What does this error mean?

Could not find the ColdFusion Component or Interface  Components.Data.MSSqlDataProvider.Ensure that the name is correct and  that the component or interface exists. The specific sequence of files  included or processed is: C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\WENS_DEV\login.cfm, line: 4

The thing that ismind boggling is this came out of nowhere. THe file that it says it can't find is on  the server, I have logged in and physically seen it sitting there. So I am not sure what it is referring too. Also before this happened, I lost connection within dreamweaver. I have since reconnected in dreamweaver, but every time I try to upload a file it gives me a "file activity incomplete".

Something changed or has happened and I don't know what. I only post here to see if it might be something simple I am overlooking.

I use passive ftp within dreamweaver to connect, and the error above is flooding the cf admin log files.

    CFCs can't just be on the computer - they have to be in specific places.  Your choices are, the same directory as the file calling it, somewhere directly upstream from that directory, the spot specified on your admin page, or the spot identified in the mappings of your application.cfc.

    You might find filezilla to be better than dreamweaver for uploading files.
