the connection string is
<connectionStrings>
<add name="companyConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=D:\XCopyDeplo y\App_Data\company.mdf;Integrated Security=SSPI;Connect Timeout=30;User Instance=True"
providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
</connectionStrings>
the strange thing is!.when i put the port number in the path.it worked fine
(
http://localhost:1324/XCopyDeploy/vaccation.aspx) but without 1324 it didnt work.
the question is i should deploy the project on web server (windows server 2003) using same tools
should i do same thing ????because it's internal website and everyone in the company should see it.
