I have just installed the forum it is uploaded permissions are set(I think)and i cant figure out how to open it. when i point the browser to it i get a you are not authorized to view this page error403     Dazed and Confused

 

Someone please help I am using windows with asp and databases supported. I just cant seem to get the forum to open so I can set the properties. I cant even get to any where to put user name and passcode

I was just able to get to the forum admin login page but it would not let me in using the provided username and passcode.

This is the error I got:-

 Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005'

[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver]General error Unable to open registry key 'Temporary (volatile) Jet DSN for process 0xa98 Thread 0xf08 DBC 0x1039258c Jet'.

/www/forum/forum/admin/common.asp, line 134

This is a database connection error, mena that the permissions to connect to the database are incorrect, try contacting your hosting company to get them to change the permisisons, or read the FAQ's in teh ASP section of this site to findout how to do it yourself.

If it is asking for a network password then you have a permisisons problem on that directory.

This is a permissions problem, either read the FAQ's in teh ASP section on how to corrctly set them, or if you don't have access to teh server contact your web host.
