Question

The page in my application where database access is performed, I am getting an error which says

CREATE DATABASE permission denied in database ‘master’.

Following is the url : http://price-tag.org/Store/Section/Computers.

I have created the database on hosting provider database server and following is my connectionstring

<add name="PriceCompareEntity" connectionString="Data 
   Source=rdinvent.db.8750445.hostedresource.com; Initial Catalog=rdinvent; User  
   ID=myDatabase; Password=myPassword;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />

What can be the reason for this error? Also, why is it trying to recreate the database when I have already done that and there is no initialization for new database defined in Global.asax

Im assuming you are using EF CodeFirst? The reason this is happening is because you havent correctly passed the connection string settings into the CodeFirst Context object. This means its trying to create the ContextDB using the full name/namespace of the context.
