=?iso-8859-1?Q?Stig_Kulvedr=F8sten?=

I've just installed Windows Vista with Visual Studio.Net 2005 and SQL Server
Express Advanced Edition.
When installation of vs.net and sql server was finished I tried to run one
of my sites right away.

This is the error I got:
CREATE DATABASE permission denied in database 'master'.
An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file
E:\Websites\Site\App_Data\site_db.mdf failed. A database with the same name
exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share.

My connectionstring looks like this: "Data
Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|\site_db.mdf;Integrated
Security=True;User Instance=False"

Any suggestions?

Try adding :"Initial Catalog=<your database name>" to the ConnectionString.
