Access problems. Again

[pax]

Hi again.

Regarding this thread:
http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.php?threadid=295720

It's not solved actually. I thougt it was, but then I tried to change some data in dataset and do an update. Then it complained about needing an updateable query.

Has something changed radically since Framework V1.0?
Keeping in mind, that this project have worked just fine until now.

So, does anyone have webapplication where you both read and write to an access DB?
If so, may I see your connectionsstring, and some screenshots of your IIS settings for the application?

Thank's.

You need to give your user the correct permissions on the folder that contains the Access database.

Hi.

Thank's.

But can you please tell me how to do it like I'm 4 years old?

I'm just running the app from LocalHost, so shouldn't I allready have those permissions?

I have also tried putting the DB in the same folder as the ASPX files. I also tried to put it in the Bin directory. None worked.

The only change in system that I can think of is that I have formatted my harddrive in NTFS. Before it was FAT32. I don't know if that means anything or not.

Thank's again

Hi.

I'm using Win XP Pro with SP1, and IIS 5.1 (I think...I'm not at my own PC at the moment)

Right click on the folder that has your access database and choose "Properties".

Click on the sharing tab.
Click on Permissions.
Click on Add and choose your ASPNET/USER( something like that ) then give them full rights for testing.

Hope this helps.

Thank You Thank You Thank You.

That did it. Who would have thought that a normal fileshare did it?
Well, maybe everybody else but me.

But anyway, it works now.

Glad I could help.
Everyone has this problem at one time or another.
It can be a bit of a pain.
