Q:
I am having this error:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005'
[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access 97 Driver]
The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the file '(unknown)'.
It is already opened exclusively by another
user, or you need permission to view its data.
A:
This can happen if IIS can't write the Jet lock file because IUSR_MACHINE doesn't have write permissions to the directory containing the .mdb file.
