I am facing a problem with my server

Microsoft JET Database Engine (0x80004005)
Cannot open database ". It may not be a database that your applocation recognizes, or the file may be corrupt.

My asp page isn't able to open up the database which it previously was able to. I am uploading via frontpage. I suspect it is a server problem. Can anyone enlighten me on what is going on? Thanks

Gd references and troubleshooting methodologies are welcome

It does sound like you are correct and it is a corruption in the database - try downloading it, taking a backup, running a repair operation from Access, and re-uploading it.
