We have a client who is only accepting Paypal transactions, and we're wondering how to get around the SSL directory problems. The shared SSL "workarounds" in the Knowledge Base are not working (gave us MS ODBC errors about temp DSN), and it seems silly to get an SSL when they're not processing credit cards.
Any ideas?

You should always have an SSL cert when collecting customer informaton (address, emails, phone number, etc.) regardless if you are collecting credit card info or not.
At any rate, I think it would be easier to get the cart working with the shared SSL. How is your shared SSL setup? Do you upload to a different directory?

The shared SSL is using the same file directories, just using a different path name to get to them.
Since we've tried the shared SSL cart adjustments in article #5304 with no success, is there a different method?

Okay, you can try changing the SalesCart Product Link checkout page (under the checkout tab) to go directly to the secure website.
So, right now you have "../cgi-bin/shop1.asp" in the checkout path. You would change it to https://secure.mydomain.com/cgi-bin/shop1.asp and that should take care of the issue.

We tried that already... see above.
Again - if we use the shared SSL path in salescart.asa and the checkout path, we get an error:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005'
[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver]General error Unable to open registry key 'Temporary (volatile) Jet DSN for process 0x1c28 Thread 0x2e64 DBC 0x168100c Jet'.
/yoursite/cgi-bin/GetOrder.asp, line 30

If you made the change in salescart.asa, then you might have not followed what I suggested. Remember, you make the change in two place, one in the salescart.asa file and the other on the SalesCart Product Link.
The error that you're receiving this actually not related to the SSL at all!
