Hi,
I am having problems connecting to a FoxPro database sitting on a shared
folder on a network from within my .NET application. I am using a the
following connection string to connect to the database:
'provider=VFPOLEDB.1;data
source='\\myServer\DataDirectory\FoxProDatabase.dbc'
When I try to connect to the database, I get an error thrown up by the
oledbprovider:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Visual FoxPro error '80040e21'
Invalid path or file name.
I have tried to resolve this by giving the IUSR account full admin rights
within IIS, but to no avail. The obvious task of checking the path location
to make sure it is correct has also been carried out. The server on which I
am running IIS can see the server on which the database is stored. I am
beginning to wonder whether I need to configure my .NET application in some
way.
I am using .NET Framework 1.1 on Windows 2000 Pro (and Server).
TIA
Glenn
