Afternoon chaps.

Uploaded, configured 7.01 and all tickerty boo.

Read security suggestion of renaming database/folder and have done so, plus modified common.asp to reflect the path/name.

Can read, post and all but cannot access admin functions as it returns the following 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 0xd6c Thread 0x7ac DBC 0x8b7b024 Jet'.

/admin/common.asp, line 159

Line 159 reads:

158 'Set an active connection to the Connection object
159 adoCon.Open

As much as I can see it's almost as if it can't see the path to the database but as stated, it's evident it can as the forum is running fine...

Thoughts?

Hmm... moved it and renamed it again and all sorted.
