Unable to upload access database

[Guest]

I created a site that uses an Access DB. The access database has 4 tables
that each contain certain characteristics of my main table. So I linked the
tables to the main one that I am using for my web-site.

Now, however whenever I try to FTP the web-site, I can only upload about 2%
of a 20MB database.

Is it possible that because I am linking the files, the ftp program I am
using is unable to upload the database

I doubt that your FTP software cares whether or not the file is a
database--it just sees a file. I suspect there is some other issue going on.
Have you set binary mode as an option?

Yes, I called the tech support team and they said everything is working from
their end.

Also, my localhost server has Both Apache and IIS installed. I also noticed
that under Services that the IIS Adminstration doesn't display FTP publishing
could that be a problem?

However, I was able to upload everything else including the web-site pages.

The database that I created contains queries, linked tables, Modules, and
Macros. Normally I wouldn't bring that up but it believe one of these might
be causing the problem since the ftp doesn't upload much before it freezes up
and quits.

Hi Rudodoo,

If you'd like to try using a different server, you can try a test account
that I have set up at Comcast. I will leave the password in effect for a
couple of days.

Host Name/Address: upload.comcast.net
Host Type: Unix (standard)
User ID: fmstransfer
Password: rudodoo1
Account:

(Leave Account blank).

I'm interested to know if you still have problems uploading to this site.

Have you tried ftp'ing any other large files to that site? Something also
around 20mb? Maybe you are running into some limitation.

No, but I did have to upload several thousand pics one at a time your command
line prompt solution worked. I also used it to change the DSN name, which
was something that I had to do when I put the database on the remote server.
Could I use that command line prompt to create something similiar to a cron
job? I know that you have to use Windows Task Manager but it only runs exe
files
