Arror trying to install 3.90

Hi,
I'd like to installa a brand new 3.90 compiled. I created an empty Db but wether or not I put a settings.txt with comnnec tion parameters in app_data or not, the following error arises:

The argument 'nameOrConnectionString' cannot be null, empty or contain only white space.

Any idea?

Thanks

Try restarting your IIS. :)

When you want empty DB then you don't need to add Setting.txt and Install plugin.txt

nopCommerce will create those files from code.

Can you please share your connection string. I would like to see

With or without settings.ttx, it's the same:


The argument 'nameOrConnectionString' cannot be null, empty or contain only white space.
  Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

Exception Details: System.ArgumentException: The argument 'nameOrConnectionString' cannot be null, empty or contain only white space.

Source Error:


The source code that generated this unhandled exception can only be shown when compiled in debug mode. To enable this, please follow one of the below steps, then request the URL:

1. Add a "Debug=true" directive at the top of the file that generated the error. Example:

   <%@ Page Language="C#" Debug="true" %>

or:

2) Add the following section to the configuration file of your application:

<configuration>
    <system.web>
        <compilation debug="true"/>
    </system.web>
</configuration>

Note that this second technique will cause all files within a given application to be compiled in debug mode. The first technique will cause only that particular file to be compiled in debug mode.

Important: Running applications in debug mode does incur a memory/performance overhead. You should make sure that an application has debugging disabled before deploying into production scenario.
