Hi -

Don't think I'm that far ahead of you then!

I was handed a very old version with a non-functional database link.

First thing to check is in the web.config file and how its relating to the database. Somewhere near line 50 you will have the database config block.

Step 1 is - where is your database, and what version of SQL is it? This very exactly determines what the connectionString needs to be saying.

Step 2 will then be making sure the two match up.

Step 3 will be determined by the outcome of that.

I have passed that problem to follow the links below.

• https://docs.umbraco.com/umbraco-cms/fundamentals/setup/install/visual-studio
• https://docs.umbraco.com/umbraco-cms/fundamentals/setup/server-setup/iis I was running instruction to CLI command and end up with that problerm. If you don't mind I have a new problem ,right now. i have published my umbraco project and set up IIS site but my site page display this message 'Welcome to your Umbraco installation You're seeing this wonderful page because your website doesn't contain any published content yet.' when I try to access admin site /umbraco page redirecting and displays this message below. error:invalid_request error_description:The mandatory 'code_challenge' parameter is missing. error_uri:https://documentation.openiddict.com/errors/ID2029 Could you please assist me with this? I am trying to get an Umbraco CMS site up and running on IIS for the first time, and I am facing difficulties.

I'm guessing you are starting with a latest version Umbraco? I'm half way through migrating to v8.7 at the moment, but would guess that one of the config files in the installed set needs this value adding to one of the lines?

Try googling the error message or do an open search on this site.

Any solution to this problem yet? I've ran into the same issue with latest version of umbraco!

is working on a reply...
