Help setting up the database file path.
Reply Contact
Hello, This is my first time with with setting up, access database, and i need some help..
Im using godaddy for my hosting account. I have windows package. IIS 6.0 ( IIS7 does not support access database i guess) I enabled access database. and set up a dns.
Okay so first i left the database path as (./data/NFL.mdb) I can sign in as admin using this. but i cant make a new account.
So then i tryed (../access_db/nfl.mdb) And i moved the nfl.mdb file to the access_db folder. and this is what i get.
Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80004005'
'd:\hosting\donlally\pool\access_db\NFL.mdb' is not a valid path. Make sure that the path name is spelled correctly and that you are connected to the server on which the file resides.
/pool/includes/common.asp, line 572
So Im kind of lost here please Help!!

It's a little hard to tell from godaddy's documentation, but try each of
these as the database path:
../../access_db/nfl.mdb
../access_db/nfl.mdb
./access_db/nfl.mdb
/access_db/nfl.mdb
d:\hosting\donlally\access_db\nfl.mdb
The last 2 worked for go daddy!!

It was bound to be one of those . For anyone on godaddy, this is what you want to use in your config.asp:
'Location of the database.
const DATABASE_FILE_PATH = "/access_db/nfl.mdb"
Just be sure to upload the NFL.mdb file to your access_db folder (rather than the pool/data folder).
