  • I used the ASP.NET Configuration wizard to set up a web user.
  • I then denied access to anonymous users on a folder.

  • This works locally.

  • However, when I upload my webiste to my hosting provider, when checking the login it says that it can’t ‘access the SQL Server 2005’.

  • I notice that the wizard created the database files:

    App_Data/ASPNETDB.MDF
    App_Data/aspnetdb_log.ldf

  • So I assume the rights are not correct on the website access these files.

  • In my FileZilla FTP client, I changed the App_Data directory and all files in it to 777 but it still gets the ‘can’t access’ error.

Has anyone had the problem before?

A N S W E R: Thank you Pradeep, I contacted my provider, he said to use the online file manager to set the rights, which worked.

  1. Check with your hosting provider. make sure they have support for sql database drivers. Also ask them about the permission on App_Data folder. One way to check this is – try creating one page which gets data from database and doesn’t require authentication. If it works there shouldn’t be any problem with database drivers and it has to be a permission issue. Hope this helps.
