I've just downloaded a backup of the database for my forum, made 1 very small change, saved and reuploaded to the same directory.

I am now receiving an errror:

Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80004005'

'C:\sample\www\DB\sample.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.

/forum/common.asp, line 260



i've tried everything I can think of and can't get rid of this message

The error suggests that the Access database file is not where it should be.

Try updating the common.asp files with the correct location and name of the database.
