HELP!!!!!!!
I've been fussing with this for hours, researching on literally hundreds of different web pages, testing things out, etc. and I'm getting nowhere fast.
I basically want to develop the proper set-up so that I can connect from an ASP on a web server to a GoldMine database hosted on another network server. The biggest problem seems to be the fact that the GoldMine database is not stored on the same computer as the ASP IIS server and web pages. I've tried UDC, I've tried fileDSN's, systemDSN's, and I'm stuck on the following error:
[Microsoft][ODBC dBase Driver]General error Unable to open registry key 'Temporary (volatile) Jet DSN for process 0x1ba0 Thread 0x1ff8 DBC 0x15fc024 Xbase'.
Microsoft's knowledge base tells me I need to set valid permissions for the web user. I did that. I've tried adding the same user (IUSR_<machine_name>) to the other server computer. I've changed permissions on this computer and that computer, added new users with the same name, gave the GoldMine folder permissions for the user with the same name (IUSR_<machine_name>). I've tried network locations (G:\) and UNC (\\server_name\folder). I've edited the registry permissions for ODBC. I feel like I've tried about EVERYTHING.
I'm willing to use ODBC or Jet.OLEDB, or anything else. I can't believe I spent so many hours on only one thing: writing a connection string to connect an ASP page to GoldMine. Why is it so difficult? What do I REALLY need to do? What will get me there FAST, not just a bunch of jumping around and testing things out just to see that I found something else that didn't work?
I'm willing to use third-party software, integration software, ANYTHING I'm just so frustrated with what seems like such a simple problem.
THANK YOU so much in advance for your wonderful time and feedback you may provide to this inquiry.
Sincerely
