The first thing you should do is to double check that the database connection string you are using has the correct path to your database. This setting is typically named gsConnect and it is typically located in a file named XXdb.asp (where XX is the prefix used in the naming convention of the application you are using).
If you are sure that your connection string is correct, this message could indicate your web server does not have the proper version of Jet installed for the database version you are attempting to use. You may need to perform one of the following steps:
| |
Install the current version of the Microsoft Data
Access Components Library (MDAC). The current version
can be downloaded from the Microsoft web site at
www.microsoft.com/data/
|
| |
|
| |
Convert your MDB file to the current version of JET
by using Microsoft Access. You can do this by
opening the MDB file in Access and follow the
prompt/directions for converting the database.

Also be sure to see FAQ article 336.
