Help with IIS server Error (Provider error '80040154' Class not registered)

[Martin Franklin]

I am trying to get a total record count on a Acess 97 mdb database. However
I get the following error when I try to load the page:

Provider error '80040154' Class not registered
http://www.assetresearch.com/clog/count.asp

I believe permissions for the IUSR_machine are correct as I am able to add
and delete records from the database through other ASP pages in the site.
Any ideas on what Class needs to be re-registered. If so, how do I do it?

<%
set conn=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
conn.Provider="Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0"
conn.Open(Server.Mappath("clogin.mdb"))
conn.CursorLocation = 3

set rs=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.recordset")
sql="SELECT * FROM users"
rs.Open sql,conn

if rs.Supports(adApproxPosition)=true then
i=rs.RecordCount
response.write("The number of records is: " & i)
end if
rs.Close
conn.Close
%>

Any help is this matter is greatly appreciated

Which one is line 17?

http://www.assetresearch.com/clog/count.asp

I believe permissions for the IUSR_machine are correct as I am able

<%

conn.Provider="Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0"
conn.Open(Server.Mappath("clogin.mdb"))
conn.CursorLocation = 3

set rs=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.recordset")
sql="SELECT * FROM users"
rs.Open sql,conn

if rs.Supports(adApproxPosition)=true then

This is the wrong property to check for Supports. It's Bookmarkability that
determines whether or not the cursor supports recordcount. Anyways, you set
cursorLocation to 3 above, so you have a client-side cursor that
automatically supports recordcount because a client-side cursor is always a
Static cursor which supports recordcount.

i=rs.RecordCount
response.write("The number of records is: " & i)
end if
rs.Close
conn.Close
%>

Any help is this matter is greatly appreciated

As a guess, you have an Access97 database which uses Jet 3.51, and you are
using the Jet 4.0 provider to open it. I have never had a problem with this,
but then again, I never use the RecordCount property, so this error may have
been waiting in the wings for me all this time.

Mr. Barrows

One thing I failed to mention in my original post is the fact that this code
works on my testing server. My problem arises when I try to run the same
page on my ISP's web server. I've actually tested this code on two of my own
web servers without any problems. Line 17 pertains one of the following
lines of code below. My development tool lists line 17 as 'rs.Open sql,
conn' but I believe the true offending line of code pertains to the line
below it 'i-rs.RecordCount' .

rs.Open sql,conn
i=rs.RecordCount

I've further trimmed my code as suggested by removing 'if
rs.Supports(adApproxPosition)=true then' . Thanks for the catch. My new
complete code is...

<%
set conn=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
conn.Provider="Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0"
conn.Open(Server.Mappath("clogin.mdb"))
conn.CursorLocation = 3

set rs=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.recordset")
sql="SELECT * FROM users"
rs.Open sql, conn

i=rs.RecordCount
response.write("The number of records is: " & i)

rs.Close
conn.Close
%>

Perhaps my question would be better suited for a form on IIS config. Any
further suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Have you commented out the line to verify this belief?

rs.Open sql,conn
i=rs.RecordCount

All I can suggest is an MDAC upgrade/repair on the server which is giving
you the problem..
