I asked my hosting company to create a DSN for MS Access database.

In site definitions (Testing Server) I use ASP and FTP and when press TEST, I get the message "Macromedia Dreamweaver MX connected to your server successfully"

In Database Panel, I choose "using DSN on testing server"
When I try to connect to the DB it tells me:
"HTTP Error Code 404 File not Found. Here are some possible reasons for the problem:
1) There is no testing server running on the server machine.
2) The testing server specified for this site does not map the 65.39.254.19/_mmServerScripts?MMHTTPDB.asp URL. Verify that the URL Prefix maps to the root of the site.

I'm totally lost.
What am I doing wrong, how come I can't make a connection to the DB on that server.
(Connection on my own machine works fine)

Thank you,
Mikhail.

If you don't ask the answer is always no.

Did you try changing the testing server address to just 65.39.254.19/

In the site definition testing server, URL Prefix.
