HI,

I'm new to ultradev and have developed an asp website. On my local computer with the application server set to local the site runs perfectly. When I uploaded it, however, none of the asp pages run. The hosting company assures me they have set up a dsn to my database which is named the same as the one that I have in my connection.

If, in 'define site', I change the application server information to ftp, the site will not run even in live view or browser view on my computer. The application server entered is as follows:

server model: Asp 2.0
scripting language: vbscript
page extension: .asp
Access: ftp
ftp host: The same as my ftp host for remote info
host directory:
login: XXX
passsword: XXX
URL Prefix: XXX

I don't know if the problem is there, with the host or with my code. My connection string is as follows:

MM_WoodmanConnection_STRING ="dsn=WoodmanDataBase;uid=;pw=;"

I have also tried it without the uid and pw information. Thanks so much for your help
 
What kind of errors do you get?

does html show & images, but nothing as far as dynamic data?
did you upload the database to the correct path your host mentioned?

To also give a more detailed error message (and therefore semi-usefull) - open Internet Explorer, tools, internet options, advanced. Locate and uncheck "Show friendly http error messages" "Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead!"
