I have secure web site using ASPLogin. It just got put it on a new server and is using IIS 6. The site is working fine except under one condition. This problem didn't occur when the site was on IIS 4 or whatever NT 4.0 was supporting at the time.
If I email a direct link out to a customer, or copy/paste it into a browser. Like the link below, the following happens: http://www.xxx.com/xxx/default.asp
User clicks on link and brings them to the login page and keeps track of the page they want to go to after they log-in.
http://www.xxx.com/asplogin.asp?asplReq=%2FXXXs%2Fdefault%2Easp%3F
Once they hit the login button, they get the below error:
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 0x13b0 Thread 0x1258 DBC 0x18cb024 Jet'.
/xxx/default.asp, line 3
If you go to the login page naturally, you login fine to the homepage.

Any ideas?

One of the reason for getting this error is if you are using Access 97, which doesn't work well on newer OS's.
Try upgrading the database using Microsoft Access to Access 2000 or newer.
If you are using Access 2000 or newer then it could be a database driver issue, try reinstalling the MDAC database drivers on the server.
If you totally stuck upsize the database to SQL Server as Access is slowly being dropped by MS from IIS and doesn't work at all under x64 bit.

We're using Access2003. Asplogin doesn't work or work well in SQL so we're stuck there. The machine is a new machine and believe the MDAC is okay.

Maybe you should contact the people you got the AspLogin from and ask them for support on this.

HAHAHAHA. The people at ASPlogin don't support anything! This post did get us to investigate other things and we just fixed it! It was the path to the DB. It was correct but not for that situation. Not working the path was...db/asplogin.mdb and now it's /db/asplogin.mdb. So it was trying to see the DB file in what ever directory you were trying to access. Stupid mistake. Thank you for your help.
