I am trying to put some login controls onto a webpage. I just removed the SQL express 2005 server stuff from my development computer at home and am working on the SQL2008/VS2008/ASP.net3.5 at my clients site.
I updated the database with regsql_update.exe or whatever the command line program is called it created my aspnet database and I can see it in explorer inside vs all the tables are there. But when I try to tell IIS about the new connection string I still cannot get into the database from the asp.net website administration tool.
I read in another post to go here and update the connection string
