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 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
Dim rsMember
Set rsMember = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
rsMember.Open "SELECT * FROM Members WHERE MemberID=179", dbConn,
%>
I've got a question about connecting to a access database. I would like to "convert" the following code:Code:
<%
' FileName="Connection_odbc_conn_dsn.htm"
' Type="ADO"
' HTTP="false"
' Catalog=""
' Schema=""
' MM_Test_STRING = "dsn=xxxx;uid=xxx;pwd=xx;"
MM_Test_STRING = "dsn=robertjandb;"
%>
to code where a connection is being made without dsn. Could anybody help me?
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 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.

i havent opened the database bfore, & no other app. is accessing it ..
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 -
openStr = "driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};" & _
"dbq=" & Server.MapPath("../databases/srt.mdb")
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.
Set conn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
conn.Open "DRIVER={SQL Server}; Server=;Database=pubs;Uid=myUsername;Pwd=myPasswor d;"
Instead of database, how can I set the DSN in this connection string?
DSN is DSNName. I am trying to connect to a SQL Server 2000 database.
We currently have custom error logging setup on all of our websites. We
have IIS setup to redirect to our custom 500-100.asp page which logs the
error to a database and then redirects to a friendly error message page.
Last week we were working on a pretty troublesome error on our intranet site
and noticed huge discrepencies between the IIS Log and our error log
database. On this particular day for this particular site, the IIS Log has
literally thousands more errors logged than our database does.
I am very familiar with ASP error logging and completely understand how our
current system is working. I've been given the task of figuring out why
there are more errors in the IIS Logs than in our "dbSiteErrorLog" database,
the destination db of our custom 500-100 page.
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...

MdbFilePath = Server.MapPath("/db/news.mdb")
MyConn.Open "Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; DBQ=" & MdbFilePath & ";"
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.

View Replies View RelatedI 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:
DBConnect.Open "Driver={Microsoft dBASE Driver (*.dbf)};DriverID=277;Dbq=;"
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?
View Replies View RelatedCan anyone point me to a connection string for ASP to connect to an MS
Access database using a username and password?
I am using WIN XP, IIS 5.1 and MS Access as database support. I set up the file security to include IUSR_MYNAME on the permissions list for all my web files, DB and scripts.
I set up and ODBC connection (system) and linked it to my Access database file.
I am however getting the same error when I try to load any ASP page on the line where I command the script to open the connection. Are there any local security issues I am forgetting?
Set conn= Server.Createobject("ADODB.Recordset")
Conn.Open "MyAlias"
that's where I get the error.

What is the best and most efficient connection type to connect to an access database (MDL, DSN, ODBC, OLE-DB, etc). Right now i'm using an OLE-DB connection which is the best according to one site, but I saw on another site that said DSN was the best.

I was wondering if i can create an if/else statement that checks if my connection string that opens a database ie:
cnnDB.Open Application.Contents.Item("CONNECTION_STRING" )
(the actuall connection string is in my global.asa file incase u were wondering) ...or if the database can't be found or opened, will run some other code... like a message?
hope u get what i mean.
this is just incase a user has the DB opened, or is in the process of overiting the DB or something, the page would not display that Microsoft JET Database Engineerror but display a message i set up in the if/else statement.

View Replies View RelatedI have been trying to get an intranet search page to work that looks at an Access database. The database is called database.mdb, and lives in the root of the site, as does the .asp (security is not a problem at the moment). The code was taken from an asp website. I am running .net and Windows server 2000.
Could someone look at the code and tell me if it looks OK for connecting to the database? Then at least I can rule out code as the problem I am having.(receiving error codes)

View Replies View RelatedI would be glad of some help being new to ASP.
I manage my department information through an Access relational database and an http network model database. Naturally enough I want to combine them.
We have an old NT driven LAN with pc's running Win 9x or XP pro. The file server is nearly up to capacity on storage and bandwidth, the new XP machines have plenty. The network is backed up daily. If possible I want to use the XP m/c as a web server.
I want to use IIS and ASP from an XP m/c to read and write to databases on the file server but can't seem to get the connection string right, I have tried many, with and without DSN's. Having checked up on IIS (installed on XP pro) I suspect that it can only connect locally. Certainly everything runs on a test setup in C:/inetpub/wwwroot which can be accessed across the LAN and ASP runs fine.
i want to open a connection for password protected database but i don't want to write password in code as it can be seen by my host provider and misused is there any way I can read database password without writing it in my code.
Set cN = Server.CreateObject ("ADODB.Connection")
cN.Open "DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; password=joy; DBQ=" & Server.MapPath("db1.mdb")
above example works fine but i dont want to write password in my code is there any way i can do it.
How do i detect whether the database connection is open or not in a asp page?
