Hi, I am new in a website developing. I am trying to incorporate jitbit forum to my website. Currently, our website is hosted by a third party.

So I am following the readme to put forum folder inside my website. Appdata, appglobal resources and bin not in the same folder with the forum.

when I am navigating to mywebsite.com/forum/default.aspx error code 404 appear. i cannot open any webpage that was supplied by jitbit forum. However, when i copy my own webpage to 'forum' folder, i can open that page. Is this caused by the database for the forum not being set up properly?

What do i have to do to get the database being set up on my website apart from copying app_data to my website?

I am using .net 2

PS: when run jitbit webpage locally, everything is fine. Then, i copied the jitbit page to my website that was hosted by third party and I am unable to open that page.

Could you please advise?

Thanks
Jeff

No, the 404-page does not have to do anything with the database setup, it means that the website is not properly configured and is unable to find "default.aspx". You sure that asp.net 2.0 is installed on yor server?

I think I have the same issue with: http://www.jitbit.com/forum/topic532-problem-with-webconfig-file.aspx

I am using MsSQL database.. is below connection string (on forum's webconfig, not on website's webconfig) configured correctly?

<add name="AspNetForumConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=xxxxx,1750; Initial Catalog=xxxxx; ID=xxxx; Password=xxxx;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/>

ensure you have asp.net 2.0 properly installed. Run this command:
"C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\aspnet_regiis.exe -i"
