Question

Format of the initialization string does not conform to the OLE DB specification.

Asked by: coreybryant

I am trying to add an ad script to my website.  I had a previous version and it was very easy to install and get to work.  However this time is very difficult.

I was able to get through part of the set-up the first time, but then I was not able to sign in (I would get an error re: invalid username / password).  I copied the MS Access db and opened that one to confirm the information.  

Since I had made a few changes, I decided to start fresh and place the files in the folders that they were in when unzipped (I did have the MSAccess db in a folder off from the Internet).  So this time, I just uploaded the DB into the original folder and re-started.

I would get some new errors this time - i.e. on line 17, it told me the @ sign was invalid.  Then it said one of the periods was incorrect in the Mail_RemoteHost.  It also required a SMTPUsername and SMTPPassword (I just entered something in there).

Now this code is supposed to write the correct connection string as well - it gave me:
"DBQ=c:\clients\C10489\mymerchantaccountblog.com\public_html\data\banner.mdb;Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}"

But when I said to save connection string - this error came up:
Database connection error

Format of the initialization string does not conform to the OLE DB specification.  

Any ideas on what I can change / fix?

It looks to me like most of the values on what you posted should be strings, in which case you need to enclose them in double quotes:

I was thinking that might be the case as well, but that did not work.

It is not clear how you are using what you posted. IF indeed it is an asp file, then what I posted is what you need. Unless you clarify how/where you are using what you posted you won't get any useful suggestions.

Yes it is an ASP file - the complete ASP file.  The ASP file is called in a couple of pages one being aspbanner/save_settings.asp.

On about line 20, there is data/config/aspbanner_unlimited_config.asp, when the "correct" path should be ../data/config/aspbanner_unlimited_config.asp - but changing it to ../data/config/aspbanner_unlimited_config.asp did not help - I received the same error.

As far as what it does, I am exactly sure, that why I came here, to hopefully get a little advice.

If you need to - the passwords / usernames are not valid.

Thanks!  I'll change things around as well once I get this up and running, but the username / passwords listed are not real.

>>On about line 20, there is data/config/aspbanner_unlimited_config.asp, when the "correct" path should be ../data/config/aspbanner_unlimited_config.asp - but changing it to ../data/config/aspbanner_unlimited_config.asp did not help - I received the same error.

it sounds like Parent Paths might not be enabled on your server. Refer to:

Thanks - I had enabled the parent paths but I did not stop IIS and restart it.  So I thought I would stop IIS and restart the service and now I am able to log in to the site.
