Dreamweaver asp Database Connections

Am using Dreamweaver 8 (and the Missing Manual book) to set up dynamic webpages using asp and a database.
Have used IIS to get my server set up at localhost and have downloaded files including mdb from site associated with Missing Manual book. Am on pages 700-701 of book.
Have selected Custom Connection String using the connection name connNationalEx. Then connection string:
"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:\DWDynamic\nationalEx.mdb"
Have selected "Using driver on this machine"
Response to "Test" is "Connection successfully made" which is great!
After OK I get the following message:
"C:\inetpub\wwwroot\nationalex_root\Connections\connNationalEx.asp contains an invalid path" which is not so great!
Have tried changing and matching capitals and/or no capitals. Prob something simple but I can't see it.
Am doing a website for local Scouts on a voluntary basis and due to child protection laws they have asked for a log in system. Am happy with Dreamweaver and CSS but I may have bitten off more than I can chew here with log-ins! Any help appreciated with above.

Perhaps there's a remnant of an open database? When I used
Access
Database, it would create an LDI or some thing similar when
it opens an
mdb that could, on occasion, remain open even after being
close?
This probably isn't the case but perhaps it can give you a
clue.
You may also want to try moving it so that it's not where it
was and
then connect to it in it's new location.

  • Dreamweaver MySQL recordset connection problem

    Hi,
    I'm trying to create a recordset for the first time in
    Dreamweaver MX but am having problems getting the connection with
    the database to work.
    I have set up a MySQL database on my server (which I have
    checked and is OK), checked that PHP is running and have connected
    Dreamweaver to the server successfully ( in "Edit Sites" the
    "remote info" & "testing server" tests show a successful
    connection).
    When I try to connect to the database I get this sequence of
    events:
    1. Dialigue box: "Retrieving information from public_html"
    2. Dialigue box: "Waiting for server" (with progress bar)
    3. Dialigue box: "Dreamweaver cannot determine the remote
    server time. The Select Newer and Synchronise commands will not be
    available."
    4. Spinning ball for a few minutes (I'm using Mac OSX)
    5. back to "Waiting for server" dialogue box which remains
    for ages, eventually I click "cancel"
    6. "An unexpected error occurred"
    If anyone can shed any light on what I might be missing I
    would appreciate it greatly.
    Thanks - Zaphodz

    I am a newby to databases and am having a similar problem
    with asp and my remote sql database. My hosting provider told me to
    use this script:
    <%
    Dim DBName,DBUser,DBPass,objRS,objConn
    DBName="cham_members"
    DBUser="cham_member"
    DBPass="mypassword"
    Set objConn=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
    objConn.ConnectionString="DRIVER={MySQL ODBC 3.51
    Driver};Server=localhost;Database="&DBName&";UID="&DBUser&";pwd="&DBPass&";"
    objConn.Open
    Set objRS=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
    %>
    Since that code doesn't work with DreamWeaver's Databases
    panel Custom Connection String dialogue box I came up with this
    one:
    DRIVER={MySQL ODBC 3.51
    Driver};Server=localhost;Database=cham_members;UID=cham_member;PWD=mypassword;objConn.Ope n
    Set objRS=Server.CreateObject(ADODB.Recordset)
    It connected but doesn't show my tables. I followed all the
    advice I found here;
    1. Connect using the "Use passive FTP"
    2. Corrected a few illegal hyphens in my database.
    3. Tried MySQL 127.0.0.1:3306 which would not connect at all
    4. Remove Connection Scripts. No change.
    5. I have been running DreamWeaver 7.01 update.
    I noticed the database connection names come up in the
    "Connections" folder so I opened the file it had just created and
    pasted in the script my hosting company gave me. Still no luck. I
    am determined to learn to create dynamic websites so I really
    appreciate your help.
    Thanks, Ann Y.

  • Database connection and recordsets

    I have set up a database connection (to an Access database)
    and set up .asp pages to display various results. This works OK in
    the testing server apart from web links. How do I make those
    database fields which contain web addresses function as links? Is
    it to do with bindings? As you can probably tell, I'm quite new to
    Dreamweaver.
    Thanks

    Use the link fields and on the dialogue box that opens,
    choose the radio
    button that says "From Data Sources" instead of "File
    System". That will
    open up the access to the database fields and you can choose
    them.
    The link that results looks like this format:
    page2.asp?MyID=<%=myid %>

  • I can't get a database connection.

    Background: I've already built two sites with databases using DW CS6, PHPMySQL, and the same hosting company, so I know they allow remote connections. (I'm developing using the remote host because I've never found a tutorial for how to move it all from local XAMPP to my host - but hey, it's been working fine so far.)
    I set up the database using CPanel Databases, added the user and password, no problem. Went into PHP MySQL and added a table, logged out and back in, the table is there as defined.
    In DW, I double-checked the testing server, tested the connection, and it connected successfully.
    Then I opened a page for editing and added a database connection (all as I had done on the previous two sites that work fine). I named the connection, entered the user, the password and tried to SELECT a database. No luck. HTTP Error 404. I manually added the database (the only one) and clicked test. Again no luck. HPPT Error 404.
    I double checked the testing server, double checked the DB information, and nothing seems to work.
    Any clue what I'm doing wrong? Thanks so much if you can help.

    UPDATE:
    Okay, this is really getting weird. As a typcial computer nerd, I know there are many roads to success, so if one doesn't work, try another.
    Trying a different solution, I opened a test.php page and wrote the following code:
    <?php
    echo "<p>Now testing database connection.</p>\n";
    $db_server = "localhost";
    $db_username = "mcsb831_mbradmin";
    $db_password = "***(redacted)***";
    $link = mysql_connect($db_server, $db_username, $db_password);
    if (!$link) {
        echo "Could NOT connect.<br />\n";
    }else{
        echo "Connected Successfully.<br />\n";
        mysql_close($link);
    I loaded the page to the server and guess what? I got the message "Connected Successfully."
    Hooray! Now I know the database server is running, and the database and user name and password are valid.
    I went to the DW MbrConnect01.php file (the name of the CONNECTION file that Dreamweaver creates when I tried to make the connection through DW), and verified the database name, user name, and password were correct -- I copied and pasted them from the code above to make absolutely certain there were no transcription errors. Here's that file:
    <?php
    # FileName="Connection_php_mysql.htm"
    # Type="MYSQL"
    # HTTP="true"
    $hostname_MbrConnec01 = "localhost";
    $database_MbrConnec01 = "mcsb831_members";
    $username_MbrConnec01 = "mcsb831_mbradmin";
    $password_MbrConnec01 = "***(redacted)***";
    $MbrConnec01 = mysql_pconnect($hostname_MbrConnec01, $username_MbrConnec01, $password_MbrConnec01) or trigger_error(mysql_error(),E_USER_ERROR);
    ?>
    And guess what?
    I GOT THE STINKING ERROR MESSAGE AGAIN!!
    (See previous post for the full text of the message.
    Yes, I checked the server using an FTP browser for the presence of the required files, and they are there.
    Does anyone have a clue what's going on here? I would absolutely love to use DW's DB automation tools, but none of them will work if I can't get a DW connection to work.
    I notice that my code uses mysql_connect while the DW-generated code uses mysql_pconnect (which is deprecated), could that be the culprit? How do I fix it if so?
    PLEASE, can someone help?

    ok I am trying to use dreamweaver's database function to

    I know all the info i am putting in is correct as I am copy

    thx for any help
    -Ryan

    Have you gone under the Application folder and clicked on the
    plus (+) sign and created the connection to the database.
    Also, do you have username and password on the database? If
    so, you'll have to provide this information
    I don't use MAC or PHP a great deal. So my help can be rather
    limited. I'm just thinking about connection strings
    What web server are you using? MAke sure it's running and set
    up correctly. Test the server first and see if it's working. If so
    see what connections string Dreamweaver is providing. I know Apache
    had a few bugs with various version just Windows has had in the
    past, not sure how these work with OSX

    How have you set up your Testing Server in the site

    If your server root is C:\htdocs, and your site is in
    C:\htdocs\mysite,
    that's the value for "Testing server folder". The URL prefix
    should be
    http://localhost/mysite/.

  • Problem With Midlet Database Connectivity

    Hi, I am into an application which reures database connectivity.I want to connect to Ms Access as backend with JDBC support.Ive searched a lot but found RMS as the only answer.I will be very thankful if some one can send me a code snippet or some link to an article which shows the trail to my problem.

    You can't have an MS Access database on the phone itself. And even if you can (on an MS SmartPhone maybe?), MIDP has no way to connect to it.
    But if you need to connect to a database that's hosted on a server, then what you have to do is set up a regular web server (using ASP, Servlets, PHP, whatever you fancy), and communicate with this server using the General Connection Framework (that's the javax.microedition.io.* classes). The web server, instead of outputting data in HTML format, can output the data in a format you design and know how to read and parse on your MIDlet (for example, for a simple application a comma separated string will do, for something more complicated maybe you want to use XML, or even develop your own binary format).
    If you want the data to be stored on the client then I'm afraid you're stuck with the RMS.

  • Database Connection - Wamp Server

    Hi - just wondered if anyone can help.
    I have Dreamweaver MX (6.1) and Wamp Server (V2) installed on
    my PC ( Apache 2.2.6, PHP 5.2.5, mySQL 5.0.45).
    For some reason I can't get a database connection to work
    between Dreamweaver and the database I have created on the local
    server. The server works fine with apps outside of dreamweaver so
    I'm pretty confident about the server setup. I thinks the problem
    lies with DW!
    Has anyone managed to get this working? If so, what the hell
    am I doing wrong?
    thanks
    YY

    What do you see when you browse to
    http://localhost?
    How are you interacting with the local database? Are you
    using the MySQL
    client?

  • Database connects but no tables are shown

    Hello
    I have connected to the database on my remote server in dreamweaver 8 and it says its connected successfully, but when I open the tree or try to make a recordset no tables are show and when I try it in advanced this error appears:
    "Error calling GetTables:
    MySQL Error#: 1064
    You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that
    correponds to you MySQL server version for the right syntax to use
    near '-maillist' at line1"
    maillist being my database name
    I'm not very good at dynamics yet so don't really understand the SQL syntax
    This is what dreamweaver connection made me:
    <?php
    # FileName="Connection_php_mysql.htm"
    # Type="MYSQL"
    # HTTP="true"
    $hostname_blog = "localhost";
    $database_blog = "servername"
    $username_blog ="servername"
    $password_blog ="password"
    $blog = mysql_pconnect ($hostname_blog, $username_blog, $password_blog or trigger_error (mysql_error (), E_USER_ERROR);
    ?>
    Don't know if any of this makes sence to you.
    Please Help!

    Is there any way you can check it on another computer using a different version or installation of Dreamweaver?
    But, from your response, it doesn't sound like you've actually deleted the connection scripts - it's a specific command in DW. You've installed the patch so that's good, you can verify the installation under the About menu and look for the version number. Bit then here's exactly what you need to do just to cover all bases
    1.  First delete the database connection from the Databases tab which is alongside the Bindings tab and the Server Behaviors tab. You'll highlight the connection, click the minus sign, and confirm. This will delete the connections folder and then file within.
    2.  From the Commands menu, find Connection Scripts > Delete Connection Scripts.(I'm guessing from memory, if it isn't the Commands menu, try the Site menu) 3.  Exit and restart DW 4.  Define the database connection again, use the same info as before, server, DB name, etc. Make sure you name the connection name as before as any files you have that use the connection will be looking for it under that name. Test the connection to make sure it can once again establish the connection.
    That should work. I've had to do this several times before and not just in DW 8. Sometimes you don't have to go through all the steps exactly, but then again sometimes you have to repeat them once or twice. 

  • Report in production prompts for database connection info

    Hi,
    I'm using SAP Crystal Reports version for VS 2010 SP1. I'm trying to implement the most basic need--to create reports in a development environment and move them to production by just copying the .rpt files. I want to rely on the database connection string from web.config, but don't see how that is done. I've tried using ADO.NET DataSets from Project Data and can get the report to run while developing, but when I move to another server I'm always prompted with the "The report you requested requires further information" dialog.
    I tried this solution, which keeps the db server name in a web.config variable:
               ReportDocument boReportDocument = new ReportDocument();
                boReportDocument.Load(Server.MapPath(rmCR.SelectedItem.Value.ToString()));
                ConnectionInfo boConnectionInfo = new ConnectionInfo();
                boConnectionInfo.ServerName = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["dbServerName"];
                boConnectionInfo.DatabaseName = "dbCMRP_Employees";
                boConnectionInfo.IntegratedSecurity = true;
                ModifyConnectionInfo(boReportDocument.Database, boConnectionInfo);
                // Modify the ConnectionInfo for all tables in all subreports
                foreach (ReportDocument boSubreport in boReportDocument.Subreports)
                    ModifyConnectionInfo(boSubreport.Database, boConnectionInfo);
                Session.Add("Report", boReportDocument);
                Response.Redirect("CrystalReportsViewer.aspx");
    and this works fine in development, but when moved to a different server I get the "The report you requested requires further information" dialog. I've made sure that the db has the correct security settings, but can't find anything missing.
    I'm sure I'm missing something basic, but can't seem to find any solution after searching for days. Any solution that allows me to create the report in VS 2010 and copy to a production server will be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Dan

  • What can I actually to with database connections?

    This may sound like an odd question, but once I define a MySQL connection in Dreamweaver, what can I actually do with it? Let me clarify what I'm doing:
    I've only just found out that we can define MySQL connections when a PHP/MySQL site is defined. I'm used to administering my databases via MySequel or phpMyAdmin. Accessing databases in Dreamweaver would rock!
    So now I've got a connection, I can read all my tables... but I can't seem to do anything with them. I can't add data, I can't modify data - all I can do is look at what's already there. I can click the "insert code" or the "view data" option, but they don't seem to do anything useful: The first option only pastes whatever is highlighted in my code, and the second brings up a window displaying the data.
    What am I missing? Can I change the data somehow and just haven't found the option yet? Or what else can I use my database for?
    For example, exporting or importing data, synchronising with another database/database host, etc?

    Database connections are used to develop data driven web sites. So if you are familiar with server side scripting you can write code to make your site dynamic. In the past, DW had server behaviors that streamlined the process of creating web forms and display areas to insert, update and select from database tables, but these have been removed as the code was never quite up to current standards.

  • OK now that there is no option to reveal "database" panel in DW CC, how do I create a database connection and build my phpmysql pages?

    Is there an alternative way other than manually entering PHP code?

    Thanks, It works. Author of the article politely says what many of us have to say to Adobe when they make "improvements" - WTF, Adobe???

  • DW8 - My Site Database Connections are Missing

    Has anyone experienced their site database connections being
    lost in Dreamweaver 8? This is not isolated to one site definition,
    but on all of my sites.
    I cannot add a new database connection, and I cannot access
    existing database connections while trying to create new
    recordsets. All my existing recordsets and bindings appear in the
    Application panel. When I click the + button to create a new
    connection in the Databases tab, nothing happens. My sites are
    fully defined with document types and testing servers defined.
    Has anyone experienced this or know how to fix it? I've
    searched and searched and cannot find anything about this anywhere.
    Thanks in advance.
    hg

    Hi!
    You could try this It worked for me on all my connections.
    I found a extension called SP2DBFix1.0.2.mxp
    Down load here,
    http://download.macromedia.com/pub/dreamweaver/extensions/SP2DBFix1.0.2.mxp
    to fix a XP pro service pack2 connections.
    To fix: I went to Sites/Advanced/Remove connection Scripts,
    ran that removed
    my connection scripts. I deleted all my connections in the
    connections
    folder, so make sure you copy the connection info so you can
    re make them. I
    then shut down Dreamweaver 8 installed the extension then
    opened dreamweaver
    8 made a new connection and it works.You have to run this
    same routine on
    every site you have setup with connection scripts sorry, but
    its a bug of
    some kind.
    Good Luck.
