[AccessD] Access and ASP problem

I will assume that you are using Windows XP Pro...

Give the IUSR_MACHINENAME account Full Access privileges. Read and Write
privileges are not enough. You need Read & Execute and Modify privileges as
well. Read and Write simply allows you to open the file, it doesn't allow
you to make changes or even create a file on the machine.

	In IIS on both machines, the virtual directory has Write permission
enabled. Haven't checked every setting in IIS, but the ones I've looked at
are the same on both machines.
	I gave the IUSR_MACHINENAME account write permission on the folder
in Explorer but it didn't make any difference. On the desktop though the
IUSR_MACHINENAME account is not shown in the list of users with permissions
on the folder yet the ASP file runs fine.

Hi Everyone,

	I have an Access database on my web site and IIS installed on both
my desktop and laptop for testing changes to it.
	I have an ASP file that should add a new record to one of the
tables; a snippet is shown below:

	strSQL = "SELECT TOP 1 * FROM tblAttendees"
	Set rsPlayerTourneyRS = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
	rsPlayerTourneyRS.CursorLocation = adUseServer
	rsPlayerTourneyRS.Open strSQL, dbConn, adOpenKeyset,
adLockOptimistic
	rsPlayerTourneyRS.AddNew

	On my desktop machine, and the web site, the code works, but on the
laptop the .AddNew method gives me the following error message:
	Current Recordset does not support updating. This may be a
limitation of the provider, or of the selected locktype.

	If I use rsPlayerTourneyRS.MoveLast, I get the following error
message:
	Microsoft JET Database Engine (0x80040E24)
	Rowset does not support fetching backward.

	Both machines are running Windows XP with SP2, Office 2003, IIS is
configured the same on them.

	Does anyone have any idea why it is not working on the laptop?
