It's not really an ASP question, unless there's an ASP issue you're
running into. Might try the IIS newsgroup, or the UBlog support
forums. And when you do, at least tell them where you're having
trouble. For all we know, you can't install it because you haven't
figured out where to plug in the keyboard.

I got it working easily by following the instructions at:
http://www.uapplication.com/ublog/doc.asp

What, specifically, is the problem?

HOW TO INSTALL Ublog - Access version

Requirements:

- web sever supporting ASP and database Microsoft Access

The installation of Ublog is very simple and it is so structured:

1)

- unzip all the files keeping the directory structure intact.
....


Move the unzipped folder structure to c:\inetpub\wwwroot\

Rename the folder from "UblogAccess - 1.6" to "Ublog".

Edit "C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\Ublog\include\common.asp"
and change line 34 from
StrPath = "d:\inetpub\webs\tuositocom\public\images_upload"
to
StrPath = "C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\Ublog\public\images_upload"

Start your Web server then visit http://localhost/Ublog

What do you see?
