I just downloaded the package to see the license since I couldn't find it on any of the pages...and it does specifically state that you may not: "use the software for commercial software hosting services" So, it looks like hosts offering it free is out.

Re: from 6 to 7
hmmm...got me thinking...what is the actual licensing for sql express? so far my googling has failed...previous versions of MSDE weren't good for anything more than a small app due to the throttling, but this version doesn't have that anymore...the limits of 1GB of RAM, 1 processor and 4GB database size put a lot off web apps within reach on that platform. Does anyone know of a link to the actual license agreement for SQL Express? I'd like to see what the fine print says.

Re: from 6 to 7
Oh, I know all about how bad Access is. The fact remains that this is an old, semi-poorly written application (from a maintenance standpoint, not a functional one), which would require LOTS of attention to upgrade to mySQL or SQL Server. With all the billable work piling up around here, I'd like to just leave this app until I can give it the proper time for the upgrade. All of my apps these days are using a "real" DB. I really am impressed with mySQL lately, though. As Ray Camden wrote in his blog a few days ago, there is a whole world of features that I didn't ever know about. Anyways, thanks for the help guys, it was appreciated. Ray Burns, John D wrote: > Even mySQL would be an upgrade if you can't afford the SQL upgrade.

Access is never a good web DB solution. It was never designed to handle that kind of traffic. It was designed to handle a salesman's client list or a home user's address book.

RE: from 6 to 7
Well we all know how bad access can get under load... is it possible that they mapped it using the wrong db type? I believe CF7 introduced MS Access vs MS Access Unicode. Also are persistent connections to the db enabled? How big is the access file? If it's a big file, and persistent connections are not enabled, I can see it timing out form time to time.

Re: from 6 to 7
Sorry, was out shoveling snow. :( Nope, this is an Access DB. I know that's not the best situation, but like I said, it was my first project, and it worked fine on the other server. And, just so it's known, I'm on a shared host, so there is no access to anything outside my web root, including the administrator.

RE: from 6 to 7
As a side question, does the site appear to perform slower on the new server? If not, it seems rather odd that the server times out periodically trying to connect to the database but that it doesn't act slower on regular page calls. As a quick fix, you could possibly increase the timeout time for the connection to the database. That doesn't solve the root problem, but may get it to at least stop timing out.

RE: from 6 to 7
As well as the question other have asked about "which database" are you using, I also wonder if this server sits in a different segment of the network than the previous one. If the server and the database are further removed, they could have network issues that are causing longer delays in the calls to the database. You may want to ask if there is a database server in the same segment as your server that you could use instead of your old one. That's a shot in the dark, but you may want to research it.
