PRB: Creating Application with PWS 4.0, Windows 95 and VID (184572)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Visual InterDev 1.0
- Microsoft Visual InterDev 6.0
- Microsoft Personal Web Server 4.0 for Windows 95
This article was previously published under Q184572 SYMPTOMS When creating data connections with Visual InterDev 1.0 or
6.0 and Personal Web Server (PWS) 4.0 on Windows 95, the following errors may
occur: Error: 80004005 [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager]
Data source name not found and no default driver specified. Error: 80040e14 [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft
Access 97 Driver]The Microsoft Jet Database engine cannot find the table or
query 'tablename'. Make sure it exists and that its name is spelled correctly.
CAUSE The Web project folder (for example, \test) has not been
created as an "Application" or the "Application" has not been restarted since
modifying the Global.asa file. RESOLUTION Most often this is caused by not having "Execute"
permissions selected on the Web project in the Personal Web Manager. "Execute"
permissions is required to make a Web Project an "Application."
NOTE: If you are using an existing Web project in Visual InterDev created by
FrontPage Publisher, then the execute permissions are not set (Web project is
not an application). Use the following steps to determine if your
Web project is an "Application":
- Start Personal Web Manager (double-click on the PWS icon in
the taskbar).
- Click Advanced.
- Select the Web project folder (for example, \test).
- Click the Edit Properties button.
- In the directory path, the folder name is missing. Append
the folder name of the Web project to this directory path.
- In the Access pane, make sure every check box is selected
(Read, Execute, and Scripts). You'll need 'Execute' to make it an application.
- Click OK, and close the Personal Web Manager.
If you forget to add your folder name of your Web project to
the directory path, you'll receive the following error when accessing any page
within that Web project: HTTP Error 404 404 Not
Found The Web server cannot find the file or script you asked for. Please
check the URL to ensure that the path is correct. Please contact the
server's administrator if this problem persists. NOTE: By default
the Personal Web Manager will not add these subfolders to the directory path of
your Web site, but your Web site will be accessible. Another
application could exist in a higher level directory, root for example, if no
execute permissions are set in the subfolder, this high level Global.asa will
fire instead. Restarting the Application Restarting the Personal Web server using the Personal Web Manager
will not restart your application to refresh Global.asa. To do so you'll have
to open an MS-DOS prompt from the Start button. Clicking Run and type the
command. To stop the Personal Web Server go to its subfolder, for example,
c:\win95\system\inetsrv and type the following command:
pws /stop
To start type it, type the following command:
pws /start
