I created an asp feedback form from frontpage. Under form properties I chose to send to database, under options chose to create database. It created a fpdb folder with the new database in it. I have given everyone full rights to the folder. However, when entering data into the form, it is not writing to the db? If I run it on my personal web server on my local machine it works great. Is there something on IIS that I need to set up. I have set up a user dsn and system dsn for the db. I am running iis5.0 with front page 2000. I have installed the front page extensions. The only thing that I have not done is install office 2002 on iis. As you can see I am new to both iis and asp.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
 
try checking the security on your web:

1. open IIS
2. right-click your web site (or virtual directory, whichever is appropriate) and select Properties
3. click on the Directory Security tab and click on the Edit button.
4. Uncheck all Authentication Methods except Anonymous Access.
5. Click OK to close the windows.
6. Run IISRESET.EXE on the command prompt


hope this works

:)
