Everything works fine until I try to go into the Admin area... I then get:

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 0x814 Thread 0x7bc DBC 0x2045ee4 Jet'.

/forum/admin/common.asp, line 159

My permissions are set correctly - read/write on the access database

all I did was rename the wwforum file (and the coresponding entry in common.asp)

There are two common.asp files that need changing, you also need to change the one in the admin area.

Hello there, I've run into a similar problem when I have changed the virtual path directory and name.

I've changed both common.asp files, checked the names, and file permissions are checked. The board is running fine, however, I still get a similar error msg when I click on the Admin link.

Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005'

[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] '(unknown)' is not a valid path. Make sure that the path name is spelled correctly and that you are connected to the server on which the file resides.

/ptmath/board/forum/admin/common.asp, line 159

Suggestions? Thanks.
