Looping logon on web reports

[Tracey]

I have been trying to solve my looping logon problem for two weeks now, and none of seagate's or any other forums suggestions have helped. From varifying databases to tweaking registry settings, i seem to have tried them all.

Does anyone have any fresh suggestions? Im ready to try anything at this stage.....

Win2000 professional, Apache and Interbase 6.

Yes, im using a system odbc dsn, on a FAT system (no ntfs rights problems), using an admistrative account, have wcscgi.exe in dir, etc etc etc

someone please help me

I see this all the time...

Are you using WCS or ASP to surve up the page?

In ether case "your web process" is not passing off the correct login information via CR to the DB.

If you show my the code, I can fix. Steven Fowler, Principal

Go to Seagate KB at

http://support.seagatesoftware.com/library/kbase.asp

and type in "Looping Logon".
There are several articles regarding this issue.

Hi Steven,

Am in a similar boat to Tracey, except I am trying to access a MS Access 97 database residing on separate machine. I can run the report locally on the web server machine (Windows NT - NTFS), but keep getting looping logon when trying to call it over the web. I can sucdessfully call other reports that access a sybase database on a different server.

Have gone through all of seagates knowledgebase articles and done all the tweaking. Am using system dsn. Haven't heard about the wcscgi.exe file?

Any hints would be very much appreciated.

Thanks
Brenda

I'm getting a loopin login attempting to access a MSSQL DATABASE ON A DIFFERENT SERVER. I'm running IIS 5.0 along w/ Cold Fusion. I also notice that the name of the server is not correct on the login screen. Does anyone have any suggestions?
