Re: [PHP-DB] Connecting to MS Access Database using PHP via ODBC.

Sounds like a permission problem. Make sure the IIS user (IUSR_) has access to the share.

[PHP-DB] Connecting to MS Access Database using PHP via ODBC.

[ABCOM Support]

Hello,

Im using PHP to connect to a Microsoft Access database which is not stored 
on the machine where IIS is installed. It's located on a different file 
server on the network.

I have mapped a network drive to where the database is stored and have used 
it when creating the System DSN.

The problem is the the php script cannot connect. If I move a copy of the 
database over to the server where IIS is installed and update the System DSN 
to point to that it all works fine.

I was made aware that you could have the database on a different machine and 
it would work, but this doesnt seem to be the case.

Can anyone shed some light on this?

Many thanks.
