 I really need some help with this problem, if some oneknows the solution, please let me know.

I am trying to get data in my DNN module from another database, not the dnn default database. For doing that I have altered my web.config file to include the new data name in the <data> element of the web.config file. Here is what it looks like:

add name="MyDataProvider"
type="DotNetNuke.Data.SqlDataProvider, DotNetNuke.SqlDataProvider"
connectionStringName="MySqlServer"
upgradeConnectionString=""
providerPath="~\Providers\DataProviders\SqlDataProvider\"
objectQualifier=""
databaseOwner="dbo"/>

<

This is exactly as the default data provider except that I have added the new name "MyDataProvider" in the name attribute. This runs fine in dnn framework ver 4.09.00. But, in ver 5.0.0, I get the error:

Server Application Unavailable

The web application you are attempting to access on this web server is currently unavailable.  Please hit the "Refresh" button in your web browser to retry your request.
Administrator Note: An error message detailing the cause of this specific request failure can be found in the application event log of the web server. Please review this log entry to discover what caused this error to occur.

If I remove this element from the web.confg file, it works fine. But on adding this element in the data element of the webconfig file, the dnn page does not load. If any one has come across this, please help!

This is probably not the solution, but I'd test this on 5.0.1.

Click Start|Contro lPanel|Administrative Tools then Event Viewer and select the Application node.

What is the error being logged?

I will need to send you the exact error message later, because this was some one else in my group who was having the problem, but the error message was about aspnet process erroring out. I will send you the exact message later.

Thanks.
