Hi,

I would like to move my working DNN application to a free hosting environment. Unfortunately it does not support Auto Attach databases (for example from the App_Data folder). According to their documentation i should have a connection string like this:

Data Source=.\HOSTING;Initial Catalog=DotNetNuke; Persist Security Info=True;User ID=UserDNN;Password=*****

So I changed the connection strings as above, created the DNN database, a DB user, and assigned it to the DB, but DNN is not running.

Any idea how i should change the connection string to make it working without the auto-attachment support?

Thanks a lot!

W.

You should be close.

You might want to check with the hosting provider for the standard but you should be able to use

Server=yourserver;database=yourdatabase;uid=youruser;pwd=yourpassword
