im not sure but you might need to make the server "http://localhost/" You could also try setting the server as your ip address such as 192.168.1.2, or use the Local one which is 127.0.0.1 ------------- S2H.co.uk - http://www.s2h.co.uk/wwf/" rel="nofollow - WebWiz Mods and Skins For support on my mods + skins, please use http://www.s2h.co.uk/forum/" rel="nofollow - my forum . |

Did you install SQL Server in mixed mode? For ASP to be able to connect to an SQL Server database, SQL Server has to be instaleld in mixed mode with TCP/IP connections enabled. ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |
