Provide a working connection path in an asp file that links to a Database on a Godaddy Windows hosted site.

This project is to only modify a single LINE OF CODE - sample below.

You should have experience with Godaddy, ASP files, links to databases, and be able to modify the code without getting access to my Godaddy account.

If you are qualified, I’ll create a milestone for the project amount and you can send me the updated line of code. I’ll change the asp file and verify it works. It is ok to try multiple code variations.

Summary - Multiple dictionary websites each use an asp database search file that points to the same database in a different directory.

Godaddy changed the directory structure for one of their upgrades and the link to the database file in another directory is not working anymore.

I’ve setup a temporary solution which points to a database file in a subdirectory of the asp file.

The desired database connection link needs to point to the database in a different directory. The same database is used by 20+ websites.

Desired Connection Sample - (originally worked) - link to database in other directory at same level - conStr = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & [login to view URL]("../databases/[login to view URL]") & ";User ID=;Password=;"

Temporary Fix - link to database in sub directory - conStr = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & [login to view URL]("./database/[login to view URL]") & ";User ID=;Password=;"

I get the general idea except I need a clarification. Did the GoDaddy change affect database access for only 1 site or all of them? Do you get an error that database not found or access violation? I understand you w More
