I'm using ASP.NET with C#. GoDaddy is my webhost. I have tried 3 different databases, (that is why I didn't post this problem on one of the specific database forums) MySQL, Access, and MS SQL. All of the databases are available in GoDaddy and were set up there.
I am also using OleDb connections.
MySQL:
Here is the connections string I used at first
Provider=MySQLProv; Data Source=p50mysql13.secureserver.net; Initial Catalog=***; User Id=***; Password='***';
That did not work though because I did not have the MySQLProv provider on my local machine (which I take to mean on my PC that I am working on). I installed it multiple times from mutiple sources but none of them worked. So instead of that provider I decided to try MS Jet.
When using Jet I get this error instead:
Multiple-step OLE DB operation generated errors. Check each OLE DB status value, if available. No work was done.
I looked into this error and the most info I could find was that the wrong value might be trying to be inserted into the database. I checked over this and am positive that is not the problem.
MS Access:
Connection String is
"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Data Source=d:\\hosting\\***\\access_db\\; User ID=***; Password='***';"
Now I am getting this error:
Cannot start your application. The workgroup information file is missing or opened exclusively by another user.
The research I did on this tells me that I need a .mdw file to set the correct permissions. I was pointed to being able to use the one given as part of Acces (System.mdw), but it doesn't work and I get the same error.
MS SQL:
Now this seemed to have the proper connection string and everything. My problem is with the first query it encounters.
SELECT * FROM product
Error is:
Invalid object name 'product'
Unfortunately I have never used MS SQL before so I am not exactly sure what the problem is with this.
I am at a stuck point for all three of these cases and how no idea which way to turn. What would be my best bet?
Thanks for any help.
