Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005'

[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Could not update; currently locked by user 'admin' on machine 'IIS671'.

/forum/inc_func_common.asp, line 88


Any idea what this is? It came up when I tried entering one of the scrolls today (clicking back, and trying again got me in two seconds later, though, but it certainly fits the "Strange things happening..." label.

There is a rumour going around that I have found god. I think is unlikely because I have enough difficulty finding my keys, and there is empirical evidence that they exist.

Well, this one wasn't me... because I wasn't doing anything with any forum software at the time this error occured.

Big Al?

Strangely though, or perhaps not so... I've noted that only users of IE experience this problem... at least, more frequently that users of Linux/Firefox/Generic Web Browsers.

I've gotten it on and off with firefox but usually if I hit reload, it goes away.

For some of us, books are as important as almost anything else on earth. What a miracle it is that out of these small, flat, rigid squares of paper unfolds world after world, worlds that sing to you, comfort and quiet and excite you... Books are full of the things that you don't get in real life - wonderful, lyrical language, for instance, right off the bat. - Anne Lamott, Bird by Bird

Well met

I've had this twice since the most to the new host. It appears harmless enough and as stated, a page refresh by whatever method cures the problem. It's certainly not me "admin" and I believe this to be the internal workings of IIS and record locking. i.e. two members attempting to update the same entry at the very same time.

That one was me... but it only happened once for me and for a few other scribes I contacted.

Got it about half a dozen times. And the first time I got it, I ended up doing a triple or quad post.

Strange... I'll have to check the upload logs.

Oh and Alaundo... did you decide anything about those ASP scripts we talked about?

Indeed, Sage. I'll be sending over some code later tonight.

Well, it wasn't me this time. I've only just woken up... so I've done no work on the forum code or ASP scripts.

Whatever it was this time... must have been caused by something else.

I think we should blame The Sage still regardless...

Well met

Indeed, there was a problem with the server last night for a few hours. Ye would have experienced unavailability followed by slow loading times. All appears well now, however

Apologies for the inconvenience.

This is going to sound really strange... but my computer won't log me out of Candlekeep.... Every time I hit logout before I leave the site. When I come back to the site, it says I'm logged on and I haven't yet...

A little advice maybe? Thanks!

"What's that," asked Mogget.
"Sardines," said Sam. "I knew they were standard rations, so I got a few tins for you."
"What are sardines?" Moggest asked suspiciously. "And why is there a key? Is this some sort of Abhorsen joke?"

Hmmmm... I had this problem a few days back, but it had more to do with mods I'd made to SageOS than anything directly related to Candlekeep.

Have you set your individual browser to automatically log-in by chance? This can occur, if it is set, when the forum is loaded up or refreshed.

I don't remember setting my browser to do that. How do I tell if that's set?

I'm don't actually remember how you can do it in either IE or Firefox.

Well met

I don't believe there is a setting for a function such as automatic logon within actual browser settings. I'd suggest removing any cookies from your system. This should set things back to normal

If you have further problems, please email me.
