This is the full message:-

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 0xb28 Thread 0x87c DBC 0xf1b024 Jet'.

/admin/common.asp, line 159

I have set the correct rights to the database, can now log on and post (with a couple of hiccups) but when I try to go into admin, I get this message.

Sorry to sound thick, but is that something I can do or the hosting site?

Can't use the physical address as suggested in the FAQ as it is not on my own server.

All runs fine on my own server, but that is not practical, and I need it on something that someone else looks after!

You need to change the database path in the common.asp file.

Read the documentation that comes with the forum.
