Server 2016.

(I did have it working then did some script code and 503 error.)

I have managed to get the schedule service to run. I have cecked and double checked the files and correct config's.

Ent server and server both show in browser, portal when run still gives 503 error.

All items are running. (pools/services etc...)

Can you explain the "did some script code and 503 error"?

If you did any custom code the most easy is to stick with SolidCP default and simply push over the full original portal files back into place. (or a backup if you have it).

Just short of putting a hammer through server.

I have removed database, sql stuff and solidcp. Reinstalled all and setup as previous.

Still getting the 503 error.

Scheduler is running. Lines where necessary adjusted.

this is the line i use for db connection:

<add name="EnterpriseServer" connectionString="JUNGLESERVER3SQLEXPRESS;database=SolidCP;uid=user;pwd=128bitencryption;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />

"jungle..........; part right or should this be server=..................?
