Installing DotNetNuke
Upgrade Error: ERROR: Could not connect to database specified in connectionString for SqlDataProvider

I have a SQL Server 2005 database set up. I have posted this question on the DNN forum but I haven't found any answerse. Any help would be much appreciated.

Here are myweb.config settings


<connectionStrings>
<!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2005 -->
</o>
<add
name="SiteSqlServer"
connectionString="Server=sql2k512.discountasp.net;Database=SQL2005_463135_ffelogistix;
uid=SQL2005_463135_ffelogistix_user;pwd=******;"
providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
</connectionStrings>
</o>
<appSettings>
<add key="SiteSqlServer" value="Server=sql2k512.discountasp.net;Database=SQL2005_463135_ffelogistix;uid=SQL2005_463135_ffelogistix_user;pwd=******;"/>

<add key="InstallTemplate" value="DotNetNuke.install.config" />
<add key="AutoUpgrade" value="false" />
<add key="UseInstallWizard" value="false"/>
<add key="InstallMemberRole" value="true" />
<add key="ShowMissingKeys" value="false" />
<add key="EnableWebFarmSupport" value="false" />
<add key="EnableCachePersistence" value="false"/>
<add key="HostHeader" value="" />

Thanks!

I am assuming the '******' in your connection string is replaced by your password? Something seems to be wrong in your connection string.

I'm just as happy it worked as you are.
All the best,

I am having the same problem. I changed the connection string. Does the AppSetting also need to change?


<connectionStrings>
<add
name="SiteSqlServer"
connectionString="Data Source=tcp:mssql6.networkenhanced.com;Initial Catalog=jimwhi1_DNNBev; User ID=jimwhi1_jimwhite;Password=****;"
providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
</connectionStrings>
<appSettings>
<!-- Connection String for SQL Server 2000/2005 - kept for backwards compatability - legacy modules -->
<add key="SiteSqlServer" value="Server=mssql6.networkenhanced.com;Database=jimwhi1_DNNBev;uid=jimwhi1_jimwhite;pwd=****;"/>

 

Does seem that connection sting should be like this instead:
