Hi,

ive been trying to install DNN on my web server. I am installing a v5.1.0 on a server 2003 OS and .Net 1.1

The virtual directory is created on the Web Server, and the Sql server 2008 is on another Server .

I have altered the Connection Strings in the web config file so that it can connect to the database that was created on the other server.

Data Source=Servername;Initial Catalog=DotNetNuke;uid=Domain\dotnetnuke;pwd=Password;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/>
And also
Data Source=Servername;Initial Catalog=DotNetNuke;uid=Domain\dotnetnuke;pwd=Password;">

But for some reason i am unable to make the connection to the database that resides on another server than the web server.

The error that i intially got was that Login Failed, and that Microsoft Authentication doesnt work (i dont have the exact error)

i have followed the guide on this website http://www.bestwebsites.co.nz/dotnetnuke/easy-dotnetnuke-installation-guide/

i realise that they are using Express Sql , but i did work around that, but am still facing issues during installation for the Configure Database Connection Part.

please note, that DNN 4 and 5 require ASP.Net 2.0

DNN 5.2 will require ASP.Net 3.5 SP1

Okay,

im sorry i just talked to my admin, and he notified me that we do have Asp2.0, i was thinking about another test server that had 1.1 I got my information wrong on that.

But i am still getting this issue, which is saying that Mirosoft authentication has failed, and login failed.

i am just wondering whether, if i have to provide the full location of the server with the databse. I can ping from server to server. But in some cases i use the format ServerName.Domain.local (eg in Setting up Office Communicator)

please post the exact error message, whether it is from the web server or sql server.

Make sure, not to use impersonation in IIS web site configuration.
