Oracle client and networking components were not found
I am getting the following error message:

Oracle client and networking components were not found. These components are supplied by Oracle Corporation and are part of the Oracle Version 7.3.3 or later client software installation. Provider is unable to function until these components are installed.
Show Answer
Assuming that the Oracle client software has been installed on the web server then probably permissions related in that the IUSER_ does not have access the Oracle DLL.

This is explained in the following MS KB article.

Installing DbNetSuite on a shared server
How do I go about installing DbNetSuite on a shared server?
Show Answer
Download the DbNetSuite zip archive and upload it to your shared server. Extract the zip archive into a new folder and then create the following seven virtual folders in IIS, making each one an application;

(3) 'dbnetedit' maps onto the DbNetEdit subfolder of the installation folder
(4) 'dbnetfile' maps onto the DbNetFile subfolder of the installation folder
(5) 'dbnetcombo' maps onto the DbNetCombo subfolder of the installation folder
(6) 'dbnetlist' maps onto the DbNetList subfolder of the installation folder

Cannot update. Database or object is read only ~2147217911.
When I try and edit data using one of the sample applications or save a profile in the Designer I get the message:

"Cannot update. Database or object is read only ~2147217911."
Show Answer
This is a permissions problem and requires the O/S file permissions on the files desngr.mdb and/or customer.mdb (in the samples folder) to be changed.

To do this follow the following steps:

1. Selet the file using Windows Explorer
2. Right-click on the file and select Properties
3. Select the Security tab
4. Assign "Full Control" to "Everyone" and click "OK"


<<<<<<<<<<<<< Windows XP Pro >>>>>>>>>>>>>

If you are running Windows XP Pro you may find that the Security tab is not available, if this is the case then you can try one of two things:

1. In Windows Explorer, select Tools/Folder Options/View and uncheck "Use simple file sharing". Then you'll get the security dialogs.

2. Add an identity tag to the web.config file to run as a user with a higher levels of permissions e.g.

The page cannot be displayed (HTTP 405)
Why am I getting a "HTTP 405 Error" message ?
Show Answer
If you are running Windows 2003 server then ASP.NET may not be installed. To install ASP.NET

1) Go to Control Panel --> Add/Remove Programs --> Windows Components

2) Select "Application Server"

3) Click on the "Details" button

4) Make sure that "ASP.NET" is checked


If you are running Windows 2000 or XP this error can occur if you installed IIS after you installed the .Net Framework

If this is the case then you may need to register manually the dll aspnet_isapi.dll found in the .Net install folder. To do so, follow these steps:

1) Click Start, and then click Run.

2) Type regsvr32 %windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\\aspnet_isapi.dll, and then click OK.

Compiler Error Message: CS1595: 'object' is defined in multiple places;
Why do get this error message:

Compiler Error Message: CS1595: 'object' is defined in multiple places;
using definition from
'C:\winnt\microsoft.net\framework\v1.0.3705\mscorlib.dll'
Show Answer
This is caused by the fact that the ASPNET account does not have permission to access the folders in the path to the mscorlib.dll assembly.

You will need to grant the necessary permissions to the ASPNET account. For more information see:

Access denied to DbNetGrid virtual directory.
Why am I getting the following error:

Access denied to 'C:\Program Files\dbnetgrid\' directory. Failed to start monitoring directory changes.
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

Exception Details: System.Web.HttpException: Access denied to 'C:\Program Files\dbnetgrid\' directory. Failed to start monitoring directory changes.
Show Answer
By design, ASP.NET requires read, execute, and list access for the ASPNET account (the Aspnet_wp.exe process account) on the root Web site or on any virtual directory. This is necessary so that ASP.NET can access the content files and can monitor file changes.

Server Application Unavailable
I am getting the folowing message:

Server Application Unavailable
The web application you are attempting to access on this web server is currently unavailable. Please hit the "Refresh" button in your web browser to retry your request.

Administrator Note: An error message detailing the cause of this specific request failure can be found in the application event log of the web server. Please review this log entry to discover what caused this error to occur.
Show Answer
To get the definitive reason for this error you will need to look in the Event Log. The usual cause is a permission issue because the ASPNET account does not gave permission to access the folder mapped to the virtual folder.
