Help with DB error!!!

Last night at midnight, the 5 MS patches got automatically applied to my web server. Since then my Access DB has not worked. I have tried all sorts of things to get it to work, to no avail (including changing permissions, using DSNs, alternative connectors, copying different databases, changing directories, etc).

The error displayed is:

Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80004005'

Unspecified error

/forum/common.asp, line 232

Line 232 is the command to open the DB. Everyone has Full Control to this file, the IIS admin shows write access to the file.

Earlier today, if looked like this site was having the same issue with the DB being down, and now it's fixed.

Can anyone help>?????

I re-installed the latest MDAC last night and I'm running Access 2000. I reconverted to Access 2000 format to check. Same error.

Just for reference...I can run this database just fine on my test server, which happens to be unpatched. My production server, which is patched, will not run the DB.

Just in case it was just Access, I was trying to convert to SQL. I can't even run the SQL setup script.

Oh yeah, and I uninstalled all five patches and still not running.

It's just very interesting that the patches were applied at 12:00 and all activity on my web site stopped then as well.

ummm. yeah. I've checked many many sites

I uninstalled / reinstalled Access and a bunch of other stuff.

Finally, I gave up and upgraded the site to SQL. It works fine now. Arghhh.
