I am getting an error - "no links" - immediatley after install.

I am running IIS 6.0 and SQL Server 2005 Express.

I have seen previous post telling me to check the two connection strings - I have tried MANY variations on the second string - FOR 4 hours - I need help !!!

Here is a non-exhaustive list of some of the combos I have tried:

<

add key="SiteSqlServer1" value="Data Source=myserver\SQLEXPRESS;Database=DotNetNuke;uid=gray;pwd=x;" />add key="SiteSqlServer2" value="Server=192.168.x.x;Data Source=myserver\SQLEXPRESS;Database=DotNetNuke;uid=gray;pwd=x;" />add key="SiteSqlServer3" value="Server=myserver\SQLEXPRESS;Data Source=myserver\SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=DotNetNuke;uid=gray;pwd=x;" />add key="SiteSqlServer4" value="Data Source=myserver\SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=DotNetNuke;User ID=gray;Password=x"/>add key="SiteSqlServer" value="Provider=SQLNCLI.1;Persist Security Info=False;User ID=gray;Initial Catalog=DotNetNuke;Data Source=myserver\SQLEXPRESS;Use Procedure for Prepare=1;Auto Translate=True;Packet Size=4096;Workstation ID=GRAY;Use Encryption for Data=False;Tag with column collation when possible=False;MARS Connection=False;DataTypeCompatibility=0;Trust Server Certificate=False"/>

The connection string in the appSettings section should have the SAME value as the one within your connectionStrings section.  Also, the "Key" for it should be SiteSqlServer
