I put the Folder "wexserver" in the root directory under our website and talked to the server adminstrator to change the folder permissons as described in the "readme.txt" file. Then I tested, it did not work. The register window comes up and I put username (admin) and password (tester) in there, it give me a message the page can not be displayed. I create a test.asp page :
<%
on error resume next
pathDb = "./db/wexserver.mdb"
strConn = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & server.MapPath(pathDb)
set conn=server.CreateObject("adodb.connection")
conn.ConnectionString =strConn
conn.Open
if err.number<>0 then
response.write err.Number &"
"
response.write err.Description &"
"
response.write conn.Errors(0).Description &"
"
response.write conn.Errors(0).NativeError &"
"
response.write conn.Errors(0).Number &"
"
response.write conn.Errors(0).Source &"
"
response.write conn.Errors(0).SQLState &"
"
end if
%>
The page display:
--------------------------------
-2147467259
Unspecified error
Unspecified error
0
-2147467259
Microsoft JET Database Engine

I want know what I did wrong.

Hi Moris,
Firstly thanks for your purchase.
I think this is probably a permission problem. It seems that "db" folder doesn't have write permission. Make sure that the below instruction is applied and the "db" folder inherits the permission of the parent folder "wexserver":
-Add a NTFS permission entry for Internet Guest Account "IUSR_MACHINENAME" to "wexserver" folder and allow "Modify" permission for this user.
This will enable WebExplorer Server to write configuration files within this folder.

I change the folder permissons as described in your reply
but the error is the same!
Server is Windows 2000 Advanced server SP2 with Ado 2.7.
Thanks
