How to fix the "dbconn.open Exception" error

Sample Error

You may see a message like "dbconn.open Exception: [some path or folders]" is not a valid path. Make sure that the path name is spelled correctly and that you are connected to the server on which the file resides

Solution or Workaround

The above error can occur if you have made an error while editing the web.config file. The path you specified to your database (see the dbvirtualpath & dbphysicalpath keys) contain the wrong path or you have more than one path specified (if you added a key, you may not have commented or the old one).
