To take full advantage of ASP.NET's architecture and performance capabilities, you should install the ASP.NET database schema. The .NET Framework defines a set of elements that implement configuration settings, and the ASP.NET configuration schema contains elements that control how ASP.NET Web applications behave.

You can set up the ASP.NET schema when you create a new database in your hosting manager or after you create a SQL Server database.

To Set up Your SQL Server Database with the ASP.NET Schema

  1. Log in to your Account Manager.
  2. In the My Products section, select Hosting.
  3. Next to the hosting account you want to modify, click Manage Account.
  4. In the Databases section of the Hosting Control Center, click the SQL Server icon.
  5. Click Create Database.
  6. Enter a database description.
  7. To use DSN with this database, select Create DSN.
  8. To add ASP schema, select ASP Schema.
  9. Enter a database/user name and password, and then click Ok.

If you already have a SQL Server set up, you can add support for the SQL Server ASP.Net by clicking on the pencil icon next to your database and then click Install next to ASP Schema.
