    SOVLED - V8 A connection string is configured but Umbraco could not connect to the database.

    I created a demo page yesterday, and uploaded it to smarterasp.net today, and the site that works in localhost gets the following error when live;

    enter image description here

    Anyone got any tips on how to fix this?

    Hi Bianca

    This usually pertains to the connection string in the sites web.config cannot connect to the Umbraco database.

    I would first check that the connections string is pointing to the correct DB and has the correct username and password to connect.

    If you look in the log files it should give you more information about the problem, this is usually in your App_Data folder

    I was able to fix the problem by re-uploading it, but thanks for the tips!
