Hi! Great to have someone to ask about this! I've checked if anyone else have this kind of problem but couldn't find any.

I installed the MySQL version of the Webwiz forum on an IIS server. Everything went great, I ran the automated asp script to set up the database and it completed successfully. I take it as evidence that the MySQL database and the myODBC connector is set up correctly. I also checked that the database is indeed defined.

However, when I try to access the forum page, I get an error 500.100 internal server error.

Technical information (for support personnel)

Error type:
Runtime error in Microsoft VBScript (0x800A01F4)
Undefined variable: 'strUsername'
/konsulterna/forum2/forum/includes/header.asp, line 134

Browser:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; sv-SE; rv:1.8.1.11) Gecko/20071127 Firefox/2.0.0.11

Page:
GET /konsulterna/forum2/forum/Default.asp

Time:

Anyone having any ideas here? I have a slight feeling I must have missed something glaringly obvious but cannot figure out what...

I translated the error message to English from Swedish btw, maybe it is not exactly the same as you would see it.

Many thanks in advance,

/Bruce

The file includes/header.asp doesn't have 136 lines of code, so either you have modified this file, or it is corrupted.

Try reuploading the original file again

Thanks -boRg- !

You were perfectly right (corrupted file) and re-uploading it solved the problem!
