hi,

I'm trying to install DNN 4.07 on WindowsXP,IIS 5 ,  ASP.NET 2.0. SQL2005 express using the DNN 4 starter kit in VWD2005

I added the database.mdf in VWD

DDN 4 installs ok  to the point I can start the build.

The Install page loads,   I choose internet install,  pass the directory permissions test,  pass the database connection.

When I hit "Next" The red squares scroll across the install web page forever.  The database scripts never install the database.

Web.config is set up for Forms authentication.

IIS is set for anonymous authentication.  On the ASP.NET tab in IIS manager, it is set for ASP.NET 2.0.  On the Edit Configuration,  ASP.NET is set to Windows Authentication by default.  When I change it to forms I get an error when the build is ran.

Also I don't have a ASPNET or NETWORK SERVICE account on the local machine,  which is strange.  I thought an account was created when ASP.NET is installed

I read the install guide in the resources/documents,  and it does not resemble the install proccess on my DNN install page,  but that artical is 1.5 years old.

any clues?

Thanks

KK

Same kinda deal I had ...

I had the same issue, and posts here mentioned something about the database permissions just not being right.  This is problably because (since I've been creating logins in MSSQL for years) I created the login the way I always have, which worked for other apps but evidently not DNN.

Then I found this little gem:  http://seablick.com/blog/tabid/53/articletype/articleview/articleid/71/a-newbies-guide-to-installing-dotnetnuke.aspx, followed it to a "T", and I was good to go.

 

HTH.
