Hi Folks,

I am hoping someone has seen this before.  I download the latest DNN install package and installed it on my development machine - Windows Server 2008/ II 7.0/SQL Server 2008.  The "Auto" install went fine (note, I modified the two connection strings in the web.config to point to an empty DNN databaes I created in my local SQL Server 2008) and I see no errors in the install process.  However, when I click the link at the bottom of the page to go to launch DNN for the first time I get the following error after a few moments:

===================================================================

Server Error in '/HIPOMDNN' Application.

Unable to load default file registration provider

Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

Exception Details: System.Configuration.Provider.ProviderException: Unable to load default file registration provider

Source Error:

Version Information: Microsoft .NET Framework Version:4.0.30319; ASP.NET Version:4.0.30319.276 

 ============================================================================

Note that I only have the one "clientDependency" section in my web.config file (see Configuration section below).  Am I suppose to have more??

Note that DNN is installed under the Default Web Sites in IIS as an Application, and the application is running under a .Net 4.0 AppPool with identity NetworkService, and I have given NetworkService Full access to the root of the physical path of the DNN site.  The fact that the intial install worked fine would seem to suggest that IIS is happy, however.

Really stumped on this.  Does anyone know what the problem is?

Thanks,
Rod
