This is my settings.txt from the old server. It works and even works from the new server: DataProvider: sqlserver DataConnectionString: Data Source=kennydiscustest.db.8675055.hostedresource.com;Initial Catalog=kennydiscustest;Integrated Security=False;Persist Security Info=False;User ID=kennydiscus****;Password=discuS****!;MultipleActiveResultSets=True
This is the settings.txt with the new database info. It doesn't work: DataProvider: sqlserver DataConnectionString: Data Source=kennysdatabase.db.8241606.hostedresource.com;Initial Catalog=kennysdatabase;Integrated Security=False;Persist Security Info=False;User ID=kennysdatabase****;Password=discuS****;MultipleActiveResultSets=True
First of all, please be careful not to paste database logins on the web, your username and password for both test and production database are clearly visible in the above post.
Can you access the production database from something like SQL server Management Studio? Maybe you have got the wrong connection info.
Can you access the production database from your test installation of Nop?
An issue could be, that access to your production database is ip restricted - you should verify that with your hosting provider.
Just ran mssql_test.aspx and it came back open. The connection string I am changing is in the app_data>settings.txt file. What other file contains connection data?
