I updated to the latest release of the Help module and it was working great on my development server.  However when I tried to use it on my hosting site i get the an error message (see below)  I have gone back and corrected my web.config file for the database but it didnt seem to help - still getting the error.

Can anyone point me in the right direction for a fix?

Thanks

Be sure that both connection strings are correct in your hosted server.

One is in the ConnectionStrings section, the other is in AppSettings

Thanks for the info.  I had overlooked the the AppSettings line and updated it but seem to still have a problem.  Is there something I need to reset/refresh in either the database or DNN to finish clearing the problem?

When back and looked again - found my error - that did it.  Thanks again.
