APPLIES TO

  • Microsoft Site Server 3.0 Standard Edition



This article was previously published under Q246128

SYMPTOMS

When you attempt to create a new Active User Object (AUO) provider using the Site Server Service Admin (HTML), the following error message is displayed:

Could not connect to the specified DSN.

CAUSE

The .asp files that are called when a new AUO provider is created include the text ".1.5" after the ADODB.Connection object. This text, ".1.5," incorrectly specifies the component version.

RESOLUTION

In each of these .asp files, remove the text ".1.5" from the ADODB.Connection line (this error only occurs on one line in each file).

These files are Odbcwiz04.asp, Odbcwiz05.asp, Odbcwiz06.asp, and Odbcwiz11.asp, and they are located in the \Microsoft Site Server\SiteServer\Admin\Knowledge\Persmbr folder.

Note: Because the component version is subject to change, the version number is not normally explicitly specified in code, so that the current version is automatically used.

WORKAROUND

Use the Site Server Service Admin (MMC) to create the new AUO provider.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Site Server 3.0.
