hi was wondering if anyone could help me. i have just moved hosting server old server had mssql 2005 new server has mssql 2008 Dont know if this may be the problem
Every time i try to launch my website i recieve the following error
Server Error in '/' Application. Runtime Error Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine.
Try if you can connect from a browser on the server. Even if you cannot, view the error messages as suggested in the current error description. Are you able to connect to the new server from SSMS?
am able to connect to the database in mssql 2008 on the server. but cannot seem to get the website to load in my browser. I am not sure if this could be because of new server is running mssql 2008 and the site used to work on old server mssql 2005
</appSettings> <system.web> <!-- DYNAMIC DEBUG COMPILATION Set compilation debug="true" to insert debugging symbols (.pdb information) into the compiled page. Because this creates a larger file that executes more slowly, you should set this value to true only when debugging and to false at all other times. For more information, refer to the documentation about debugging ASP.NET files.
Hi James thanks for your help yes remote connections are enabled. and i am able to log into the database from my pc via ms sql manage just seems to fail when in browser
Are you able to run it through debugger or deploy a debug build to see what the error message is? And, while it may seem obvious, check each value in your connection string to make sure that there are no typos etc. Other than those, I am not able to suggest anything without seeing the error messages.
