I’m running YAF 1.9.3 on a Windows 2000 server with SQL on the same box.

I was able to setup YAF on my test machine OK, but I am having problems in release. When I browse to the forum, I just get a blank screen and it all hangs. I suspect the SQL connection string. I’ve tried adding a trace statement and customerrors in the web.config, but don’t get any output.

From an XP machine with VS2008, when I use the connection string:



I get:

“Startup Error: Unable to connect to the Database. Exception Message: Cannot open database requested in login 'forum'. Login fails. Login failed for user 'myuser'. (4060)”

When I use:



I get:

“Startup Error: Unable to connect to the Database. Exception Message: Login failed for user 'WEBSERVER\ME'. (18456)”

All help appreciated.
