Hi,

While uninstalling a test instance of Lansweeper that I was trying to connect to our main instance, it dropped the Lansweeper DB on the MS SQL server.

I restored the DB from a backup from the night before and re-linked the users, but Lansweeper won't connect to the database from IIS anymore, even though the connection string is the same.

How can I restore the database so that Lansweeper can use it?

Also, how do I setup a multi-site installation?

Please contact support@lansweeper.com and provide us with:
• Screenshot of the error message you are seeing.
• Any install logs present in Program Files (x86)\Lansweeper\Install on your Lansweeper server.
• Program Files (x86)\Lansweeper\Service\Errorlog.txt.
• Program Files (x86)\Lansweeper\Service\Lansweeperservice.exe.config.
• Program Files (x86)\Lansweeper\Website\web.config.

Instructions can be found in our online documentation, page 17 and beyond: http://www.lansweeper.com/documentation.pdf
When installing a secondary scanning server, make sure you DO NOT check the checkbox in front of "Lansweeper Database", or you'll be overwriting your existing database.
