Hi guys, I'm new of Umbraco and I'm rolling hours of study about it. Now, today I attempt to move an umbraco local installation (made with webmatrix) online, on my web server (TopHost). I'm not able to see my Umbraco website...only the hoster welcome page....please...help me !!! Maybe that I'll need to modify something or the config file....let me know how to....I'm still stucked....I'd like to work and learn about umbraco on my Ipad too...everywhere.;) Waiting for a resolutive answer!!! Happy new Year to Everybody!!!! ;)
Thanks for the ready answer Alex, I read somewhere that I need just copy the local folder installation...I just copied all the folder containing the Umbraco website...
I'm a novice about Umbraco web hosting installation, please let me know the right steps to do to have my Umbraco website working on a web-host space....thanks a lot Alex for your interest to my question;) I appreciate it a lot!
You dont need all folders, the main things is to upload only required folders, change config file to live environment and set right folders permissions at the live server.
Thanks Alex for your Answer, i was reading best practices like you suggest, but I'm still not able to understand how to set up and migrate online an Umbraco website. The suggested article is relevant for me only about file permissions, but the missing part is....witch folders I need to move on my webserver and how set up all the configuration stuff....please let me know if some other article from Umbraco Communities that can explain me step to step how set up and migrate a working Umbraco website from local to web hosting space. Thanks:)

Hi Giuseppe,
Did you create site in the iis ? Did you check connection string ? What files did you upload to the server ?
Thanks
