Thank you for selecting Active Resource Index.

To get started you will need to change one line in the SETUP.ASP file.

Line #30: dbname = "c:\inetpub\wwwroot\ari11\index.mdb"

Change the line above to the path on your webserver where you are allowed to read/write to database files. This is typically in a folder called 'db' or 'database'. Below are more specifics.

Step 1:

Copy either index97.mdb or index.mdb to the location you can read/write to database files. These files are Microsoft Access 97 and Microsoft Access 2000 database files. Select one file to use depending on the version of your server's Microsoft Access drivers. Index97.mdb should work for both flavors of the driver. So use Index97.mdb if you have no idea what drivers your server is using.

Step 2:

Change the line #30: dbname = "c:\inetpub\wwwroot\ari11\index.mdb" to the location you placed the database files. If the files were placed in a sub-folder of your site. Use the path information below to guide you to the right location of the database.

Here is how to do this:

If you placed index97.mdb in a sub-folder called 'mydatabase' and the server is reporting the current path to be c:\inetpub\websites\myserver\default.asp.

Your dbname line should be the following: (Line #30)

dbname = "c:\inetpub\websites\myserver\mydatabase\index97.mdb"

Step 3:

Start the program by clicking here CLICK HERE (results.asp). (If you encounter problems check your path)

Your Server reports the current path and file is: (Use this path to guide you)
