Has anybody gone live with a site that they created from the personal web site kit? If so, can you tell me who you recommend as a host?

I use Crystal Tech's free .Net 2.0 hosting service (www.crystaltech.com), but as of right now, they don't have SQL Server 2005, so I had to convert the database to SQL Server 2000 - not that big of a deal.   My sample is www.PIBZone.com.

Thank you so much for the info. Your site looks great!

I'm pretty new to SQL. Can you tell me how you converted the database to SQL Server 2000?

Thanks!

I just managed to figure out how to go live with the Personal Website. I use SeekDotNet.com as web host using their Dev package for $7 per month. They support ASP2.0Beta with all their packages, but you have to ask them specifically to set it up for you. It includes one MSSQL Server 2000 database account. They offered to set up a SQLExpress db for me (so that I could upload the aspnetdb.mdf membership database set up by asp.net) but they wanted me to go to their Premium package for $50+ per month.

However you can use use the one MSSQL 2000 DSN to store both the personal.mdf and the aspnetdb.mdf dbs that are set up by default with the Personal Website. 

I created a new MSSQL db on seekdotnet. They ask for a .sql file to initalize the tables, and I used the personal.sql file found in this forum to set up the tables used in personal.mdf. After creation, the SeekDotNet webhost has a control panel that shows the MSSQL information you will need to edit your web.config in the root directory of your Personal WebSite. It includes the DataSource url, the database name, User and connection string for .NET. Check your webhost for a similar information panel.

Then I ran the utility aspnet_regsql.exe from command window. On my PC, this is located in the C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50215 folder. Without any switches, it pops up a GUI uitlity and walks you through the initialization of your database. It will add to an exisiting database. You will need to enter the Datasource, User name, Password etc as defined by your webhost. This utitlity creates the tables (procs etc) that are used in the aspnetdb.mdf file that controls membership to your website(s). So now the tables for both the personal.mdf and aspnetdb.mdf databases are created in the single SQL 2000 db on my webhost.

This Microsoft staffer blog was a big help  http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2005/08/25/423703.aspx

In Visual Web Developer I entered the same datasource info in the 'Add Data Connection' window and saved that into my PWS Project. Then I clicked Website > Asp.net Configuration > Security and added an adminsitration user to this database. You can add other users here too if you wish.

Also in Visual Web Developer I edited the web.config file to point the Connections to the SQL2000 database. Substitute your information as defined by your web hosts control panel:

<add name="Personal" connectionString="Data Source=yourwebhostdatasource;Initial Catalog=yourwebhostdsname;Persist Security Info=True; User ID=youruserID;pwd=yourpwd"/>

<remove name="LocalSqlServer"/>
<add name="LocalSqlServer" connectionString="Data Source=yourwebhostdatasource; Initial Catalog=yourwebshostdsname;user id=yourwebhostdsname;pwd=yourpwd" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/>


Also in web.config, remember to set <customErrors mode="Off"/> in <system.web> so that you will get errors returned to you while you are going through testing. In VWD, Website > Copy Web Site and enter the ftp information for your website and copy all the files and the folder structure up. You do not need to copy up the large .mdf and .ldf files in the App_Data folder, since you will not be using them.

I am now live with the Personal Web Site, and I am filling out the pages. I hope I got this information correct and it works for you. Good luck.

Crystaltech.

I've made a lot of modifications too. Most of them are admin functions, though, you won't be able to see. But you get the idea. :)
