I'm having a terrible time being able to connect my access database to my website. I'm using 1and1.com as my host. The database resides in my App_Data folder. I checked everything I could think of on the host side. I cannot query from the database through VWD Express nor create a typed dataset .xsd that will allow quering the database.p.s. - I don't need any sophisticated security on the database, just a homegrown sign in I put together that works fine for my site which is mostly xml file data.
just for my testing purpose i know i can define both the connection's outside in a single web config file by different name's and access them in my front end according to it but what if i want to have seprate for both connection's web.config situation is like this see image so i want to access my connections from second web config file how i can do that.
Is there anything missing in IIS 6.0 that prevents me from (Insert into table) using MS-Access?
Explain: The application works fine under Visual Studio 2008 IDE the insert into table works fine with no error, Also I tested with hosting provider and works fine with no problem. but now I have published the same exact app in a dedicated server windows 2003 with IIS 6.0 .NET framework 2.0 with latest service pack I gave IIS_WPG write/modify access to the folder where MS-Access database is located and database but at the time of insert an error pop-up. I need to install in the Server or settings in the IIS to recognize my MS-Access db is it some office runtime that I am missing. (BTW I am using OLEDB connection string in my C# )
Using System.Data.OleDb;
I can retrieve data off of it with no problem but when I try to insert is when it fails I thought the problem was Access Rights but I do not think is the case.
How can i get ConnectionString In web.Config when you are in DAL(data access layer)Some said it should me in <appSetting> but i think this is not appropriate to do because web.config have dedicate tag for connection strings.i am creating a 3 tier each layers is a project in 1 solution
Project ://solution
|_View :WebApp // Dependence (BLL,ENTITY ) |_BLL : ClassLib // Dependence (DAL,ENTITY ) |_DAL : ClassLib // Dependence (ENTITY ) |_ENTITY : ClassLib //note this is not a layes just a central data object reference
I have created a website (VB) on my local host. A couple of pages on this website use gridviews or detailsviews with an AccessDataSource connection to a MS Access database. This works perfectly. But now I want to move this website to a hosting provider. And on this hosting provider my website works well but not the pages with a connection to the Access database. I searched the whole internet for a solution but I didn't found it.
Folder structure on the host:
- db > Access databases (name: testdemo.mdb) - logs -wwwroot > website (for example, the gridview is placed on index.aspx).
I think AccessDataSource didn't work, but what kind of code may I use in the index.aspx and web.config? My hosting provider said only, use a direct link to the database and not a relative, for example: E:xxx.comdb estdemo.mdb
I need help with changing this DSN to a DSN less var connection .whenever i use the dsnless connection i get an error since the String connTaftPrjPic is reused in the code.The Objective is to change to a DSN Less connection without affecting the connTaftPrjPic.
I am using a AccessDatasource for getting values from a accessdatabase for a Dropdown list. After i load the page and close it, a .ldb file is created. After wards i am not able to open the database manually. How to close the connection. I have given Network service Modify access [URL] to share permission, still no go.
In IIS 7 you can create database connection strings. I suppose this must be encrypted and best protected by IIS. This is nice, but how do I access it programmatically?
Somehow I deleted my App_Data folder and had to recreate it... it only had one database in it ... an Access Database. My .aspx pages that use the DB are giving permission errors when they load... I can't find anyplace in my DB or on my VWD Express where I can set the permissions (nor on my hosting service).
I've got an ASP.NET web project which connect to an SQL Server 2005 DataBase.I think that I'm doing the part of the database connection awfull because everytime I need to do a query (select for example) I'm creating a new connection, opening the connection, creating the command, executing the query, using the results and closing the connection.
Is the rigth way to open a connection in the start of the application and closing at the end?? How can I do that?? I'm retrieving data but what will happen to database server when the application will be used by many people?
i have made a project that has an access database.
i have manage to connect and retrive data from the database at aspx and at code behind.
the problem is that i do not want to write the connection string at code behind again and again but to get it from the web.config as i am doing to the aspx pages.

I need a connection string to connect the microsoft 2003 database with my ASP.NET webserviceWhen just making a website I used to use the following connection statement
OleDbConnection dbconn = new OleDbConnection("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; data source=" + + Server.MapPath("~/db/SalesCentral.mdb"));
Now as I am using a webservice the Server.MapPath function is giving an error
I am trying to do a login page which checks username and password from access database. I think my code is almost done but i am getting some weird error which i just can't decipher where it exactly comes from, as i think i already have every return value it needs. Can anyone check this function and tell me if there is something i am missing or doing wrong? And the error i get isDBConnection(string, string)': not all code paths return a value
We are currently migrating our test databases to a new server and I am switching one of our sites over to use them. When running the application from my development box it hits the database just fine. However when I compile and push the code out to our test server and try to use the same datbase I get the ExecuteNonQuery requires an open and available Connection. The connection's current state is closed error. I cannot seem to figure out why. Also when I point the site at our old test server it works just fine.
I'm building a Data Access Layer for my asp.net application. I would like to be able to share connection between different classes in order to manage transaction, but I don't know how to do that.
Example:
I have 2 classes, Order and OrderDetail.
I will call my DAL Order class for a SQL insert of a new order.
Inside the Insert method, I want to call my OrderDetail class to insert my order's details, and I would do that with same connection and transaction.
1) the default page loads, it will read the Windows Login of the user opening the page. 2) I'll check if this login exists in a table stored on the webserver.
In this Access Database, there's a 2nd linked table, pointing to another access table on a network location. Now, I want to read data from this linked table. However, at this moment I receive an error:
"The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the file '\<ip><shared-folder>statistics.mdb'. It is already opened exclusively by another user, or you need permission to view its data".
Some extra info:
- The network folder has read and write permissions for everyone
- the user and group permissions on both access files are set to read/modify/administer for the Admin user (on the tables I want to read from)
- IIS authentication on the server is set to "Windows Authentication" (this is needed so I can read the Windows Login from the user). All other authentication modes are disables (like anonymous, ...)
- When the error occurs, no other program or process has access to the statistics.mdb (so, it can't be locked by someone else)
Like I said before, in this statistics.mdb file, there are 2 tables. One normal table, and another linked table (pointing to a network location)
Searching for solutions, I discovered the following:
- if I don't use linked tables, everything works fine (however, I have to use this linked table)
- even if I connect directly to the table in the network I receive the error. So, I'm pretty sure I don't have sufficient rights to read from this table.
I read that not the Admin user is opening the file, but actually a user called ASP.NET. This user doesn't have the correct rights to do this. However, I'm not sure if this is true.
I have a Windows Service I have developed in Visual Studio 2005 (C#).
It accesses a database using a connection string in machine.config.
On my Windows XP Pro 32bit (SP3) machine, it works correctly.
On my new Windows 7 Pro 64bit machine, it throws "object not set to an instance of an object" when it gets to the line where it's trying use the connection string.
This is the 'object' which is not set in Windows 7:
The machine.config has the same connection string set up on both machines.
A .Net 2 website transferred to the Windows 7 machine has no problem accessing the same connection string.
I have tried a bunch of different permissions on the machine.config and its containing folders, and setting the service to log in as Admin, but I don't know exactly what permissions are required.
I am making use of 3-Tier architecture while making my project. And in Data Access Layer I am making use of application block, but application gets a connection string from web.config; but ClassLibrary of Data Access Layer doesn't contain web config file. How can I access connection string from Data Access layer?
