Hello,
 
I've just installed the forum (Access version with database moved) and when I try to access to the admin section (connected with administrator) I have a error 500.
 
- I tried to uncheck the debug option in IE, same simple message
- I tried to create a test account, same message
- I changed some fields in Administrator profile, it's ok, so the path to the database and its permissions look fine
 
So, I'm very confused. Any idea please ?
 
ps : excuse my poor english Wink

please turn off HTTP friendly error messages which will then give the real error, that will help in finding the problem.

also as you moved the databse, make sure you changed the database path within both common.asp files.

oine within the forum main folder and one within the admin folder. you will have to reflect the path changes within both files.

Ooops !
 
In fact I've modified first the common.asp in the root, and made exactly the same thing (copy/past) in the subfolder admin (wich requires one more "../") Embarrassed
 
Now that I've made the right correction I can go on.
 
Many thanks Smile
