Configuration :: Uploading Site With SQL Database To Commercial Hosting Server?
May 11, 2010
This will be my first time trying to upload a ASP.NET site. I would like to upload my site by simply using ftp and transferring the contents of the project directory so that the site will be easy for me to make future updates. Where can I find directions for uploading a ASP.NET site via ftp? I am assuming that I will need to edit the connection string in the web.config file. However, my hosting company told me to just make a full backup of of the database into .BAK file format and upload it via FTP to your the "private" folder. Anyone have any experience with something like this and can tell me how this would affect the connection string? Can I back up the database to a .BAK file from within Visual Studio 2008 or do I have to use Management Studio? I am using Visual Studio 2008 with ASP.NET 3.5, C#, and SQL Server 2008 Express Edition.
i have uploaded my site on hosting server with name www.selectionfurnishing.combut when i try to open any page i got an error that the site does not exits when i try www.selectionfurnishing.com/default.aspx then it gives error that the page does not exits (404)
I am trying to host a site on my local system and also tried it on my university server but am finding a great difficulty hosting the site. The site is made in ASP.NET C# and also have silverlight application in it. I am not able to configure or wither host the site on the server. I am having IIS 7 and Windows 7 as the OS. I have enabled IIS 7 on it. (I am using the SQL Server 2005 Express Edition and have almost no knowledge on hosting on IIS 7)
I am building a web application that is used to access and report to and from a database in a small compnay. The company has there own server for their network and design software. What I want to do is use this netwrok to host the website I have built. What im wanting to know is will this be secure? Can use the comapnys server to host the site, and in a sense not put the website online so that just the computers on the server can access the website? Will this be secure?

I'm creating a website and I'm testing resgistering and Log-in.
I followed a simple tutorial to create a Log-in in Visual Studio C# template which generated a SQL Server database.Locally the Log-in and registration page works perfectly. The problem is that when I upload my site to the hosting site the navigation works but the Log-in and Registration forms send an error when clicked "Register" or "Log-in". I contacted the site and they upload my database the way it should be because I was doing it wrong. I can see all my files including the data base.
They commented me that I had to do a connection string to the data base so the login and registration forms can work. I don't understand how to do that, I know the connection string has to be declared in the Web Config File, the thing is that I don't know how to write that code and link it to my data base in the hosting site, in fact I have sample code but I don't know just what do I need to put in it.
i have database that is stored on local.user should also be able to upload the database to online server . i am able to save it on local .But it is not saving on server.It shows request time out. Is it due to server not allowing external access.
I want to publish an asp.net 4.0 project to a hosting site. I uploaded the three SiteMaster files and the three default files. It has an error on the first line of the SiteMaster.aspx. The error message was "Could not load type 'PorjectName.SiteMaster'." What files should I upload?
i'm doing a website for a school and after uploading the site i get this error when typing in the web address: "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. Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a tag within a "web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application. This tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to "Off". "
the problem i have is the hosting company are saying it's not them and their IIS server is supporting .net 2.0 and it must be my code. i have even tried creating a brand new site and uploading that and I still get the same error. Because it's a school website i have to use the local government's hosting company so can't go anywhere else to host it. my question is is there any way i can create a website in .net 1.1 in vs? that way i can try to upload that site and see if it's displayed; at least if it does I can go back to the hosting company and tell them it's their server.
I get another error message regarding SQL database.In my project, the database for membership and roles is under App_Data, plus another DB data i created. both DBs are .mdf"A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)"I have my web hosting from GoDaddy, do i need to configure anything there? or is it something to do with my web application?This is my connection string in web.config:
I am working at a site not orginally devleoped by me. The problem is that all the pages are working fine and have no problem at my local site. but the site is not showing any content at live site from database. Niether it shows an error for it. How can I find the problem?
I hope, the post is posted where it should be posted.I want to host my website on my IIS webserver so that I can access it on Internet. Could someone provide links for it.
I was trying to upload the database of my ASP.NET website. On the local machine, if I copy the database from another machine, I have to attach it through SQL Server Management Studio and then use it in the connection string like
[Code]....
My database is approx. 10 MB in size for now. If I upload it via ftp to App_Data folder, how would I have to attach this database?In Plesk, I have the option to create the database and its user (as shown in the screenshots):1) Web Applications and services-Plesk2) Add New Databaseand add new database user3) Webadmin>ASP.ET Enterprise ManagerBut this is for the new database I created. My problem is to upload an existing one.There's also a section in Plesk for ASP.NET settings (as shown below)
This has the option to change the connection string etc.I also asked my hosting provider about the method to be followed for attaching the database that I would upload. This was the reply in quote." mdf ldf files perhaps will be working at your local computer but this way database of mssql will not work on web server as on web server you will be required to create and restore your database backup file using plesk control panel.
Sample connection string for asp.net mssql `Standard Security`: "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=Your_Server_Name;Initial Catalog=Your_Database_Name;UserId=Your_Username;Password=Your_Password;"
Server name to be used in coding: localhost Catalog/ database name , database user and database password you will be required to create your own using plesk control panelI would be really be appreciative for the steps I have to take to upload my existing database. How do I have attach it? What connection string I have to use?
how I can correct an error. I've built the MVCMusicStore tutorial here:
http://mike-ciccone.com/Store/
The first time I visit the site and attempt a database connection I get this error:
Exception Details: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: CREATE DATABASE permission denied in database 'master'.
But when I refresh, it all works fine. I'm at a bit of a loss. I don't believe I'm attempting to create a database, but I realise that the error may not really have anything to do with that. This is hosted at GoDaddy shared hosting. The database was created and I used an SQL script to create the tables initially and populate the data. My connection string works as I can pull data from the database, but I do have a feeling it will be a web.config setting that will correct this.
