    Default Question about Admin on New Development Site

    We are running aspdnsf 7.1.0.0.
    We recently created a development account, and are having a problem running administration on it. The new site comes up fine, but when we try to admin it we are actually running admin on the live site - we can tell as the homepage topic is showing the live info rather than the dev info.
    We use https://www.sitename.com/adminname/default.aspx to login as the admin - we just change "sitename" from the live site to the development site.
    Can someone please let us know where these values are set: AppLogic.LiveServer and AppLogic.GetStoreHTTPLocation? We need the table name record ids.

    Please check the value of the AppConfig: LiveServer and also set the AppConfig: UseLiveTransactions to false. See if that works for you...

    I suggest also bounce web site (start/stop) after you make the change previously suggested. I noticed, after I copy prod to test and do changes to AppConfig, test site admin screen still is not displayed right away.

    Don't forget to also change the DBConn string in the web.config file (the settings used to connect the site to the database) if you intend on using a development database and not the live database. If you do not change this the development site, no matter how you hit it, will always be using live data and any changes will be reflected on the live site.

    Thanks for your replies - but all suggestions had been done before we posted this issue.
    We believe the issue may have something to do with the security certificate. How can we admin the development account - which is on the same server as the live account - without https? (it is currently forcing redirect to https)

    Well, you could try editing the certificate via IIS.
