I'm playing with this basic content management system I found. I did what it said in setting the permissions to be able to 'write' to the database, but now when I go to try to log in, it gives me this error. Can anyone help?

Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005'

[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver]General error Unable to open registry key 'Temporary (volatile) Jet DSN for process 0xb90 Thread 0xf68 DBC 0xaf6b074 Jet'.

/elab/simplePages/admin/admin_functions.asp, line 36

Thanks,

Dan

what driver/version are you using? And IUSR_CompName has Write/Modify permissions?
?

Um, the database has write permissions, not modify (should it have modify as well?)

Not sure what you mean by driver/version?

From our website:

Since we are using the latest MDAC it is not compatible with Access 97 databases. You may find that your database worked originally, however once you write data to the database it will throw this error. If this is an Access 2000 database it is likely that is it corrupted. Should you be using an Access 97 database please convert it to the 2000 version via Access 2000 or later.


If it's not an Access database, login to your control panel and give the entire directory "modify" permissions, or simply email support@hostmysite.com with the error and we'll do so for you.

Yes. These permissions are not something that you can set yourself. Ontop of that, last I knew, hostmysites file permission tool didn't exactly work. So you need to put your database in a folder by itself and email support@hostmysite.com to have them assign write/modify permissions to the folder.

I set the permissions on the folder containing the database to write/modify.

I still get this error.

I also gave the whole 'simplepages' directory modify permissions (including subfolders).

OK, I just looked at the code and figured out the problem...my path to the database was missing something.

It works now. Thanks for your help!

Actually, both are working quite well. Wink

Very cool... Wink

It's an invaluable tool, and has the possibility of cutting down on support calls (to those people that realize they can do things themselves Smile)
