| You may also want to check to see if there is a lock file on the site. ie: wwwForum.ldb <-- I think that is the correct extension type. It would be located in the same directory as the database. Typically, for a web application, this lock file has no effect on the use of the database but you never know. Either that or it may be possible that the connection to the database is not being closed correctly and their are open active connections that have some how locked the database. I don't know about this one though, just a thought. |

a .ldb file is created by Access when it doesn't shut down properly, when you first install WWG Forum the fileill be a .mdb and then as the Forum is used a .ldb will be formed as well. |
