Hi,

I am trying to make a back-up of my database and cannot because it is marked as read-only, I checked the permissions, and my local user is added, so I don't know what the problem is. I am able to make changes to the database through my DNN instance...I have been logging in with a host account...not sure if this makes any difference, but wanted to mention it in case. I am using SQL Server Express.

If anyone has any insight into this, I would appreciate your suggestions.

Thanks so much!
Jenny

Thanks for your reply. I went ahead and removed "UserInstance=True" from my web.config file and was able to back up the database. After doing so, I added it back to the web.config now, but now, when I try to run the website, I am taken to the Install page. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Jenny
