I am trying to connect Ms Access DataBase from php . My codes like this in config.php
define('DBNAMEACCESS', '\\'."\\xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx\\test\\test.accdb");
define('DBACCESSPASSWORD', 'mypassword');
define('DBACCESSUSERNAME', '');
and in process.php like this:
include './config.php';
if (!file_exists(DBNAMEACCESS)) {
die("Could not find database file.");
}
try{
$dbName=DBNAMEACCESS;
$username=DBACCESSUSERNAME;
$password=DBACCESSPASSWORD;
$dba = odbc_connect("Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb, *.accdb)};Dbq=$dbName",$username, $password);
if ($dba) {
/*......*/
} else
{
die("Could not connect to access database");
}
}
catch (Exception $ex) {
// var_export($ex);
setmessage($ex) ;
}
when the password is defined for access file , I get this error on this line: My error: odbc_connect(): SQL error: [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Cannot open database '(unknown)'. It may not be a database that your application recognizes, or the file may be corrupt., SQL state S1000 in SQLConnect in this line
$dba = odbc_connect("Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb, *.accdb)};Dbq=$dbName",$username, $password);
and when the password is not defined for access file,My codes execute correctly.
