1. Is it possible to install CDONTS mail component on an IIS server? It's my prefered email component.

   We have both CDONTS and ASPmail installed. We will install free component for free and custom component for $10 one time installation fee.
 

 


2. Do you provide an ability to password-protect websites and/or allow for custom error pages?

   Yes, we provide password-protected directory and custom error pages.
 

 


3. Do your servers support asp.net , *.aspx scripts?

   Yes, we do support ASP.NET
 

 


4. How to disable ASP.Net custom error?

  
   
       
   

This tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to "Off".
 

 


5. How do I create custom 404 page?

   Create 404.asp inside your wwwroot.
 

 


6. Why after I installed FrontPage extensions, it still does not work? It says the extenstions are not installed?

   Make sure that there's no FrontPage Web installed. If you are uncertain, you should delete the file \_vti_pvt\services.cnf or rename it to "services.org", and try to uninstall and reinstall FrontPage from control panel
 

 


7. Why it always shows "Coming Soon..." even I have already uploaded my home page?

   Delete default.html if you use other default page.
 

 


8. How do I create a DSN-less connect to my Access database?

   - Upload your .mdb file to the Data folder parallel to the wwwroot folder.

- Create the server connection object:
   Set adoCon = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")

- Define the path:
   strDbPath = "d:\websites\yourdomain.com\data\yourdatabase.mdb"

- Define the driver and connection:
   strCon = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Data Source=" & strDbPath

Note: Your database can reside anywhere inside your domain; placing it in the Data folder outside of the wwwroot folder is more secure. If your database resides in different folder under your wwwroot, adjust the path to: strDbPath = "d:\websites\yourdomain.com\wwwroot\datafolderpath\yourdatabase.mdb"
 

 


9. Do you have a sample SQL database connection string?

   db_server = ","
db_user = "username"
db_pass = "password"
db_name = "database name"
conn_str = "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=" & db_server & ";User ID=" & db_user & ";Password=" & db_pass & ";Initial Catalog=" & db_name
 


10. Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005' [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Operation must use an updateable query.
