Database Results Wizard Error

John · Feb 3, 2004

Am using Win2K, IIS5 and FP2k3

Am suddenly receiving this error on a database search results page:

Database Results Wizard Error
The operation failed. If this continues, please contact your server
administrator.

This occurs on my local test site (localhost) and the online site has
inherited the problem when I last published. Must have something to do with
the settings in IIS5 but I'm fairly clueless when it comes to that program.

Edit the file fpdbrgn1.inc (in the _fpclass folder) and set fp_DEBUG = True
and then try again and tell us what the error message is.

This is the code for the page which has been creating problems since around
Tuesday last week. Strange thing is that the page wasn't touched, but the
UKDate seems to be creating a problem all of a sudden.

Maybe I'm paranoid, but didn't Microsoft issue a new patch around the same
time?

<START-CODE>

<table width="100%" border="1">
<thead>
<tr>
<th ALIGN="LEFT"><b>UKDate</b></th>
<th ALIGN="LEFT"><b>Key</b></th>
<th ALIGN="LEFT"><b>LongHeadline</b></th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>

<% if 0 then %>
<SCRIPT Language="JavaScript">
document.write("<div style='background: yellow; color: black;'>The Database
Results component on this page is unable to display database content. The
page must have a filename ending in '.asp', and the web must be hosted on a
server that supports Active Server Pages.</div>");
</SCRIPT>
<% end if %>

fp_sColTypes="&UKDate=202&Key=3&LongHeadline=202&"
fp_iDisplayCols=3
fp_fCustomQuery=True
BOTID=0
fp_iRegion=BOTID
%>

<tr>
<td>
<%=FP_FieldVal(fp_rs,"UKDate")%></td>
<td>
<%=FP_FieldVal(fp_rs,"Key")%></td>
<td>
<%=FP_FieldVal(fp_rs,"LongHeadline")%></td>
</tr>

</tbody>
</table>
</td>

</END-CODE>

I made the change you specified and the Error message it gives is as
follows:

Database Results Wizard Error
Your page contains a query with user input parameters that could not be
resolved.
This could happen if your DatabaseRegionStart webbot has an empty or missing
s-columnnames or s-columntypes attributes.
You may need to read Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 817029.

Thanks

John:
Please try this workaround and let us know if it works (or not):

There is an issue in the way the code is parsed to determine valid field
names in the data view.

To work around this problem, modify the ASP script in the asp page of your
Web site. To do this, follow these steps:
1. Open the asp in Frontpage 2003 and switch to Code View
2. On the "Edit" menu, click "Find".
3. In the "Find what" box, type "fp_sColTypes" (without the quotation
marks), and then click "Find Next".
4. Type a trailing ampersand (&) inside the closing quotation marks. For
example, the fp_sColTypes line should now look exactly like the following
example:
<fp_sColTypes="&name=value&name=value&name=value&">
5. On the "File" menu, click "Save"

Replace the current includes (in the _fpclass directory) with the ones from
FP 2000/2

Kathleen,

I tried your suggestion:

"Edit the file fpdbrgn1.inc (in the _fpclass folder) and set fp_DEBUG = True
and then try again and tell us what the error message is."

I see no difference in the error message.

Sincerely,
Paul E Bushnell
