hi there, i have the same problem here, on the line 176 in the file common.asp

I don't know at all what should be the problem but i have maybe a clue : I can't open the database of the forum, even if i use Access 2000.  I've got a message telling me that the database was maybe created with a posterior version of Access.

So maybe it's for that reason ?

It seems that you have to change the statement below in both copies of common.asp (one in the admin folder and one in the forum folder)

strDbPathAndName = "admin/wwForum.mdb"

I changed this statement in both copies of common.asp and moved the renamed file to another folder and it worked great!!!

Thanks go out to fernan82 for pointing me in this direction.

hi again...

 

Ok i checked it, and as for me, this is the reason the forum was not working, with the error on the line 176 :

- I downloaded and used the Access 2002 version and my hosting service can just accept 97 & 2000 databases.

So i downloaded the 2000 version and installed it, and everything is fine and working !

I guess mayble the other guys made the same error as i did !

sorry for bothering u !

Charles

By the way, in the languauge.inc file, the french translation, the are some ' symbols missing in the disclaimer text and the forum's not working if you don't add it.

I triesopening the database and it worked... i use Access 2002 (XP). and i still get the same error.

I also tried to download the new version (v.7 beta 3) and it works fine, so the problem is some where in the file!!!

yes but is your hosting service compatible with Access 2002 ?

(maybe it's working locally with pws but not on line)...try uploading on line the 2000 version !
