I´ve a project in github and i did clone it to a different machine, but i´m geting this error: Umbraco cannot start. A connection string is configured but the Umbraco cannot connect to the database
What sort of database is your working version of Umbraco using? (I.e. on the machine that you cloned it from)
Is it using Microsoft SQL CE? Full Microsoft SQL server? MySql?
Depending on which version you are using the cause varies but essentially it means your current machine cannot talk to the database that the other machine can :-)
Does the new machine have Microsoft SQL Management Studio installed? If so, can it connect to the database in question.
The error you are seeing tells me that there is likely to be an issue in that your new machine cannot talk the SQL server where the database is hosted so that would be where I'd start checking.
