Hi,

i have spent 3 weeks designing a new website on my local machine. Yesterday i connected to the database using
Enterpice manager. I performed a database backup. Thats it!! Now i can´t view the site anymore? I just end up
in the install wizard? I have not edit the config file at all?
I tried to set the AutoUpgrade" value to false but then i only get "This site is currently Unavailable".

Please! What the he** is wrong here?
Regards Mikael

Mikael,

if you use the file based connection string (check out in web.config, the uncommented strings must have "database.mdf" in it), you cannot attach the database the same time to the SQL Server. Open SSMS and detach the database OR create an account with dbp permission and use the "classic" connection string, to be able to enter the database with SSMS while the web is running.

Sebastian,
i have deattached the database from Enterprise manager. And i have changed
winconfig as you can see below:

<add name="SiteSqlServer" connectionString="Server=(local);Database=Database.mdf;UID=;PWD=;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
<add key="SiteSqlServer" value="Server=(local);Database=Database.mdf;UID=;PWD=;" />

But still i get to the installation wizard...the connection is not working for me...

it all started when i connected to the database thru Enterprice Manager...
What can i do?
Regards mikael

Micke,

change either or, not both!

if you want to use your database within ssms and web site the same time, attach it to the sql server in SSMs and grant permission to an SQL Server account being granted dbowner permission for the database.

alter connection strings in web.config like "Server=(local);Database=mydbname;UID=myuser;pwd=mypassword"

with proper values for mydbname (name given in SSMS), myuser and mypassword

HTH
