CryI am just trying to setup this forum right now and get this error:
 

Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server error '80040e37'

Invalid object name 'tblDateTimeFormat'.

/infoed/forum/functions/functions_date_time_format.asp, line 78

I've reuploaded all files and still get the error. Any ideas?

What version did you download? Did you run the SQL Server Setup File? It appears your tables are not yet created....
Make sure you have SQL Server or mySQL installed depending on what version you downloaded. If you have neither, download the MS Access Version for testing.

argh.. you're right.. i'm an idiot...
except now I'm getting the error:
Error Connecting to database on SQL Server

Check the following is set up and correct:-

SQL Server User Name
SQL Server Password
Name of the SQL Server
Database name set up by you on the server
Empty Database set up by you on the SQL Server

Check also that you have entered the correct details in the file 'database_connection.asp' found in the 'database' directory.

Is it true that when if I open the database_connection.asp page and it opens blank with no error than the string is correct? If so.. i'm not sure what's wrong here....

no, you need to open the file in notepad, the acutal asp does not do anything for you, it's just being included for connection variables....
 
Open it in NP and edit the info for server name, db, user, password.

Yes, I had done that so the database_connection.asp holds all the correct data from what I can tell -

sigh.. this must be a problem from my provider...

  1. Enter connection details in 'database/database_connection.asp'
  2. upload files to server
  3. run 'MSSQL_server_setup.asp' by entering the path to it in your web browser
  4. Fill in the form and hit submit.
  5. Post any errors you may receive, here.
Handyman man?

Hi!
 
I hope, that I am not stealing this tread. dcleslie: If you feel I am stealing just say so, and I will make my own tread:)
 
Anyway, I have the excact same problem.
I have setup the database/database_connection.asp and uploaded it with the rest of the files.
When I run the MSSQL_server_setup.asp, and enter the information I get the error-message, that dcleslie got in hes third post. (Error Connecting to database on SQL Server)
 
I have three suspicions as to what could be the problem:
 
1. In the database/database_connection.asp I have entered:
 strSQLServerName = "localhost"
since that is what my ISP has told me to enter. Is localhost a valid value? Or should it be the name of my domaine?
 
2. I may be typing in the wrong information in the MSSQL_server_setup.asp-form. What is the difference between the SQL Server Username and SQL Server Username for creating tables?
 
3. The text says: Enter a username and password in the box below that has table creation/modification rights at the SQL Server database you are using. Will I have that kind of rights? From my ISP I have only recieved:
 
MySQL:
Host:                   localhost
Database:               aaa
User:      aaa
Password:     *********

Thank you.

If you think the conenction information is correct, did you ever check the actual db to see if the tblDateTimeFormat is there?
