You have 2 options:

1) You can use the same code to install a fresh copy of database - just empty your connection string in connectionString.config file and run the install.aspx page

2) Delete the database from .\SQLEXPRESS instance or whatever instance you're using and delete the code > Download a fresh copy of nopCommerce and install it again.

Is it possible these settings are now in Nop.Web/App_Data/Settings.txt (I'm using version 2.60)?

This seems to happen when nopCommerce cannot find the Database as specified. Are you sure your connection string is correct?

You can find the connectionstring in
/AppData/Settings.txt

Maybe have a look in the GoDaddy documentation on what the connectionstring should look like?

Thank you loads, I have resolved this now. I just cleaned and rebuilt the solution again. And after deploying to my server with a new DB created, everything just worked like magic. Cheers for ur time.
