ASPRunnerPro General questions
G gilbert_hastert author Hello Sergey: I am testing ASPRunnerPro and I am quite impressed with its performance. I have a question similar to Wallacer Posted: May 14 2004, 05:43 PM. [how do I get the information back to my local machine?] My test DB (derived from your examples.mdb) is called cars.mdb and 'seems to be' located on C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\db\cars.mdb. However when I open it after having made (and saved) changes through the webbrowser, the cars.mdb only contains the original data that was used when the database was created. Where can I find the database that contains the changed records, so that I can make a back up? Thank you gilbert

	This ominous and omnipresent Error Number: -2147467259 'can't update this or that...' message that mostly reoccurs in this forum is due to incorrect permissions on the DB folder containing the MDB database. Once I removed the read only flag on the folder containing the MDB and giving read/write permissions I finally could access the live database, back it up and restore it (or move it to another folder within C:\Inetpub\wwwroot ) i.e. C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\test01\db C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\test02\db etc. Hope this will save other people some time and frustration.
