I am in the process of deploying a new instance of Master Data Services. I have four environments: Development, System Integration, User Acceptance and Production. MDS is running find in the development environment. Now I want to port it to my SIT environment. Here's what I did:
1. Backup MDS database from Development server
2. Restore MDS database to SIT server
3. Run the commands found in this article: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/1766.troubleshoot-master-data-services-database-restore.aspx
4. On my web server, setup a new application pointing to the SIT server. Setup worked fine.
5. Try to browse to the new site, referencing the just-restored database on the SIT server. IE says "Website found. Waiting for reply..." but that's all. No reply is received and the home page for MDS never displays.
What might I be missing?
