Ask your host.

I have and still waiting on reply. most of there setup examples are with
frontpage 2002. meanwhile still looking for good answers.

 

[Thomas A. Rowe]

If the host provides examples for FP2002, the same will work for FP2003, as you will not find any
support built into FP to support MySQL server.

there examples show the way to setup with mysql with 2002
(http://support.meccahosting.com/database/frontpage/index.html) but win
following them in fp2003 not finding the same.

 

[Thomas A. Rowe]

In FP2003 replace the word "Web" with "Site" when look at menus

Have you installed the MySQL driver and have you contacted your host for help?

within site settings when i drop down to select the driver sql and odbc are
there but no mysql. ive installed mysql 4.1 server and 5.0. will those
install drivers in the correct place??

 

[Thomas A. Rowe]

It the install package is written correctly, it should install correctly You would have to deal with
the folder that provide the drivers for any issues with them.

Also, you will need to be running Windows XP Pro with IIS installed, if you want to be able to test
this locally.
