SYMPTOMS
========
You may receive the following random errors when performing Internet Database
Connector (IDC) or Active Server Pages (ASP) queries to an Access database:
- CreateObject errors when using ASP sample pages
- Errors in Inetinfo.exe at random memory addresses
- After executing the query, the browser appears to stop responding
CAUSE
=====
This can occur when the Winnt folder does not have write permissions set for the
IUSR_servername account.
WORKAROUND
==========
To work around this problem, create System Environment variables for both TMP
and TEMP with the value %SystemDrive%\TEMP, as shown below:
1. In Control Panel System, click the Environment tab.
2. Select a variable in the System Variables box.
3. In the Variable box, select the current variable name and type TMP (or TEMP).
4. Click Set.
5. In the Value box, type:
" %SystemDrive%\TEMP " (without the quotation marks)
6. Click Set.
7. Close Control Panel and restart the computer.
NOTE: If you are not allowing anonymous authentication, and instead using Basic
or NT Challenge response, you must give the write permission for the Winnt
folder to individual users or groups.
