I got an error with my Msaccess DB.
multiple users are using this DB's frontend. I do not know why I am getting this error message as follows
Error 3218 Could not update; currently locked
can someone help me please......

Get everybody out of their mdb files. Someone might be trying to update the same record. It might even be you, in another instance active on your PC.

The elephant in the room here is that multiple users are using the same front end. This is generally the first step down the road of access pain that often leads to access getting tarred with the “Access is not fit for more than 5 users” brush.
First thing is to get every user to have their own copy of the front end on their local drive. You can use the excellent access auto FE updater to make rolling out a new version easy
www.autofeupdater.com

This is weird. I got this error message because there was no enough space in the Shared drive, I just removed 1GB of some unneccessary files from the shared drive and the application works fine now.
But, took some time to figure it out.

I have free Oracle Cloud always free instance. I was not able to connect to it by ssh and it looks like it was stopped.
I cannot re-run it. I get:
Unable to start instance: Instance ocid1.instance.oc1.eu-frankfurt-1.antheljscauatxycmb7qvp36l6jmfffvhfjqspjo6zz3xzbjletwexs7fvsa is disabled and will not accept any action requests. Please contact customer support to reenable.
Customer support doesn't work. Any idea what to do and why it was stopped ?
Is that an ampere A1 flex instance that was stopped? are you within the initial 30 days free trail or it got expired?
I discovered the same issue today with my always-free VM. This Redit post from a few months back is really helpful.
The solution is to create a backup of the boot volume, then terminate the stopped VM instance without deleting the associated boot volume, and finally create a new instance matching the specs of the original VM using the "Create Instance" option from the boot volume page.
The Redit post provides a nice, clear set of instructions. Worked perfectly for me.
As to the reason for Oracle disabling the instance in the first place, #Anupam's answer is very helpful, though I'm not sure where this info came from. I certainly didn't get a heads-up email like the one sent out when Oracle indicated they were going to pause my transaction database.

Last year I started to develop a small "program" (not sure how this is called) in Access to help the family shop with the stock list and product prices, etc.
A few months ago, a client of the company started to ask for my Access's program because he needed one for its stock and they haven't found one yet. I was a bit scared of giving them the program because they could copy and steal my work.
Finally, my family suggested me to encrypt it in order to not be able to open its code, but I don't know how to do it.
So my questions are:
Is there a way to block the access to my VBA code in each Form? Through MS Access config or with more code, for me, it's the same.
Is there a way to block the duplication of its Forms or the whole file?
How can I secure my code?
I'm using MS Access 2016.
Edit: I've already got 2 downvotes and close flags, if you could explain to me in comments which thing do you think it's wrong I could try to fix it.
Access 2016 allows you to save as .accde format which is in effect an executable file. It seems that is what you need
Heres's how
you can also hide most of the Access environment so users can't really tell its Access
like so
Saving as an executable file as SEarl1986 said may be your best bet. I am unsure what happens to their database if you need to update your code tho.
Another way is to open Visual Basic, go to Tools, and "yourfilenames" properties, then under the protection tab you can "lock the project for viewing" and add a password.
It isn't foolproof as their is a method to break the password by editing the file with a hex editing tool, but it's a good lock that will deter most people. It will protect your code from prying eyes.

when our website was infected,we always just change the root password and the mysql password,fix the code where have vulnerability。But I think it is not enough , does anyone have more advance on it? I just have no idea that whether he has the backdoor in our system or have other attack that I haven't know about。
The problem is, that after the system was once hacked, you cannot be 100% sure that the hacker did not leave you a backdoor, unless he left a log of what he did.
The best way would be complete reset the system. Re-install the OS and completely rebuild the server. However that might not always be an option.
I would advise you to
Rebuild the system
Check all code using sql in you app to use prepared statements
log the sql for some time and go through it, to see if the hacker tries again and make double sure you get the code he aims at
(original post spoke of injection - not infection)

Morning, we have 8 databases on our live server. I have created a new one on our test/development server. In MySQL Administrator I've backed up this new database to an SQL file, this file is on the new server. If I use "restore" in MySQL Administrator to create this database, will it affect the other databases that are there or will they carry on working as normal?
Is there a better way to do this?
The new DB is only a few k in size, the others contain many years of info and data and are huge. Any help appreciated
No, it won't. As you said that your DB is small it will not affect at all the other DB. It would if it was bigger, most probably it would slow dow your server a bit during the import (if it was bigger, huge to be precise), after the import the database will work normally. Of course it will share resource to keep one more instance working. And with time, it will make some difference in performance (depending on how big this DB grow). But you will have to be more concerned with hardware capabilities then the database itself.
Of course, I assume that when you say database you are saying about a new instance on your database.

I bought a 1and1.es (Spain) Starter hosting plan for a small project we are starting. It only allows one database. I never imagined that to enable phpMyAdmin Designer (the graphical tab where you set relations between tables) you'd need to create another database. Of course, when I try to, I get an "access denied" error.
So, assuming I can't use phpMyAdmin, I haven't been able to find the right term to look for an alternative MySQL manager that has some kind of graphical relation creator. I just converted the tables to InnoDB and I have Relation View, but a totally-unskilled team has to work with it so we need visuals.
PS: I just saw I can pay 1$/month and have another database, so I might consider it (it'w low price, but feels useless having a 1GB database just for a silly database. I don't get why phpMyAdmin needs another database just for that).
Thank you
Why do you imagine that the phpMyAdmin configuration storage needs a separate database?
According to http://docs.phpmyadmin.net/en/latest/setup.html#phpmyadmin-configuration-storage,
"you need to create a set of special tables. Those tables can be located in your own database,"...
