SETTING THE DATABASE ACCESS METHOD AND PATH

To operate this web interface you must edit the path to the database that is used by the scripts.
Please open the file ‘global.asp’ to be found in the ‘Assets/Images/’ subdirectory of the FSP web directory.
We assume that your mode of database access is direct file read/write.
Please set audbmode=’file’ and select a provider from the list.
Please modify the audbpath argument to the path corresponding with your MS flightsimulator home directory.
Last, file permissions must be set for ‘fsp.mdb’ in the fspilot/database directory to enable IUSR_YOURCOMPUTERNAME to read/write to the database

Alternatively, you may use the ODBC database access method.
Please uncomment audbmode=odbc and comment audbmode=file:
audbmode="odbc"
‘ audbmode="file"

Install an ODBC data source named fsp pointing to the FSPilot database: fsp.mdb.

SETTING THE PATH TO SCREENSHOTS

Please open global.asp and set the correct path to the folder where your FSP screenshots are located.
You may even enter a relative path to operate the website on a server (NT or a Windows 2003 web server).

'
