To migrate your hosting account: Log into the Control Panel. Click on the Account Info/Edit link on the menu to your left. Next to Server Type, click on the Upgrade link to begin the migration. The process is automated. To migrate your database, follow the guidelines in this forum post: http://community.discountasp.net/showthread.php?t=6512 The process is the same.
Thank you for quick response.Question i have: -It says migrating to Windows 2012,IIS 8.Locally i have VS 2012 web express and IIS express and SQL server 2012 express.So when i move my application from local to production,will there be an issue because my development platform is not the same as production.
What version of IIS Express do you have? If it's IIS8, it should be fine. You should note that the .NET 4.0 Framework is fully supported on our Windows 2008/IIS7 servers, and the .NET 4.5 Framework is fully supported on our Windows 2012/IIS8 servers. Some assemblies in the .NET 4.0 Framework may not work in .NET 4.5.
