Hi Jean
Think you are doing something wrong, like Ian said the error messages you
are getting are ftp errors.
Any problem like this is best broken up into smaller pieces.
- Can you ftp the .asp pages to the remote server
- If yes, can you request these pages in a browser
- re the DSN. You have setup a mysql odbc driver on a local PC, you are
using this to connect to a mysql database on your raq and that is ok.
The Data Source Name is local to your pc, the Data Source is on the Raq?
The .asp scripts you are trying to run are on the raq?
I am no expert on chillisoft ASP or MS-ASP but i think that chillisoft ASP
runs on linux boxes, MySQL runs on linux boxes, DSN's run on windows boxes.
I have found some code that will allow you to connect chillisoft asp to your
mysql database in DSN less style. (this code assumes the asp scripts and the
database are on the same machine)
<?
'*** create the connection string
strConn = "DRIVER={MySQL};SERVER=localhost;DATABASE=myDatabaseName;"
' *** create variables for login details
strUser = "myUserID"
strPassword = "myPassword"
'*** create the connection object then open it passing your login details.
Set conn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
conn.Open strConn, strUser, strPassword
stResult = "<p> Hi, ASP tells me your connection was a success!</p>"
set mRS = nothing
set conn = nothing
?>
I hope this helps!
I think the majority of this list does not use chillisoft therefore
slim set of replies.
Kind regards
Marcus

Dear Ian,
Thanks for responding anyway. I am sure it is something stupid I am doing
as I am new to this. I just need to figure out what.

Hi Jean,
I do not use Dreamweaver for asp sites ( I could never get it to work
), so can't help you there.
But, the error message you reported are FTP errors. Basically the
FTP part of Dreamweaver is complaing because it cannot PUT (or write
) a file to the website.
Make sure you have the right FTP settings in Dreamweaver.
On another note, we have had lots of users complaining that they have
trouble FTP'ing from Dreamweaver ( and claiming its our fault ). It
turns out that Dreamweaver is slower than most real FTP clients and
needs a larger 'timeout' value. We usually recommend increasing it
to 60 seconds.
You could also try http://www.macromedia.com for ideas.
Regards
Ian
