Blonde ? You blond too??  Ok - I actually edited it, but normally as moderators we quickly check the connection strings to make sure they are commented out and we also do this because people sometimes forget, but it has been removed and it was done as soon as I saw that post.. Thanks to you guys for watching out for this too. It's much appreciated.

I would suggest uncommenting the appropriate legacy connection string and setting the values in the string.

I was having the same problem and that seemed to solve it for me... It's easy to miss both connection strings.  For future reference, if you're running SQL Server 2000 these are the only connection strings in the webconfig that shouldn't be commented:

<connectionStrings>

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

<add name="SiteSqlServer" connectionString="Server=YourServer;Database=DotNetNuke;uid=YourUID;pwd=YourPWD;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />

</connectionStrings>

<appSettings>

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

<add key="SiteSqlServer" value="Server=YourServer;Database=DotNetNuke;uid=YourUID;pwd=YourPWD;"/>

Note:  You'll want to keep the rest of the keys in appsettings, just make sure the SqlExpress connection string is commented out and the 2000/2005 is enabled with the pertinent information in the values tag.
