Ok I'm pissed..I've hit a brick wall. I'm trying to test the DB connection from w/in Ultradev like this;

mySQL database on my local box.
web server and app server(ASP) on hosts box.

This is the error that I get:
icrosoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005'
[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified
/mytutorial/myTutorial/TMP4n2pdfj4r6.asp, line 102

...I know its a driver issue, but how would I specify the driver on the web server??? can anyone help??

how does your connection string look...
I think that that's where your issue lies.


----------
Is this thing on?....

Since my database is local, I'm not using a connection string, I'm using a DSN.

Stupid "80004005" ...
Very strange error that happens to me too ... once every full moon.

I still haven't found an explantion for it though. Just rebooting or defragging the machine often helps. But a few months later ... out of the blue .... 80004005

The problem remained ...

good luck !

erm, whilst looking for answers to the many problems ive encountered, i found that going to the macromedia ultradev tech support center, and simply copying and pasting the error number (this case '80004005') you get a list of ways of fixing it, or what may be causing it...

ive also run into the same problem along the way, but i found for myself without macromedia's help that it was a problem in the connection string ...

Hey thanks You just helped me with anothwer problem that I was having that search really works good.
I am usually weary of using support product support sites because it is so hard to find the needed answers (ie. Microsoft)
