Hi forum,

What I have done so far :

*Installed DNN 5.1 on local machine and modified with skins and navigatoin modules.Newly created and modified working fine in local.

*Created Portal http aliases "scrapbooksupplydirect.com" and "www.scrapbooksupplydirect.com "

*Changed the webconfig file's connection strings.What i have changed is as follows---

<connectionStrings>

<!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2005 Express

<add name="SiteSqlServer" connectionString="Data Source=.\SQLExpress;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|Database.mdf;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />-->

<!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2000/2005-->

<add name="SiteSqlServer" connectionString="Server=75.50.25.63;Database=Scrap1;uid=scrap1u;pwd=abcde;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />

 

</connectionStrings>

<appSettings>

<!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2005 Express - kept for backwards compatability - legacy modules

<add key="SiteSqlServer" value="Data Source=.\SQLExpress;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|Database.mdf;" />-->

<!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2000/2005 - kept for backwards compatability - legacy modules-->

<add key="SiteSqlServer" value="Server=75.50.25.63;Database=Scrap1;uid=scrap1u;pwd=abcde;"/>

 

<add key="InstallTemplate" value="DotNetNuke.install.config" />

<add key="AutoUpgrade" value="false" />

<add key="UseInstallWizard" value="false" />

 

*Copied all files under localhost/dotnetnuke folder and upload via FTP to the root folder( httpdocs/ ) [no sub folder or virtual directoy) of my hosting account.

*My Hosting company provided the follwing privilleges for the root directory "httpdocs"-------

 Permissions for "plesk IIS WP USER (IWPD_51(scrap36)) :

read control -> Checked

Execute control ->Cheaked

Traverse Folder/Execute file -> Cheked

List Folder / Read Data -> Checked

 *Modified Asp.net with 2.0,preferrences with wirte and execute permissions and default.aspx as the first default.
 

But when i use to browse my production site "scrapbooksupplydirect.com", I am getting the following error---->

This site is currently Unavailable
Please check back later 

Friends I need your help now and I am struggling about 4 days with hosting itself.

Regards

Riaz

I'm confused, you have four connection strings enabled when you should only be using two? Have you commented out the last two connection strings?

I doubt you should be using integrated security on the first connection string...

I would review the original web.config again, and contact your hosting provider again.

Oh and I hope the username/password isn't your real username password you've published here :).

Thank you for your reply,

<connectionStrings>
<!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2005 Express
<add name="SiteSqlServer" connectionString="Data Source=.\SQLExpress;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|Database.mdf;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
-->

<!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2000/2005-->
<add name="SiteSqlServer" connectionString="Server=75.50.25.63;Database=Scrap1;uid=scrap1u;pwd=123456;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />

</connectionStrings>
<appSettings>
<!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2005 Express - kept for backwards compatability - legacy modules
<add key="SiteSqlServer" value="Data Source=.\SQLExpress;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|Database.mdf;" />
-->

<!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2000/2005 - kept for backwards compatability - legacy modules-->
<add key="SiteSqlServer" value="Server=75.50.25.63;Database=Scrap1;uid=scrap1u;pwd=123456;"/>

<add key="InstallTemplate" value="DotNetNuke.install.config" />
<add key="AutoUpgrade" value="false" />
<add key="UseInstallWizard" value="false" />
 

Is the above connection string is correct?

Yes,the password is dummy one here.

Hi Sanju,

Sure I can explain you the steps above but that queries are all regarding when I was stuck.

Whats your problem?

where are you now?

who is your hosting provider?

which version plesk control panel they have?

Will they give you permission to modify and access your root folder "httpdocs"?

Have you follwed "MitchellSellers" tutorials regarding remote hosting?

Regards

Riaz
