Problems connecting to .asp page

[j d]

I am running IIS locally on my machine. Everytime I try to
access a page that has a database connection it does not
work. I have the dsn created and checked the connection
and the connection is fine. Here is the error message im
getting: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers
error '80004005'. [MICROSOFT][ODBC Driver Manager] Data
source name not found and no default driver specified.
The page im trying to access is a Sybase database.

The dsn I am using is a system dsn. Here is some more info, I am
helping out to makes some changes on our companies local intranet. So I
decided to copy the directory where our intranet uses its files onto my
local pc an wanted to work locally on my pc. I created a virtural
directory but still have problems as mentioned above. These .asp pages
work fine on out companies local intranet. The problem is having them
work on my pc.

Where is the SYbase database in regards to your PC. Is it local to the PC or
is the database at another location?

Also post the connection code that makes the connection to the Sysbase
database from within the web pages. Also you mention a virtual directory. If
a virtual directory isn't used on the main web server, then you may need to
alter the connections strings within the web pages.
