pt_load.asp error message during initial setup

Post by Guest »

After filling in the initial setup form (pt_load.asp) and clicking the Submit button, I get the following error message:

Data accepted....
ADODB.Recordset error '800a0cb3'

Current Recordset does not support updating. This may be a limitation of the provider, or of the selected locktype.

/pentacle/pt_load.asp, line 193



What is wrong?

Thanks.

If you have not altered your file, my best guess would be that you do not have the correct permissions setup for the database file (located in the /dbs folder)

Check out the user guide for more specifics:

Though I am not for sure. Maybe David will have more input.

I think the write permission is not given to the database file.

We are running IIS 6. And really didn't have any issues with the install (old or new release - I just tested the new release).

Be sure that you have the write permission set in IIS. I am not very experienced with this stuff so I take no liability for my next comments if something happens.

Check the security of the folder that the database is in and the database file. See what kind of permissions the SYSTEM has on the file. Ours is set up to full control. Our setup is in an intranet so we don't have to work about hackers, I don't know what granting full access will do if you do not have it setup.

Just a few ideas. If it doesn't work, browse a few networking and IIS forums those guys should be able to help you. The error is not specific to the Pentacle board, it is more IIS / Windows based.

Good deal! Since it couldn't be updated it sounded like it couldn't be written to. Those permissions will always get you :evil:

Yes, in the end all I had to do was add write permission to the pentacle.mdb file in \pentacle\dbs folder. So simple... Thanks.
