To everyone, my bad on not removing a quote for the DSN line, I now have it running - now the real fun starts

Happy new year, I'm sure I'll be back soon....

In test I've done the forum certainly performs allot faster using theDSN-less connection it comes with and with much less problems.]]> Sat, 27 Dec 2003 13:36:01 +0000 https://forums.webwiz.net/data-source-name-not-found_topic8358_post43262.html#43262 <![CDATA[Data Source Name not Found : Did you setup the DSN on the server...]]> https://forums.webwiz.net/data-source-name-not-found_topic8358_post43259.html#43259 Author: michael

Did you setup the DSN on the server itself? It is not enough to specify a DSN if you use it, you also need to create a preferrably Machine DSN on the webserver computer. You might want to try not using DSN as it may prove better performance.]]> Sat, 27 Dec 2003 13:31:57 +0000 https://forums.webwiz.net/data-source-name-not-found_topic8358_post43259.html#43259 <![CDATA[Data Source Name not Found : Make sure you&#039;ve typed the...]]> https://forums.webwiz.net/data-source-name-not-found_topic8358_post43257.html#43257 Author: weppos

Make sure you've typed the right path to your database folder. ]]> Sat, 27 Dec 2003 13:30:14 +0000 https://forums.webwiz.net/data-source-name-not-found_topic8358_post43257.html#43257 <![CDATA[Data Source Name not Found : Hi - I&#039;m just getting started...]]> https://forums.webwiz.net/data-source-name-not-found_topic8358_post43250.html#43250 Author: DanMcc

Hi - I'm just getting started with WWiz - please bear with me as I try to get things working.  First, I changed the two common.asp files to use a DSN and I changed the location of the wwforum.mdb to /fpdb/wwforum.mdb  (you guessed it - I'm using FP 2003)

I put a link to default.asp on a new page on my site..

I get the error message

Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005'

[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified

/forum/common.asp, line 249

I didn't change anything on that line.

You can try yourself at

thanks in advance,

dan
