM arlist;
Then the VBScript I'm using to access the table looks like this: Response.Write"<TD align=""right"" bgcolor=""" & strBG & """ width=""10%""><P class=""body"">" & rsDC.Fields("level") & "</TD>" & vbCRLF
I am opening the table via ADO Statically with a Read-Only pointer because the page just displays the contents of the table. I've tried everything I can think of to preserve the decimal place. If I view the table in Access, the decimal places are correct.
I have got a display page where im displaying Company ID Company Names with Their Products Added The data im extracting from the access DB The thing is as im adding a lot of products for a each company so im adding them in a loop in my Products table so each time i add a new product with the particular company id the the id gets repated as its in the loop as well and thus each time a new record is being genarated what i want to achieve is that on a display page where i want to see the data that has been added i just want to get the Company ID not repated and with all the products related to that company id and then the next Id with the products like ive got 20 products for a company ID 1 so i just want to show that company ID once and with all the 20 products and then go on for the next company ID how will u do this do i have to use the distinct thing or do i have to open another recordset and match the id
