Sorry. English is not my first language

I am trying to install DNN 4.5.0 and/or DNN 4.5.1 on the machine I use for development. I did the following:

1.) Extracted zip files DotNetNuke_04.05.00_Install.zip and DotNetNuke_04.05.01_Install.zip to E:\DNN450 and E:\DNN451 respectively .

2.) Created virtual directory in IIS 5.1 and pointed to E:\DNN450 and E:\DNN451

3.) Made sure IIS is using .NET 2.0

4.) Set permissions for ASPNET User Account under Security tab for each folder (Full control).

5.) Created databases called DNN450 and DNN451 in SQL Server 2000 (also I tried in SQL Server 2005).

6.) Created Login/user dnn for DNN450 and DNN451 databases and set password. The user is dbo_owner in both databases.

7.) Changed file web.config and set connection string to use uid=dnn_user and its password. ("source=(local); Database=DNN451;uid=dnn_login;pwd=xxx")

8.) Open IE7. Navigate to http://localhost/dnn450 or http://localhost/dnn451

9.) Nothing happens. I see that the processor works and works but nothing happens.

10.) Go to database DNN451 and I see one table “Version” without records. Also exists the store procedures FindDatabaseVersion, GetDatabaseVersion and UpdateDatabaseVersion.

11.) Re-open IE7. Navigate to http://localhost/dnn450 or http://localhost/dnn451

12.) Nothing happens. I see that the processor works and works but nothing happens.

13.) Open Firefox. Navigate to http://localhost/dnn450 or http://localhost/dnn451

14.) I get the message: Firefox has detected that the server is redirect the request for this direction in a form that never will be completed.

15.) I repeated this process three times in two different pc's always with the same result.

16.) Re-open Firefox. Navigate to http://localhost/dnn451/Install/InstallWizard.aspx

17.) I get the message: Firefox has detected that the server is redirect the request for this direction in a form that never will be completed.


Please help me.

How I start the Install Wizard? 

What I am doing wrong?

Thanks

did you set default.aspx as default document in your IIS settings? Before retrying clean you database!

Anything in IIS logs or event logs?  Did you set the virtual directory as an application?

Yes. Default.aspx is the default document. Also I tried with http://localhost/dnn541/default.aspx with the same result.

Thanks

When I have done installs in the past it has taken 2-3 minutes at times for me to see any progress via IE when doing the install.  The one thing to check is to make sure that you have the connection strings set correctly for both databasse connections.  Another thing you might want to check is your system event log to see if ASP.NET is recording any errors.
