MS Access Databases - General Information
We do support MS Access databases on our Windows servers.
We support both DSN and DSN-less connections. The DSN can be set up through your Account Control Panel.
NOTE: MS Access 97 and later versions are supported. However, when possible we suggest you upgrade the database to MS Access 2000 or later. Further, we strongly suggest converting the database to MySQL or MS SQL.
Troubleshooting
800a0e7a Error
If you receive the error below it may be because you are on a Windows 2008 Server and need to update your connection string to use the 64-bit Access driver:
ADODB.Connection error '800a0e7a' Provider cannot be found. It may not be properly installed. /config.inc.asp, line 21
CHANGE:
Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;
TO:
Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;
80004005 Error
If you receive the error below it may be because you need to update the Access driver in your code as shown below:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005' [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified /config.inc.asp, line 31
CHANGE:
Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};
