IIS, asp and databases

[Jim Bowman]

I am getting inconsistent results from an e-learning
program - asp page - database connection.

I have installed IIS on my computer from Win XP Pro. My
authoring program (Authorware 5.2) executes a ReadURL
function that calls an asp page. The asp page contains a
SQL SELECT command that is sent to an Access database.
If the desired record exists in the database, the record
is sent back to the asp page which sends it back to the
Authorware file where the contents of the record
display. If an error occurs, an error message displays.

When I first boot up the computer and run the Authorware
file, the sequence runs correctly. On the 2nd run and
most subsequent runs, Authorware returns an error,
IOStatus = 5006 and a message = "unknown error (5006)".
On an occasional subsequent run, the example runs
correctly. Then on the next run, it returns the same
error.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled IIS and have checked
the Authorware and asp page carefully. The problem
persists. What might be the cause of this inconsistency?

Thanks.

Yes, I have researched Authorware support. No help

there for this issue.

Thanks.
