Hi friends... I was thinking i can finally say that i have no issues with installing DNN when suddenly a lot of them started to happen.i will start with this one and explain that what i have done:

I wanted to install a DNN on my server. there i created a website using Plesk V.10 and copied the files via ftp to the directory,  given full permission to IWPD user. created the DB and given the user pass to it and changed the user and pass in webconfig. but when i wanted to browse it i reached this error

Server Error in '/' Application.

The resource cannot be found.

Description: HTTP 404. The resource you are looking for (or one of its dependencies) could have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.  Please review the following URL and make sure that it is spelled correctly.Requested URL: /Default.aspx

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Then i tried to install it on my local computer again which i had changed the OS of it to windows 7 and got another issue there with this error:

Server Error in '/' Application.

Configuration Error

Description: An error occurred during the processing of a configuration file required to service this request. Please review the specific error details below and modify your configuration file appropriately.

Parser Error Message: It is an error to use a section registered as allowDefinition='MachineToApplication' beyond application level.  This error can be caused by a virtual directory not being configured as an application in IIS.

Source Error:

Line 100: </system.webServer> Line 101: <system.web> Line 102: <machineKey validationKey="F9D1A2D3E1D3E2F7B3D9F90FF3965ABDAC304902" decryptionKey="F9D1A2D3E1D3E2F7B3D9F90FF3965ABDAC304902F8D923AC" decryption="3DES" validation="SHA1"/> Line 103: <!-- HttpModules for Common Functionality --> Line 104: <httpModules>

Source File: C:\inetpub\wwwroot\mydnn\web.config    Line: 102 

and another with this:

HTTP Error 500.19 - Internal Server Error

The requested page cannot be accessed because the related configuration data for the page is invalid.

I think my issue must be with IIS but i have no idea what to do.

 thanks in advance

That error typically means the entry for the website wasn't created in IIS. I'd open a ticket with your hosting company and ask them to correct it.

did you install DNN in the root of your IIS website (and not inside a folder of another web app)?
