Very Weird , plz help

[Nuno Caldas]

K i got this prob :

Im building an app that will read from a foxpro dbf , find out if the table
is empty and if it is it will be overwritten with a blank one (using
filesystemobject)

My prob is this,

On my local pc all goes well , when i upload it to the server i get a file
does not exist error , both the server and my pc have exactly the same
folder tree and the same files ( ive checked it over 100 times now ) but the
error still persists.

I have a folder called DirEscrita in wich i have put the dbf file to scan
for data , and i get this error when trying to do a simple select on it:

Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80040e37'

[Microsoft][ODBC Visual FoxPro Driver]File 'trf.dbf' does not exist.

/exporta.asp, line 12

I know that it cant be a prob with the code , cause it works fine locally
( im on a XP PRO IIS 5.1) , could it be the server? ( IIS 5.0 )

This is most likely a permissions issue. Does your IUSR account have NTFS
read/write permissions to this file?
