I've used the same password and user id to logging via visual studio 2005 with success. I also used the same credentials and osql into the database with success. If the userid/pwd was not successfull, I would not be able to get pass the first two pages of the dotnetnuke setup process. When I get to the 'Configure Database Connection' and tried testing the connection, I get Connection Error(s): Index #: 0 Source: .Net SqlClient Data Provider Class: 14 Number: 18456 Message: Login failed for user 'SQL2005_*****_*****_user'. As I mentioned before, I used the same password to logging remotely. I tried changing the password and updated my webconfig but to no avail. Here's an excerpt from the web config In the connection element <add name='SiteSqlServer' connectionString='Data Source=sql2k5**.discountasp.net;Initial Catalog=SQL2005_*****_*****;User ID=SQL2005_****_****_user;Password=*****;' providerName='System.Data.SqlClient' /> In the appsettings element <add key='SiteSqlServer' value='Server=sql2k5**.discountasp.net;Database=SQL2005_*****_*****;uid=SQL2005_****_****_user;pwd=*****;'/> Post Edited (PaulM) : 7/18/2007 9:18:05 PM GMT
The only cause i could think of is an incorrect password.You web.config looks fine.Just reconfirm you password and make sure you are making any typo's. Vikram DiscountASP.NET www.DiscountASP.NET
