NT Problem with adding categories
Hi,
I'm trying to install links 2.0, but I'm not able to add a category, although all scripts are installed in a directory were I've always used Access dsn-less connections to update, delete records in a database. So I think that permissions are right.
I've checked also use flock to 0 and to 1 getting no results.

this is the error: Permission denied in opening directory.db

Can someone help me about it?

Thanks

I am assuming that you changed categories.db to directory.db, correct?

Welp, the important thing to keep in mind is that DSN files are very different than flat files. Basically permissions are set-up via the ODBC driver.

The error messages indicates that there is definitely a permission problem with your directory.db file.

It, along with your database files, needs to have the following permissions:

Code:

Administrator = Full Control
Everyone = Read, Execute
Account Owner = Read, Write, Execute, Delete
IWAM/MACHINENAME = Read, Write, Execute, Delete
IUSR/MACHINENAME = Read, Write, Execute

Many thanks Elliot,
I've checked the permissions, and they were unright.
