I have successfully recreated the error I was getting when trying to follow the tutorial on creating DNN4 modules (http://www.adefwebserver.com/DotNetNukeHELP/DNN_Module4/DotNetNuke_module_4.htm). This is the page I get to and I am on the create the table section. As soon as I try and go to the SQL script executer under the host menu this is the error that I get

What is this? Why am I getting this error? I'm not trying to install DNN. Why is trying to install it? I've done everything in the tutorial step by step being very careful not to skip anything and then this happens. The database is on, I've checked the connection string in the web.config and it's correct.

Thanks
