Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error ‘80004005’

[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified

/2008/mission.asp, line 174

Notes: strange the error states no data source name found and no default driver specified. If you are certain your code is correct. Please contact your host and ensure the web folder has been set as a application. This resolved the error for me.
