Hi,

Looking for some help here! I uploaded WW forum and pointed my browser at http://www.appledaft.org/forum - www.appledaft.org/forum . Only to get the following error (I turned friendly HTTP errors off as recommended)

 Provider error '8000ffff'

Catastrophic failure

/forum/common.asp, line 176

I haven't altered any files. Is this a common problem? as I've run other .asp applicastions without a hitch. See http://www.appledaft.org/index2.asp - www.appledaft.org/index2.asp

I'm also using Personal Web Server in Dreamweaver 4 - do I have to select the database and choose Read Write and Execute before uploading it.

If anyone can help, I can gladly pass on my FTP login

Cheers
