    How to run an umbraco project from existing files in WebMatrix?

    Hi

    I had someone develop an umbraco site for me using WebMatrix. They sent the code files over to me. I tried the "site from folder" option in WebMatrix. But when I run it, it shows a server error. Then i created an umbraco project from the webgallery and copied over the files, got the same error

    is there a fault in the code? or is there a more appropriate way to run it?

    Sorry if the question seems silly, i'm a noob.

     

    thanks.

    Have you checked the connection strings in the web.config? It sounds as though you could be having problems establishing a connection to the database.
