Richard you have been very informative and patient, thanks so much. 

In IIS I have been right-clicking the Sites node and selecting Add Website. From the tutorial video I thought this was the correct way to create the website.

I'm going to try this tonight if I get a chance to dive back in.

It does create a web site.

I'm not saying it's wrong and it may well be what's in that tutorial. On the web there are often many ways of getting broadly similar results.

It will be fine so long as you make sure you have it started.

If you do create an application under the default web site - say AppX then you may need to adapt the url when you navigate to the site. It'll be something like http://localhost/AppX.

We are running into an error during the install:

Unable to find the requested .Net Framework Data Provider.  It may not be installed.

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.ArgumentException: Unable to find the requested .Net Framework Data Provider.  It may not be installed.

Could this be because we are using SQL 2012 enterprise? Should we just stick to 2010 express?

I doubt it.

So long as you have at least the pre-requisite version I doubt it makes any difference. As far as I know the provider is part of .Net, not part of SQL Server. I've certainly installed it with 2012 Express. I'd be more than a bit astonished if it did not work with Enterprise.

Ok here is what I've done from start to finish.

Unblock the install zip.
Extract to c:\inetpub\wwwroot\dnndev.me
Create new site in IIS
Change .NET to 4.0 from 2.0
Create Database dnndev.me
Create Login iis apppool\dnndev.me
-gave that user db_owner
Created iis apppool\dnndev.me in the security tab for the folder dnndev.me
-gave full control to it

Haven't navigated to website yet. Wanted to ask now to see if I am missing something. When I check the connection in IIS it tells me authorization fails for pass-through authentication. This is where in the past few installation attempts I changed it to a specific user for authentication.

I am still on the Win7 VM at the moment and logged in as the administrator.

 Add also 'IUSR' user to your root Folder with read permissions. Be sure you inherit the Setting for all files and subfolders!

On IIS be sure the Handler execute permissions are set for scripts and executables.
