I know absolutely nothing about connecting Access databases. However, I know a tad bit of VB.NET (my site is written in ASP, though). I need some help connecting to the DB. Here's the script I'm currently using (I removed the database, account name and site name for security): Code:
I am at a loss trying to set the connection string to connect to an access db on a web server from a secure server! i have tried using the ipaddress of the webserver in the file name and the http: url but to no avail.
I've been setting up an off the shelf access website, in order to install SSL it requires me to copy over some checkout pages to a seperate SSL webserver on another domain. However those scripts need to connect back to the database on the non SSL server to pick up order and customer information.
This of course only works for scripts on the same server, is there a way of connecting to a database on another server? does it require a complicated path, or additional files or what not.
I am trying to get my asp page to connect to my Access database. The first time I run a page, it loads fine. Every time after that I get the following error:
Microsoft JET Database Engine (0x80004005) Could not use ''; file already in use.
My code to connect to the database is as follows:
Provider=Microsoft.JET.OLEDB.4.0; Data Source=C:Inetpubwwwrootwebdatabase.mdb; JET OLEDBatabase Password=password
Set cmdRecordset= Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Command") cmdRecordset.ActiveConnection = strConnection Set rsRecordset = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
After many hours trying I've found this to be an impossible task when the database is open by another user or is running as a service on a server.However, if you need to do this I've come up with a method.If you add some code to the exclusive database that exports the data to another database every hour then you can access the data that way.
Fair enough, it's not live data but if you do it on the hour every hour then you know when it's been updated.I'm just about to work on the VBA for Access.
I am trying to establish a connection in Dreamweaver MX 2004 and an Access database for a log in ASP page, but keep getting an error. I am trying to establish "Custom Connection String" and here's what I type into the boxes that pop up:
1) CONNECTION NAME: ConnectToMyDB (I know, here I can put anything) 2) CONNECTION STING: Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Data Source=C:Documents_and_SettingsJohn_SmithMy_Doc umentsJohnsSitedbJohnsWeb.mdb;
(tried with and without quotes around this)
3) Dreamweaver should connect: Using driver on Testing server
4) When I hit "TEST" I get an error "An unidentified error has occurred"
I am using Windows 2000. The database is in a db folder in the my defined site (moved it there). Is it the path I am typing in Dweaver or my Win2000 settings?
Hope someone can tell me what I am doing wrong. Is it my path to the database?
I have a db table with 3 rows (ID, date, points). How can I in my script tell that ID 1=Mike and ID 2=Thomas and ID 3=William without making a new field in my table?
I am trying to connect to remote mySQL db and getting "Data source name not found and no default driver specified" My connection string looks like this -
Conn.Open "Driver={mySQL ODBC 2.50 Driver}; Server=Station1; Port=3306; Option=4; Database=cds; Uid=andy" Is there anything wrong with it? I can't figure it out
how to fetch values from a specific record from access in asp.and how to compare data entered in a form with data in record and if comparison returns true then how to open desired page.
I have a form that submits the information to a SQL database. The form has a two radiobuttons name="Cheese" with value="yes" OR value="no" and then collects contact info.
The form submits to the SQL DB and I want to create a display page that will show the form and sort the form based on the name="Cheese" yes or no.
All yes values will display form info under the yes column.
All no values will display form info under the no column.
So there are two columns displaying the information based the results of the SQL row name=Cheese. How do I connect to the DB and "sort" the info based on this value and dynamically show this information on my site? Code:
I have just purchased my domain name, and subscribed to a hosting service that supports ASP. I tried to copy my asp files over to my new domain, and I get the following error:
The application is using arguments that are of the wrong type, are out of acceptable range, or are in conflict with one another.
The line that is referenced is:
MyConnection.Open DSNName
..here is the code I've been using on DomainDLX (free) to connect to the database ...
I am using a DSN connection created using Dreamweaver and an ASP page. The connection works fine on the local computer (i click the "test" button) but when I upload the files to my server I get the following error:
"Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005'
[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified
/mkoenig/survey.asp, line 120
and the line that it is referring to:
MM_editCmd.ActiveConnection = MM_editConnection
my editConnection is set to QUERY which is a DSN variable pointing to the database on my hdd?
is there a way i can map or find out the driver that the server i am on is using? and what is a 500 internal error of here is another question. i just upgraded to an NT server, i want to use ASP and databases etc,, what info do i need from my host to get this done?
Im using abyss web sever to run asp. Now Ive downloaded a specialst software called activehtml which will help run asp- my questions are not based upon this but are far simpler.
Im using frontpage to code asp and trying to connect a access database to it. Both the web server and database are on my laptop. My questions are as follows:
1) As the access database is on my laptop i.e. in a folder, how do I connect it to the asp page that I am coding? I do realise some sort of code such as Code:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server (0x80004005) [DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect()).]SQL Server does not exist or access denied. The Code I have used is Dim cnDB ' As ADODB.Connection Set cnDB = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") cnDB.ConnectionString = _ "Provider=SQLOLEDB;" _ & "Data Source=ENTERPRISE;" _ & "Initial Catalog=SchQry;" _ & "User ID=3453;" _ & "Password=aw33;" cnDB.Open

I am trying to connect to MySQL from ASP. Yes, i downloaded the mysql odbc driver and installed it. I have also set up the dsn correctly. connection is successful but queries are not being successfully executed. here goes the code:
In our office we use RMS (Residential Management System) and they use an MSSQL database to store all the data. we can access this database using access and have made several...several queries to pull out info, save it to another access database, then upload it to the web and pull data from it.
the server that houses the MSSQL database is online and i was wondering if it is possible to connect to it and pull out information. we wouldnt want to change anything, just view.

I've created a MySQL database and i'm trying to connect to it to retrieve data using MyODBC and ASP.. I tested it on IIS 5.0 but it keeps saying that it couldn't connect to the database..
I have got a scenario where an asp script needs to request via xmlhttp a file sitting on the same server. The code all works find on my local machine. However, on the hosting server, it does not. The problem is that I am on a shared server and the server can't "see itself", i.e. it's probably blocked by the host to receive request from itself. The problems comes in as the server will hold multiple sites and use host headers to channel request. I thought of using "localhost" and some kind of header sending scenario to get the server to go to the correct subfolder/virtual host. However, googling has not brought up much.
I have a webpage on my Local Host Server - IP: 127.0.0.1.I have a Access Database called "database.mdb" hosted on a Second Server in a folder called "db" -
