The forum is setup already for a DSN-less connection.

The only thing you may need to do if you have to have the database in a different folder to the default folder is to change the path to the database in both the common.asp files.

DSN-less connections don't require a DSN setup on the server so are simpler to setup and reduce calls to the registry that are required for a DSN connection.

Hello,

I have already done this by changing DB path, but it gives following error:

Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80004005'

'd:\websites\sbkhan.net\wwwroot\webwiz\forum\data\wwForum.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.

/webwiz/forum/common.asp, line 260 "

I have hosted this forum on www.sbkhan.net/webwiz/forum/default.asp,

you can check the error also on above link.

Please help and advice.

Thanks.
