access database problems
when i try to run an asp.net page off an access database i get the following error:
Cannot start your application. The workgroup information file is missing or opened exclusively by another user.
I don't know what the work group file is, but i know it isn't opened exclusively by another user.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Nick

hmm, my old days of access are a bit cloudy, but it seems to me that the error you're getting is a file access error... umm, are you working with the database file in access at the same time that you are trying to run your script? This could be a cause, if memory serves me correct....

Disconnect from the DB in the server explorer toolbar by right clicking on it.
I had this problem also. The .NET IDE opens a connection to the DB, and this creates the error your talking about because it keeps it open. If you close the connection manually though, your app should start to work.
