Hi all,

I urgently need some help with this, please!

I cannot login in my DNN 4.5.x website after having copied the DB to another hosting environment. Not one DNN login works! The problem is I don't have any control over the RESTORE db process on the new host, whereas on my own host there's no problem in updating the DB after having developed locally (which speeds up the process a lot) and all DNN logins works as expected.

What can be the problem? Does the SQL login requirethe role db_owner maybe? What do I tell the hosting support to do?

Many, many TIA, Pieter

What error do you get? Usually login problems like this are because the Machinekey lines in web.config have not been copied across. You should make sure, if you have copied your db, that they are the same as on your old hosting environment. Also has your SQL connect string been correctly changed in web.config.

Cheers
Roger

I don't get any error... the page just stays in guest mode.

Anyways, we've given up on the host, it's bad service at www.enom.com.
