Hello There, I am working on a very old project developed using dotnetnuke version 4.4.0. Currently I am trying to install the project on a test server to fix its some bugs. I have followed the limitted resources about that version on the net and configured the project. But I get this error " Connection Error(s): You must choose a Database Type" I have searched about it, but it seems that no one had this problem before, any help would be highly appriciated. Note: dotnetnuke version 4.4.0. sql server 2008 r2 windows 10 Bests
Are you trying to install modules that are installed on another DNN installation? If so, you may be able to edit those modules in the other site and "Create Module." This will create zip files that you can use to install in the new installation. You may run into some issues here regarding the Manifest files that get created. If you have an option to use existing manifest files, try that option first. Please note that any module data in the old site will not be transferred. First you need to install the modules and then you need to move the data. This could be a fairly big project if the modules do not support import and export.
You will be much better off if you can make a copy of the existing site and move it to your other environment. Most likely, that can save you days of work.
