Thanks Jeff.

I think that's where the problem is - it is a network mapped directory. Does that mean that there's no way i could use it ?

Input appreciated.

2) If you use DBI, you can get a good error message and turn


on tracing

to get better information (DBI->trace(9, "c:/trace.txt");)
3) Ensure the user running apache has permissions to the drive/directory that the dBASE Files points to.
4) Ensure the DSN is using UNC instead of drive letter, if the drive/directory is located on a separate machine.

I will create DSN w/o spaces.
The situation is that the dBase files are at d:\DBTEMP
and apache at d:\Program Files\Apache Group\apache2

With this cause a problem - by saying apache should be able to access, do you mean it has to be in apache's root directory?
Thanks for the input





No, I mean that the user account running apache must have access to the d:\dbtemp directory. I'm assuming that D is a local drive, not a mapped one. If you are using NTFS, though, check the permissions on the d:\dbtemp directory. Also -- ensure that the apache user has access to the perl directory tree too...
