Database location

Can anyone tell me where the database files are stored? I cant find them anywhere on my computer but the connectionstring shows the connection is local

How did you install it?  nopCommerce supports SQL Server, SQL Express, and Compact.  Show us what's in your /App_Data/Settings.txt (without your pwd ;), if you are still having problems.

There isnt anything in my App_Data folder

Hi,

In this article you will find out detail information how to install nopCommerce.

You should have Settings.txt file in the App_Data folder.

When i ran the application for the first time, i was sent to the installation pages. I followed those steps and it said it was successful

Not only that but I redid the application following the steps and I dont see the database in my App_Data folder nor do I see a settings.txt file in the same location or in the directory of the solution.

Hello

I am having the same problem. Im trying to use a different computer to continue working on the website before I launch it and the database is stored in datasettings.json

{
  "DataConnectionString": "Data Source=localhost\\SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=Ava;Integrated Security=True;Persist Security Info=False",
  "DataProvider": "sqlserver",
  "RawDataSettings": {}
}

This says that your current database is stored on local sql server instance. What exact problem you're facing?

I'm unsure where the database has been installed to. What would the typical directory look like? Would I find it in C:\Users/App_Data or another location?
