Hello
I need some help!
.

I have dreamweaver-8, cold-fusion-mx7 & access database “mdb” files. All of this is setup local on my computer and I have made record sets to dynamically place items on web pages.
.
All of this is working fine locally on my computer.
.
Now for the problem!
I have a hosting account at Godaddy.com. I have added cold fusion to the account.
I have transferred static web page files to the hosting account with “ftp” and they are working fine.
My dynamic “cfm” web pages are also transferring fine and the static parts are loading fine.
.
But, I can’t get the access tables loaded at Godaddy.com so that my record sets can find the tables.
I have called Godaddy and no luck.
.

you need to ask GoDaddy tech support to create a CF DSN (datasource
name) for you.
you will likely need to tell them:
the name of the .mdb file
the name to give to the cf dsn
username and password for accessing the .mdb, if any

they will also probably tell you where you need to upload the .mdb file to.

i am pretty sure all this is in their FAQ...

I believe you can do this through their administration portal, but their
site is not responding right now for me to check.

You get what you pay for with SlowDaddy hosting. Contrary to what the pricing structure suggests, I typically recommend Go Daddy for a bit more advanced developer (but modest needs) rather than a newbie because beginners usually need a level of support that Go Daddy has a reputation of not being able to provide.

Shared web hosting!

This is why I don’t have control of my hosting account.

Thank You

If you are a paid customer for GoDaddy.com they'd have given you the control panel access for your hosting. Using that login to the control panrel, wherein u wil have access to the Database admin & CF admin. You can create the CF DSN on ur own & update that in the Database.

If not, send a mail to the admin of Godaddy to create CF DSN and once it is done, copy the .mdb files to the database location in GoDaddy webspace allocated for u using FTP.
Hope this would help u.
