How to configure my web.config before publishing my web site?

Question

I have published my website to my domain name from Visual Studio...

For that I have modified my Web.Config file like this:

<configuration>
<connectionStrings>
<add name="ApplicationServices" connectionString="Data Source=mssql001.hosting.combell.com;Initial Catalog=aspnetdb;User Id=MyUserId;Password=MyPassword" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
<add name="TennisOnlineContext" connectionString="Data Source=|DataDirectory|Tennis.sdf" providerName="System.Data.SqlServerCe.4.0 " />

When I'm trying to navigate it in my Web Browser I get the following error:

Cannot open database "aspnetdb" requested by the login. The login failed. Login failed for user 'MyUserId'.

I'm using "Combell" business that supports SQL Server 2008... I have contacted the support online and the username and password seem corrects ;)

Can you tell me what is wrong with my connection string please ? Thanks in advance

Answer 1

Not sure, but are remote connections allowed in your SQL Server instance?

Combell会将数据库名称设置为与用户名相同的值。
