Random Errors When Performing IDC or ASP Queries to an Access Database
ID: Q164535
|
The information in this article applies to:
-
Microsoft Internet Information Server versions 3.0, 4.0
SYMPTOMS
You may receive the following random errors when performing Internet
Database Connector (IDC) or Active Server Pages (ASP) queries to an Access
database:
- CreateObject errors when using ASP sample pages
- Errors in Inetinfo.exe at random memory addresses
- After executing the query, the browser appears to stop responding
CAUSE
This can occur when the Winnt folder does not have write permissions set
for the IUSR_servername account.
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, create System Environment variables for both
TMP and TEMP with the value %SystemDrive%\TEMP, as shown below:
- In Control Panel System, click the Environment tab.
- Select a variable in the System Variables box.
- In the Variable box, select the current variable name and type TMP (or
TEMP).
- Click Set.
- In the Value box, type:
%SystemDrive%\TEMP
- Click Set.
- Close Control Panel and restart the computer.
NOTE: If you are not allowing anonymous authentication, and instead using
Basic or NT Challenge response, you must give the write permission for the
Winnt folder to individual users or groups.
