(sorry my english)
I have the Server Configuration installed on MAC OSX running in MAMP.

I have a problem conecting an Access Data Base ("Can't load library: c:\program files\infozoom\izmjniado.dll" )
I alredy tried the solution that you said in this webpage, but nothing words.
Also i tried using "java.library.path={application.home}/ColdFusion8/lib"

but nothing ...

any idea ?

Thanks

You can't access an Access database on Mac OS X.

Actually, the more exact answer is that neither of the ms access drivers included with CFMX7 or CF8 are available on Mac OSX. They both ultimately use windows ODBC and/or OLEDB to connect to Access. There is at least one set of pure JDBC drivers offered that should work: http://www.filedudes.com/HXTT_Text_JDBC_and_CSV_JDBC_Drivers-download-39988.html.

Most likely you will next run into networking issues if the Access db lives on a windows server. In that case, coldfusion must be run by a user who has permissions on the network and the windows machine where the access file lives.
