ADO not supported on server
Question:
My hosts tell me :
"ADO cannot be supported on our servers - the only driver for MySQL->iASP is the JDBC driver"
Does this mean I cannot use PureASPuploader?
Answer:Yes, you really need ADO 2.5+ to run Pure ASP Upload. Without it you won't be able to use Pure ASP Upload. All decent providers that offer NT hosting do provide ADO support. I suggest you find a better provider.

ADO BUG IN PURE ASP UPLOAD
For Pure Upload Version 2.14
If you look at lines 66 to 71, in the incPureUpload.asp file, you will find this:
if adoVersion < 25 then
Response.Write "<b>You don't have ADO 2.5 installed on the server.</b><br/>"
Response.Write "The File Upload extension needs ADO 2.5 or greater to run properly.<br/>"
Response.Write "You can download the latest MDAC (ADO is included) from <a href=""www.microsoft.com/data"">www.microsoft.com/data</a><br/>"
Response.End
end if
it's looking for ADO version 25!! NOT 2.5!! I find the response in this FAQ to be very wrong, and it cost me a LOT of time and a very very unhappy customer. I was recieving the same error, when in fact, my host was providing ADO version 2.8.
I had installed MDAC 2.8, but I can't use Pure ASP Upload
My business use the Windows Server 2003 Operation System. We buy the Pure ASP Upload, but we can't use it.
It display this:
You don't have ADO 2.5 installed on the server.
The File Upload extension needs ADO 2.5 or greater to run properly.
You can download the latest MDAC (ADO is included) from www.microsoft.com/data
But I used "MDAC Utility: Component Checker", that displayed my MDAC is version 2.8. Then I can't use it either.
Sorry, can you provide the current download address for MDAC version?
Thanks!
