Database Access using pyodbc. I've a problem

[Rajendran]

Hi all,

I've installed pyodbc module to access my database (MS Access). I've
setup a User level DSN to the database.mdb file. When I run my python
code in the command prompt it is retrieving the database contents and
displaying it (HTML output).
But when I run that python from webserver (http://localhost/cgi-bin/
database.py) there comes an  entry in the error log of Apache server
that says:

[Sat Jun 16 17:55:57 2007] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] Premature end of
script headers: database.py

[Sat Jun 16 17:55:57 2007] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] pyodbc.Error:
('HY000', "[HY000] [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] The

Driver] The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the file
'(unknown)'.  It is already opened exclusively by another user, or you

Even though the MS Access file is closed.

I've no administrator rights and I've installed all these as a normal
windows user.

I don't have problem when I write a similar kind of code in PHP. What
could be the reason? Is it because I don't have administrator rights?
or something else?
Please help me out.
