I placed my site folder "finesse", under inetpub\wwwroot folder.
The problem i'm facing is :

When i'm trying to update a record in my Ms Access database i'm getting the following error message

"Error Type:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (0x80004005)
[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Cannot update. Database or object is read-only.
/Finesse/UpdateProduct.asp, line 301"

I have to inform you that the .mdb file is not read-only, the same problem occurs in every database i'm using under the wwwroot folder and in my previous Ms Windows istallation the website was working perfect in MyWebs Folder under MyDocuments, witch now has disappeard.

The system i' working uses Windows XP Pro and IIS 5.1

Thanks in advance!!

This error usually happens when you try to insert data into or update data in an Access database. It means that you don't have sufficient permissions to write to the database.

To fix it, make sure that the account IIS runs under (usually IUSR_MachineName) has sufficient permissions to write to the database and the folder it resides in.


If you are not running the server yourself you will need to contact your web hosting company and ask them how to sort the problem out. You may need to use a special folder to upload your access database.

No luck.

In addition, i'd like to inform you that the server runs in my computer, i connect as Administrator with full control and the same problem occurs with all the files running under wwwroot folder, for example mysql and php files.

In my previous installation, because of the problem i had my websites moved to folder MyWebs under MyDocuments folder and everything was o.k.

There is no such a folder in my current installation.
Have you got any idea how can i re-install this folder?

Hello,

The administrator account will only work if you don't have Anonymous Access turned on. Otherwise, it uses the IUSR account as stated above.

Did you set up any Access-specific settings, or any custom settings in IIS? What you may have done may help.
