​I'm trying to migrate a website to a client's server.

Thing is this is my first time doing this proccess and I still havent been able to do it.

I have uploaded de database - sql server 2012- and all the website files. All of this working perfectly in preproduction. I've changed the connection string on the web.config file and I 'm sure the info on both connection strings is correct. As far as I know this is all I needed to do for the migration to work under normal circumstances but It's not.


I've been looking for information on this for the last 24 hours, I've tried deleting and uploading everything again, I've deleted and created the users on the database because I read that could be an issue and now I'm running out of ideas.


Any help would be more than welcome.

Enrique,

You will need to add an entry to the PortalAlias table that maps the portalId to the domain. You also need to make sure that DNS points the domain to the production server.

If this isn't the answer you need, what does "it's no" working mean? Are there error messages? How does the site behave incorrectly?

Enrique,

I forgot to mention this tutorial: http://www.dnncreative.com/Localhos...fault.aspx

Even though it is an older tutorial, the steps remain the same.
