Could somebody please help me to set up Version 04.08.00 on a remote server?
I am completely new to donnetnuke and asp.net, I would really like to start learning more but I can´t even get it up and working.
I would be really grateful if somebody could answer these questions.
I am using IX web hosting and have full permissions and asp.net 2 installed.
1.I can choose between MySQL Server and MSSQL Server which should I use?
2. I can´t figure out the web config file because all the tutorials I have found are different from the web config file I have and there is no release file.
3.the connection string in my web config file is:
</configSections>
<connectionStrings>
<!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2005 Express -->
<add name="SiteSqlServer" connectionString="Data Source=.\SQLExpress;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|Database.mdf;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
<!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2000/2005
<add
name="SiteSqlServer"
connectionString="Server=(local);Database=DotNetNuke;uid=;pwd=;"
providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
-->
</connectionStrings>
<appSettings>
<!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2005 Express - kept for backwards compatability - legacy modules -->
<add key="SiteSqlServer" value="Data Source=.\SQLExpress;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|Database.mdf;" />
<!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2000/2005 - kept for backwards compatability - legacy modules
<add key="SiteSqlServer" value="Server=(local);Database=DotNetNuke;uid=;pwd=;"/>
-->
4. The database information I have is:
Host Name: mysql401.ixwebhosting.com (98.130.0.68)
Port number: 3306
Database name: DotNetNukeAcademia
Database user: wakefie_mark
Password: XXXXXXXXXX
Please could you tell me if this is all the information I need and where I should put it.
I have successfully uploaded all the files in the DotNetNuke Version 04.08.00 install file and when I point my browser at my url I get DotNetNuke Installation Wizard But when I click on next I get the following message:
Upgrade Error: ERROR: Could not connect to database specified in connectionString for SqlDataProvider
