Hi!
I hope, that I am not stealing this tread. dcleslie: If you feel I am stealing just say so, and I will make my own tread:)
Anyway, I have the excact same problem.
I have setup the database/database_connection.asp and uploaded it with the rest of the files.
When I run the MSSQL_server_setup.asp, and enter the information I get the error-message, that dcleslie got in hes third post. (Error Connecting to database on SQL Server)
I have three suspicions as to what could be the problem:
1. In the database/database_connection.asp I have entered:
strSQLServerName = "localhost"
since that is what my ISP has told me to enter. Is localhost a valid value? Or should it be the name of my domaine?
2. I may be typing in the wrong information in the MSSQL_server_setup.asp-form. What is the difference between the SQL Server Username and SQL Server Username for creating tables?
3. The text says: Enter a username and password in the box below that has table creation/modification rights at the SQL Server database you are using. Will I have that kind of rights? From my ISP I have only recieved:
MySQL:
Host: localhost
Database: aaa
User: aaa
Password: *********
Thank you.
