Hello.

I have working site on a server (Windows Server 2003).

The Database it a MDF file in a folder  APP_DATA (Like the default installation).

I was copying all the folder from one server to another server, with a control panel to use a domain instead of a static IP.

The problem now is that Iget this error:

Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

Exception Details: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Failed to generate a user instance of SQL Server due to failure in retrieving the user's local application data path. Please make sure the user has a local user profile on the computer. The connection will be closed.

Source Error:

Your SQL Express was using a user instance and the new server isn't configured for this.  You need to configure SQL on the new server and edit the connection string in the web.config to match the new server's SQL setup.
