I have been trying to setup DNN7 on windows XP with no success.  This is *incredibly* frustrating for a software framework that is supposed to make development easier that is so cumbersome in its setup.

Virtual directory is set up.  Install package is copied into the drive's directory specified in the virtual directory.  When running Web Matrix, the URL of "http://localhost:80 produces the following error:  Directory Listing Denied This Virtual Directory does not allow contents to be listed." error.  However, the "Directory Browsing" has been allowed.

So, I typed in the full URL (http://localhost/dotnetnuke/default.aspx) to continue the setup but received the following error: 

DotNetNuke Error

System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'c:\inetpub\wwwroot\DotNetNuke\Install\DotNetNuke.install.config' is denied. at System.IO.__Error.WinIOError(Int32 errorCode, String maybeFullPath) at System.IO.File.InternalCopy(String sourceFileName, String destFileName, Boolean overwrite) at System.IO.File.Copy(String sourceFileName, String destFileName) at DotNetNuke.Services.Install.InstallWizard.OnInit(EventArgs e) at System.Web.UI.Control.InitRecursive(Control namingContainer) at System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequestMain(Boolean includeStagesBeforeAsyncPoint, Boolean includeStagesAfterAsyncPoint)

Any help is greatly appreciated.  Thanks.
