Hi,

I'm new to dotnetnuke and I have built a site for my family (on my local machine) and I am trying to move it to a production web server.  I have copied everything to the server, created the database, added new portal aliases, etc. and when I browse to the site (on the server in IIS) it looks for it at "localhost" and fails.

How can I correct this so that it looks for it at the actual domain?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Mark

You may need to revisit the connection string to the DB on the new server. It most certainly would not be the same as the local machine.

I changed that to point to the new database when I copied everything out.  So that's correct.

The portal aliases I added (which were 2) were:

www.domain-name.com and domain-name.com

Are these correct - do I need both or not?  The localhost alias is still there, but I can't figure out how to remove it.  Does it matter that it's still there?

Thanks,

Mark
