I have what was a running site and made a few changes to the CSS and refreshed the web.config file so they would take and now I am getting the above message.

Here is the path of what I did...
Copy user.cofig from local to server
Copied web.config from server to local

I went into the web.config and checked <add key="DisableSetup" value="true"/> I refreshed the web.config again... I even changed the Setup to false and it ran the setup again... but I got an error that MS SQL was not found... I am not using SQL... so I switched back again (true) and back to the above error again?

What did I do wrong?

OK... now I have really screwed up... I copied the Web.config from the server to my local machine and now it throws errors too...

Aaaggghhhh

Oh I am so stupid for NOT making copies first... bloody dummy!

Got any suggestions on how I can recover from this idiocy?

Hi Joe,

I am running the default DB...

Web.Config is set to false

The User.config and web.config files could be a wrong version... If I can get on the server to get to the system information where can I go to find out?  What file can I open to find the version?

Phill

Hi Joe,

Thanks for the pointers...

I looked at the server and I am unable to determine what version of .NET is running.  I have put in a ticket to find out.

I corrected the Connection string in the User.Config but it still doesn't work.

Joe D,

.NET Versions

The Server version of .NET is 4.0.30319.0

My laptop (local machine) is running 4.0.30319 (I just changed it from 2.0)

Now both systems are running at the same version of .NET

---------------------------

Okay I just had a brain storm... it only takes me 2 days to have it but I just asked the Admins at my hosting company if they can restore from backup the web.config & user.config from Wednesday the day BEFORE I screwed it all up!

Keeping my fingers crossed.

Phill

PS
if they can restore then I will do a complete reverse FTP (backup) of the site back to my machine and scratch the version I am running as it was only for testing anyway.  Then I will be inline with the public site.
