Firebird, IIS7 fresh install issue

Hello,

I'm doing my first mojoPortal install and running into an issue.

I'm trying to get it running on an Windows 7 (IIS7) box with Firebird 2.5. I've created the database, the firebird user and have set up the site in IIS.

What I'm running into now is when I connect to the setup/Default.aspx, it says the following:

Probing system...
File system permissions ok.

The system cannot connect to the MSSQL database. Please check your connection string.

I've made modifications to the sample FirebirdConnectionString in both the User.config and the web.config in the wwwroot folder. However, it always tries to connect using MSSQL.

If anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated!

Re: Firebird, IIS7 fresh install issue

Hi,

We have packages on the download page specifically for Firebird, it is not just a matter of connection string changes there are different dlls. You are using the package for MS SQL, it won't work with anything but MS SQL, you need to use the Firebird package of mojoPortal.

Hope that helps,

Joe
