Hello.
While cranking up the security of our small discussion board, I moved the database outside the htdocs directory and into the private directory and reset the two common.asp files to the physical address:
e:\domains\e\domainname\user\private\newname\newname.mdb
and the site works fine. But when I try to compact and back up the database I get an error message
error '800a0034'
/forum/admin/compact_access_db.asp, line 121 Line 121 reads: objFSO.CopyFile strDbPathAndName, Replace(strDbPathAndName, ".mdb", "-backup.mdb", 1, -1, 1) Do I need to edit something in here? Thanks for any and all help. |

Sometimes I have had problems with the files just being corrupt. You might be able to fix it just by re-downloading WWF and then overwriting compact_access_db.asp with the new one  Also you will get a better response in the support forum as it is an error with WWF not your mistake  |
