Please help... I'm trying to set up a database connection via an IP address
and always get this error when testing the database connection: HTTP Error
Code 404, file not found. Here are some of the possible reasons for the
problem: There is no testing server on the server machine -or- The testing
server on this machine does not map to the
[url]http://172.*******/mi****/mis*****/MMServersripts/MMHTTPDB.asp[/url] url. In this
environment the Testing Server and Remote Server are the same, they are both
accessed via FTP. I can test the FTP connection successfully on both. I can
synchronize with the remote no problem so it seems that the FTP settings are
correct. Here are the settings for the Testing server: Server Model:
ASP.NET VB Access: FTP FTP host: 172.**.*.*** Host directory: /mis***mis***/
Login: ***** Pass: ***** URL prefix: [url]http://172.**.*.***/mis***/mis***[/url] /*This
is a concatentation of the FTP host IP and the Host directory. This is one of
the 8 or so database connections strings that I have tried unsuccessfully:
'Data Source=192.***.***.**, 1433; Network Library=SSNETLIB; Initial
Catalog=mis*******; User Id=customer********; Password=*****!' My impression
is that the application isn't getting past the Testing Server error to attempt
the database connection so the connection string seems irrelevant, but hey, at
this point I'll try just about anything. Perplexed...
